If I were to visit your country, what food or drink must I try?
Would we go to the local restaurant around the corner, or would you cook up a storm in the kitchen?
If I had the chance to come and visit you, what would you cook for me while I was there? Do you make a to die for Bolognese, or is there a little mom and pop's restaurant that makes food just like your Nona? Perhaps fish and chips? The local pizza shop and a nearby park? Sunrise by the water with coffee and appelflappen?
I would probably fire up the grill and toss on some form of meat and some veggies. I would make some homemade mac and cheese and for dessert probably a pie (yes John, with ice cream). Or do I just go for ramen? The rest of the evening would probably be enjoyed outside at the firepit enjoying each other's company.

I'm just across the ditch in NZ, sounds worthy of the trip over! You had me at your scrambled eggs, mainly because you serve with steamed broccoli, yum! 😍 Though dessert needs to be regular, full sugar jello and those fruits need some whipped...
Read more🤣 awesome!
With a campfire a ........ on a stick :D
🤣😂🤣 yes!
Personally, I'd probably fire up my 800° grill and treat you to some nice steaks along woth oven potatoes and parsley roots and leeks from a Dutch oven. Now this is not exactly typical of my country 😊 For typical German dishes I'd suggest Sauerbraten with dumplings and of course Currywurst 😋
😋 oh my goodness! Yes please! You know what I like for sure. 😁
