mrflynn03 Posted December 23, 2018 Report Share Posted December 23, 2018 I had alligator tail when I was in Louisiana. People seem to think that is weird. I liked it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steubenhoosier Posted December 24, 2018 Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 alligator is excellent. In Aruba once and they served ostrich. Very good. Cross between lamb and beef. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steubenhoosier Posted December 24, 2018 Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 And, in Cabo one year and the restaurant served an appetizer that made a spread out of corn fungus. Put it on crackers or bread. I didn't try it, but my wife said that it was good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierhoopster Posted December 24, 2018 Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 In Moscow, ordered a pizza and it came -- with egg in the middle. No -- no way did I even try that. Here in TX, chicken and waffles is now the rage. As in waffles with fried chicken on top. It's actually pretty good, strangely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drroogh Posted December 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 Speaking of Mexico I was in Mexico and stopped in a restaurant. There was a lot lost in the translation but pretty sure I ended up with horse. It was also very tasty. Course how can you go wrong with Mexican seasoning?😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speaking of Russia odd food you don’t normally have, Sturgeon is excellent! Also Russian caviar is far superior! Haven’t seen any pizza with eggs but I would have tried it at least 😋 Edited December 24, 2018 by Drroogh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've tried lots of food -- but man when you stick eggs in the middle of my favorite dish, pizza, it's just wrong! There's nothing like Russian vodka. When I was there, '88, I had "Siberskaya" vodka, like a fresh mountain spring with alcohol, oh man was it good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drroogh Posted December 24, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2018 (edited) I’m generally with you on borscht but my friends mother is originally Ukrainian and makes a very good Ukrainian version! Also I enjoy Russian soylonka soup, I think it’s mushroom cucumber based with some meat. And of course you are right about Real Russian Vodka!

I liked head cheese when I was a teenager but then one day I almost threw up and haven’t touched it since! May have just been bad but not going there again!

That was my thought but it was right there on the main menu and I don’t think the restaurant is open in the morning. Maybe it’s like breakfast all day?
