Another vote for Turkey. I was stationed there years ago and loved the food.

Any country bordering Mont Blanc, India.
You can sample the finest cuisine from around the world in Las Vegas if you are travel averse and enjoy a good freak show.

Texas. For the BBQ & Chicken Fried Steak.  I know Texas ain't a country, but it gets my vote too. No reason to leave the good ol' US of A for some fine dining. Amen !!! Mary’s Cafe in Strawn TX 15 miles N of I-20 between Abilene & Ft Worth. Biggest and Best Chicken Fried Steak I’ve had anywhere. And cream gravy and French Fries to die for.

No where. I might just put a beefsteak on the BBQ.
How can you beat that? Our own Longhorn beef that is.

Another show I used to watch was Bald and Bankrupt on Youtube.
He made Belarus sound like a good, cheap place to eat.
I am MAGA.

Zona G (for Gourmet) in Bogota, Athens,Greece, Israel, a little Uzbek restaurant in Seoul, the Netherlands, Norway, and believe its or not a Georgian place in Moscow . Bogota in first place for the great food, wonderful people, and Club Colombia Gold beer. I would go back to any of these for the food.
Regards,
Kris

Malaysia for me. Can get pretty much any kind of Asian food you want. Fried rice, satay, fried plantains, roti canai, naan. Wash it all down with a “100 Plus” soda or a Milo Pang!!! Oh man, brings back some memories. I saw Singapore mentioned. When I was in Malaysia we would travel to Singapore occasionally. Never tried the good stuff because they had Taco Bell and that was the ultimate comfort food for an American living in Asia  That was in the good old days when they still had the chili cheese burrito!!! Sri Lanka is also on my list for clay pot curry with rice!

I’ve enjoyed great food all over the world but I think Italy was one of the better places. I had surprisingly excellent pizza in Innsbruck Austria, very good Chinese food in Munich Germany and extremely rude service in Paris France. 😂
I would recommend fasting when you’re in England…..you ain’t missing much. Actually, getting a good buzz on in an old English pub and some late night kebabs and fish and chips along with some mushy peas and chips with curry sauce makes for one hell of a morning BM. If you’re craving a salad like I was you’re likely to be leaving disappointed. They looked at me funny and made a comment about rabbit food but the real kicker was when I asked for salad dressing….. I was offered “salad cream” (I think it was simply a miracle whip type mayonnaise and it was gross). I just used malt vinegar like I used for my fish and chips.
Just stay the hell away from “steak” and kidney pie. The rank smell of organs cooking permeates the entire shop and it even makes its presence known from the sidewalk outside.
The fun is in the exploration and without the occasional disappointment we’d not be as happy when we get a great meal abroad.
I’d like to go to Vietnam and Thailand for some gastronomic exploration but I fear that my gastronomic experience would morph into a gastrointestinal ordeal. 😬

I have been to dozens of countries.
Poland is the best IMO.

Biggest burger I’ve ever seen. Damn good onion rings too. Watch friends eat those burgers. I always get the “medium” chicken fried steak. 🤠 I’ll give the place in Hico a try.
