Rank differs from day to day.

IT depends on what you had to eat previously, what happened during the day (e.g. stress, exercise), what you feel like.

Also how much drink you may have consumed the previous night.

Any permanent ranking is just plain ignorant faggotry.

Vietnamese is number one because even though pho is great, it's banh mi that smashes every other Asian dish, not to mention fresh spring rolls, pork stirfry, and shitloads of other amazing mixes of food.

>ranking Japanese or Korean highly
I live in Japan and most of my food is foreign cuisine because Japanese cuisine is extremely bland and repetitive. It's not bad, but it's not creative at all. Korean is mostly spicy shit; I like bbq but it's pretty much the sushi/pho of Korea and does not excuse the rest of their fermented shit.

Chinese is amazing. Sweet and sour ribs, oyster sauce potatoes, chili rice, dan-dan mian, allll the dumplings, holy shit. Taiwanese is like a cleaner, city-boy version of Chinese and it's amazing, especially tea eggs, fried chicken, etc

ethnic chinese (tionghoa) are all over indo, but most indo don't eat tionghoa food with chopsticks at all. mie/mi goreng is tionghoa, but it's not eaten with chopsticks. see?
the only foods eaten with chopsticks by indo are purely cantonese/chinese foods by recent immigrants and japanese foods that are very popular right now. everything else is with hands or fork or spoon.
the number of ethnic chinese or tionghoa in indonesia doesn't much matter. many americans are ethnically irish but don't know what colcannon is just as many indonesian who are ethnic chinese don't often use chopsticks. after many years and generations, most people of different ethnocultural background lose many parts of their original culture and adopt some parts of the culture of their new place of residence, creating a third culture that is something of a mishmash between the two, distinct from both.

a hilarious amount of Korean cuisine includes kimchi or is based on it; a lot of non-kimchi food still rely on fermentation and/or chili. here's the thing: I hate kimchi. I'm a huge cuisine buff, love a lot of Asian food, come to love chili and quite a lot of strange products that just aren't common in the west, but I simply can't stand kimchi or anything that tastes like it. Somehow the entire peninsula thought it a grand idea to base their entire cuisine around kimchi. How can you have such a one-trick pony, especially when it tastes so fucking gross?

[Anonymous No.4834734]

>>4834716
pretty much every Asian country has their equivalent of sushi, the only legitimacy is provided by the first country to have the international marketing power to claim it, and that's Japan, who also claims that yakiniku "is a post-war invention" even though they had claimed the entirety of Korea for the half-century prior to the war and ate their fair share of bulgogi as an imperial dish.

point is, no country should be claiming sushi as a dish unique to its cuisine. it's just Asian cuisine, not much else, like egg/spring rolls (and in some countries spring rolls ARE sushi)

What in god's name are you talking about? In Japan, yakiniku is considered Korean.

[Anonymous No.4834750]

>>4834747
Today, it commonly refers to a Japanese style of cooking bite-sized meat (usually beef and offal) and vegetables on gridirons or griddles over flame of wood charcoals carbonized by dry distillation (sumibi, 炭火) or gas/electric grill. In North America, mainland China and Taiwan, Yakiniku is also referred to as "Japanese barbecue"[10] while in Japan the origin has become a subject of debate, though it is conventionally considered to be Korean cuisine. In 2002 the NHK program NHK Ningen Kouza (NHK人間講座, literally NHK Humanity lecture) stated: "While some tend to think that yakiniku came from Korea, it was born in post war Japan."[11] Yet there are those who say that while yakiniku may have its beginnings in Japan, they believe it was first made by Korean Zainichi and should therefore be considered Korean cuisine.[12]

In all the world there are only two really great cuisines: the Chinese and the
French. China’s was created first, untold centuries ago, and is judged to be
the greater—when executed by superb chefs. It is the most complicated cuisine;
it uses ingredients no other employs; and it is distinctive in that, for the most
part, it is cuisine à la minute.

That kind of opinion is total bullshit for a number of reasons. It ignores the nature of shifting geographic, cultural, and class boundaries, which has forced to the exclusion and appropriation of cuisine. French culture is great for circular reasons; French were among the first to declare a culinary art rather than just to accept cuisine as what it is: preparing sustenance. Therefore French cuisine sets the bar, and whatever doesn't fit into that tight, subjective definition of not simply delicious but also artistic and culturally unique cannot be called a nation's fine cuisine.

Nevermind that France and China are both formed from the amalgamation of smaller states and cultures, they're "old" and therefore they can declare their cuisines as culturally unique and exquisitely varied.

[Anonymous No.4835175]

>>4835168
This completely excludes the cuisine of newer nations such as America, where ethnic influence can be attributed to existing states in the remainder of the world since its establishment, and thus "putting a twist" on an older dish serves no value in creating a new dish; it is just an "Americanized form of X." So deep-dish pizza is just a bastardization of Italian cuisine, mufalettas and poboys (note the s, there is not just one poboy) are bastardizations of English sandwiches, the entire spectrum of Southwestern cuisine is a bastardized pull from Mexico even if you couldn't find any of that shit south of the border. And America, being a culturally liberal state, accepts its position as a "melting pot" and therefore refuses to accept its own cuisine as distinct to itself no matter how fucking fine it may be, American high chefs forever being forced to adopt titles of European and Asian cuisine no matter how much independent research they put into creating their own new works.

[Anonymous No.4835180]

>>4835175
Meanwhile you have culturally conservative countries like Japan who the world doesn't bite the ass of, who constantly ignore their own ethnic heterogeneity and annex culturally anything they've been allowed to annex geographically. This allows them to append the title of Washoku, traditional cuisine, to anything formally referred to as Okinawan cuisine, despite the fact that they had their own kingdom into the 19th century and didn't become part of the Japanese empire until after fucking Woodstock (and 30 years of American control). This means that, the culinary gods be fucked, taco rice (yes, ground beef taco innards on rice instead of a tortilla, with salsa) is officially a Japanese dish. Look it up.

But no, bleu cheese avocado burgers are not American cuisine, and being fucking delicious does not qualify them as fine cuisine; they are bastardizations of German food with bastard condiments of France and Latin America smashed together. Eat a dick America.

[Anonymous No.4835182]

If you're gonna justify, justify in term of complexity and reaching influence instead of 1 or 2 overhyped dishes reduced to being icons of an entire culture.

Vietfag here and personally our cuisine is alright, top 5 maybe. Pho is honestly meh. In term of flavor, it's the weakest of its class. The rest of our cuisines share a lot of similarity with our neighbors - Thai, Cambodia, Philippine and whatnot so its hard to stand one out from the others.

Corean BBQ is nice, but then that's it. Everything else about it summed down to pickle everything and fucking peppers. Japanese is plagued by that miso shit and goddamn sushi. Both are top 6 at best. India shares the same issue with Americanized Chinese, except it's the Britbong instead.

Chinese is without a doubt first of Asian. Americanized Chinese is debatable a blight but just put it this way, a cuisine so far reaching that it bored a subculture of itself cannot be anything less than first whether you like it not. It is also the most diverse due to its history as well as its richer demography.

And this "Chinese food" is greater than that puny bitch Korean food or Vietnamese food.

This way we can say that Chinese food is the best in the world. Because after all, look at how many amazing dishes belong to Sichuan, Beijing, Shanghai, Shandong, Guangzhou, Tibet, Inner Mongolia, Ningbo, Taipei, Tainan, Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, and California's Chinatown. It must be the greatest cuisine in the world, to have that many good dishes.

But pho is not the defining dish of Vietnamese culture. To me, Vietnam is defined by flavor-mashing, such as in amazing fucking banh mi sandwiches, and a number of various chicken, beef, pork, and miso sautees. Not to mention spring rolls, and some Chinese-influenced food. If pho is all you think of when you think of Vietnam, you've never actually eaten real vietnamese food.

Singaporean cuisine isn't even from Singapore. I mean, some aspects are, but it's like a fusion of everything from the region, with a big influence from India.

They're great cuisines but I think China has a lot more cooking techniques and different kinds of ingredients not available in the year-round hot countries. Plus China has muslim food out west as well, there's a great restaurant in my city that does cumin lamb noodles and it's an amazing dish that doesn't taste like anything you'd think Chinese food would be like.

I kinda worded it incorrectly with the Muslim part. Obviously Malaysia/Singapore have a big muslim influence too.

See now this is where you're wrong. the kind of Chinese food you're talking about may taste good as soul food, since taste is objective anyway, it's considered poor people or snack food. The kind of food that you see in Chinese restaurants is what a middle to upper class Chinese family would eat. Although I agree that most of the time perfectly good ingredients get left out since western people don't like them, thus creating what you would call "Americanized Chinese".

That's another thing. Milk vinegar. I've never even encountered or heard of this anywhere else, but they ferment milk into wine and sometimes, when the milk wine sours, they make it into vinegar. It's awful. Just atrocious.
Boiled goat with no spices. Roast horse with no spices. Boiled vegetables with no spices. It's the worst.

Where in Manila? Did you live in the areas near the slums? All of the food there suck by the way since it's made with the cheapest ingredients for the bottom of the barrel people.

Try living in the northern provinces, Cebu and other Visayan provinces and down south in Mindanao.

There's too much to offer but of course you'd need to take detours. Not one place can make it properly without being authentic. It's like comparing NY style pizza made in Oregon or Wisconsin.

Being another Flip/Jap that toured quite a lot of countries in SEA, you should switch Chinese and Korean unless the only Chinese food you had are the bastardised versions of our fastfood/family restaurants here in the Philippines.

I'm the anon that wrote that, and that isn't what I said OR meant. What I was saying is that I knew so little about Korea, that I didn't know where it was. But Korean food is still at the top of my list. The post I was responded to was saying that the only people who really love Korean food, are either Koreans, or Koreaboos. I think if I was a Koreaboo, I would know where Korea is.

Nigga, that shit would be indelible if you did not fry it,and cover it in gravy. Of course you are a know nothing shitdick just spouting off at the mouth. 4/10 for the reply. You see, these "Chinese" resturants are fucking filthy, and take shortcuts left and right. Ever see a refrigerated truck deliver food to one of these places? Nope. They buy that food thats been 3 or 4 times frozen. To cut some corners. Hence drowning that shit in goo.

Im half korean and literally grew up on authentic korean food. It's true that alot of our food is fermented/picked....but it's still damn good. Peking duck is very tastey but my Family can't stand it. Pho is good, but only with tendon and a nice bunch of thai basil, I cant stand hosin sauce though.

It's just like this:

Doesn't like kimchi? Korean goes middle.
Only like bbq? Korean goes low.

As much as I like their food, I don't think it deserves a higher spot than Thai and Chinese.

that is a great photo.

cantonese cooking is the strongest. I'm going to hong kong to visit fam next year and i am probably just going to eat shellfish till i puke

i think actual chinese food is still too much for some people who haven't been exposed to it. My girlfriend went out for yum cha with some friends and it was pretty much only dumpling dishes that were 'safe' and familiar, everything else in their minds was some crazy weird shit.

when my gf ordered a plate of greens w/oyster sauce they were both just like "what is this? have you had it before? how do you make it?"

so whenever i see people shit on chinese food on this forum, i used to get kind of mad. now i just assume they're the kinda people that dunno what kai lan is.

yea I don't get this shit, why are westerners so adverse to real Chinese food even when they consider other Asian cuisine "safe"? most of the essential ingredients in Chinese cuisine are soy (albeit often dark soy), five spice, oyster sauce, plum sauce, chili, honey or maltose, and cooking wine, none of which should be seen as an alien ingredient

most Americans don't even know sweet and sour fish exists. OH MAN THAT MUST BE SOME CRAY CRAY RICE NIGGER SHIT no you fuck it's made with the same shit you can find in any godamn Wal-Mart and no worse than the sweet and sour diarrhea sauce you buy at every fucking wing shop and mcdonald's anyway

[Anonymous No.4843827]

I live in Malaysia, and I've traveled all around south-east asia.
Yeah, Malaysia has great cuisine but a lot of it is in due part to the cultural melting pot. Same with singapore, it's bona fide fusion cuisine at most points. Still won't turn down a great rendang at any nasi kandar stall.

For me, nothing beats Thai Cuisine. As much as I love the depth and variation found in Chinese cuisine, holy fuck, thai food done well is god tier.
