Everyone in Seattle raves about Ethiopian food :childplease: maybe the most overrated food on earth. I've had much better home made Kenyan and other African foods even from it's region of the world.

Underrated: LEBANESE

Easily the best of all middle eastern food, only Israeli or some Persian compares...but Lebanese got it on lock fr...detroit is fukkin SPOILED with it's quality middle eastern food....a chicken shawarma with some taboulli :banderas:

Hot takes:
Overrated - Greek (its just underseasoned middle eastern food) german, tex-mex
Underrated - Thai, Mexican street food

Underrated: Peruvian. The best food in South America hands down.
Overrated: Korean. I’ve tried on more than one occasion to enjoy it. Terrible. Outside of Korean BBQ, it’s not good imo

I can’t fukk with Korean bbq

I came into this bytch to eat, not pay you hand me all the dam ingredients and cook it myself at the table.

Are people really comfortable eating with your hand like they do in some places in the Middle East?

Sure, it’s a cultural thing but I don’t know about all that.
