They have a lot of good fish dishes but I wouldn't be opposed to dropping it to edible
>>14664139
I will fight anyone who disagrees on this one tho

>>14664124
Can you post your Anime figurines and your Hot-glue pics.

>>14664142
You can make a case for France and maybe Italy but Japanese is shit. Uses the same flavors for 99% of dishes and Chinese food has everything Japanese has and more

>>14664154
It's true that s oy sauce, dashi, miso, rice, and tofu are used as the base for most of the dishes but you could make the same argument about almost any cuisine. There's enough variety within those base ingredients and the various things which they're combined with (soba, udon, various meats and vegetables) to create consistently unique and delicious dishes. Chinese cuisine has nothing like Hoto, soba, or tempura udon for example.

I love the same poopaloo curry mix 1,000 times over slightly differently cut rice and cheese, very epic

>could make the same argument about almost any cuisine.
Nah. Look at thai food for example. some dishes will have tamarind, different types of peppers, and herbs, while others will have coconut milk, soy sauce, fish sauce different spices etc etc. Chinese food regions such as cantonese will be different to szechuan and the such. While if we use Japanese seafood as an example, 99% will have the same soy, sake, dashi and sometimes miso marinade.

Do you eat hamsters and guinea pigs?

>>14664124
I left off the ones that I haven't tried. I'm not really picky, I like most food, but whatever the UK is doing, that is unholy.

>>14664124
This was really hard but something like this I guess but I would like to add that I don't consider okay bad it's just okay and bad is not necessarily horrible it's just the first thing that comes to mind when I hear it but it doesn't mean that there aren't okay and maybe even good dishes.

>>14664223
Not him but it's Argentinian and I was considering them for god tier without even trying their food they are more or less honorary germans with some sweetass grillmagic going on, had an argentinian anon showing off some local cuisine the other day

>>14664880
They have Scandinavian countries on bad or worse so I suspect trolling I feel for you ausbro

>>14664913
Nordic food is bland, also Surströmming alone is a justification for their rank.

>>14664880
Fellow ausbro here, I legit cant think of any unique cuisine we have thats worth mentioning.

>>14664926

Keep working on the English, Chang.

>>14664917
That's just the thing it isn't in any way bland, sure we don't over season everything with chili 'cause we don't have chili but we also don't need to hide our great meatflavor because it isn't spoiled and when it is then it's simply a feature such as Surströmming which is just one small part of basically a large buffé table of all sorts of different food that you eat at Swedens most sacred holiday and isn't a fair representation of our whole cuisine (doesn't taste bad either just smells a bit)

>>14664858
This was clearly made by some nordic faggot. No your food isn't that good.
It's all potatoes, bland sauces and fish.
>"b-but we used r-rye in this dish"
>"a-and theres a pepper/salt shaker on the table if it's not spicy enough"

>>14665033
You're danish, aren't you.

As someone who has lived in Japan for over 4 years now, I am not sure why you retard weebs rank Japanese food so high.

>>14665054
Japanese food is much blander than nordic stuff.

>>14664124

>ITT
italy and japan are top tier

>>14665054
I did have Thai as godly as well so it's not like I don't like spicy food and a lot of potatoes/pasta as opposed to what exactly, rice?

If you have quality products that aren't spoiled then you can have milder spices and herbs that blend together but lets you taste all the nuances and you do know we eat a whole lot of pork, beef, elk/moose, deer, chicken and so on as well right..?

Caviar is mainly something you have for breakfast or with eggs.

>>14665123
Sweden at the bottom with Best Korea, Ethiopia and Finland but Italy and Japan at the top, surely you jist.

>>14665058
No but I've been to Copenhagen

>>14664124
Wait what, Monaco has authentic cuisine? What are the most popular ones?

>>14665149

A reminder that SERVING UP RAW SLICES OF FISH IS NOT """COOKING"""!

actual nippon cooking is very mild and lacking of excitement

>>14664124
>Germany that high
>Spain that low

>>14664892
but that quote was about british fish dishes

>>14664124
English "cuisine" should be on the bottom of every list

>>14665054
>This was clearly made by some nordic faggot. No your food isn't that good.
>It's all potatoes, bland sauces and fish.

Literally ALL real food is potatoes, sauce and meat/fish. Everything else is shitty gimmicks.

>>14665486

I like fish and chips, and I don't think any cuisine that includes even one really delish dish can be on the bottom of the list when 90% of the world's food is edible only technically.

>>14665289

Food should not be "exciting", food should be reliable, comforting and safe. Knife fights and cocaine are exciting.

>>14664124
>Japan that high

Nigger, pls. Real jap food is almost inedible.

>>14666105

Japanese food is fucking great as long as you never eat any type of sushi. Sushi is fucking disgusting.

>>14664124

south americans are delusional. absolutely delusional

>>14666237
That's Indonesia you dumbfuck.

>for everyone confused as to why italy and japan are at the top of every list
those two countries are the most autistic with their product.
>DOP
the insane amount of detail and effort that is given to so many products in italy and japan is leaps and bounds ahead of any country. if you were to ask
>"where can i find the best of X ingredient"
it is extremely common for the answer to be in italy or japan, and if not, it's because that product simply can't grow in that country or italy and japan may not have the best but they have a close second or third.
>"there's no technique for raw fish!"
yes exactly. that's because the japanese have the highest quality seafood across the board. so high quality that it doesn't even need to be fucking cooked. and when something does need to be cooked in japan like fucking noodles you know that some guy who's was forced to run the family business instead of going to harvard is in the back cranking out the most perfect autistic machine-like noodles that exists.
>a chef is only as good as the product they cooking with
italy has this same mentality of keeping recipes super fucking simple to reflect the insane quality of the product. no reason of learning a million french techniques and using tweezers to make a visual piece of art that doesn't hold up in your mouth. it starts with farmers and their dedication to making things to insane taste rather than producing for bulk (and there's nothing wrong with the latter because it does save people from starvation)

>>14666113
Sushi is very subjective, you either absolutely love it or you completely fucking hate it. I can see which side you are on

>>14666942
Thanks for the explanation Bling Bling

>>14664124
China needs to be bumped way the hell down with the fuck shit they be eating.

>>14666942

>>14664156
What is an interesting argie dish other than empanadas?

>>14667116
Spaghetti

>>14667039
you're missing the point. the effort isn't coming from the chefs its coming from the farmers.
lets talk about beef
here are some links on beef grading and how wagyu compares to the highest quality beef in the US and australia

>layman's terms
the quality is so fucking high that the effort the chef puts in really doesn't fucking matter
