Country: | An Austrian made tuna salad in Puerto Mogan, Gran Canaria. And yes, the restaurant was owned and run by Austrians. That was the best meal I have ever had.

Country: | Well fast food is not for me, if our Mc Donnalds had such big burgers like you lucky son of a guns have there in the US I would have bought it, but here it is nothing. I can eat ten of there biggest ones and still be hungry.
KFC sucks here. I would rather make my own pizza, hamburgers and hotdogs before I would go and get it from a fast food place. My own is always better, but my mom makes the best burgers.

Maybe you need a native NY'er as a tour guide!!!

| Nothing special about NYC food. Nothing at all.
One of the great things about southern california is the wide variety of foods fom around the world, and of all regions of the USA. I've found it to be the best.
Best food oversea's I had was in Singapore.

I've found it to be the best. | From Encino to Laguna Beach, From Redondo to Hollywood, Universal City, Santa Monica to Westwood, and even Old Towne in San Diego I've been there, there's "good" food there but it doesn't hold a rats ass hair to NYC (and the surrounding areas) food - evidently you've done the tourist tour of NYC; there are thousands of restaurants within Manhattan and in the other 5 boroughs that make California Restaurants look like remnants from the bottom of a McDonald's trash can!!
Just Italian restaurants alone, there isn't one in So Cal (and that's from the SF Valley to SD) that comes close to anything found in Little Italy. Shoot, most "good" So Cal Italian Resturants don't even make their own sauces and don't even have parm or peppers on the table!!!!!
The only Pizza in So Cal that's worth a sh*t is Brooklyn Pizza just off the Hermosa strand and it was founded by a guy from Brooklyn!!!
I you've ever been there you'll find the place is alwys crowded and its not becuase they serve Budwiser there!!! :P Quote: |

| I lived in Hermosa for several years. My hangout was "Brewski's"
Theres plenty of great eateries here in so cal. Italian among them. Best chinese/japanese/korean/thai and vietnamese foods are here as well. Even Indian food is better here than in the "homeland".
Just because you couldnt find the good places to eat, doesnt mean they dont exist!

You just said it - GOOD places, and there are plenty in So Cal, New York has great places!! I take it you probably didn't seemuch outside of Manhattan and even there you needed to know where to go....

| The poopdeck? heheheheheh, that was a fun place.
There was a small bar next to it........ had a mirrored window where you could sit down, drink a beer and watch the scantilly clad ladies walk by, and they couldnt see you. More than one drink was spilled when a big boobed woman would come up to the glass and adjust her top, not knowing we were on the other side watching, heheheheheheh
