  ITT: Local delicacies that you have to go to if someone visits your city.

If you ever come up here to Portland, you have to go to Vodoo Donuts.

Oh god someday I have to go here. Everyone raves about it.

For some reason, Nevada is the fastest growing state in the U.S. which means we have a little bit of every culture so you can pretty much find any sort of food here if you look hard enough. Lots of amazing Mexican food, the little Nugget's hamburgers are pretty well known for being amazing, college food hangouts known for having delicious cheap bar food, the tapas bar at the Peppermill, and Scoopers, which makes the best milkshakes anywhere.

Hands down I'd have to take someone out to Geno's Steaks, order them a cheese steak with some sauteed onions, fries, and a Birch Beer. If you're staying multiple days, we go to lunch Reading Terminal Market. There's some great eats there, and we'll finish it off with a few scoops of Ice Cream from the Bassett's Ice Cream. Then at night we go to Chickie and Pete's and get us the best damn crab fries EVER. Philly is an amazing city for eating.

Angelo's Coney Island. I don't even like hot dogs most of the time, and I would kick a baby in the head if it meant I could get a couple of coneys and some fries from Angelo's.

Vodoo is best, the bacon maple bar was pure mouth sex.

Some say that Krispy Kreme is the best thing about this town. My college constantly smells like donuts.

If you're ever in Melbourne...

El Nada Bakery in Spotswood makes pizza. Lebanese pizza. Any of them are good. Just pick whichever pizza you like the sound of best.

Cafe a Taglio in St Kilda sells pizza by the rectangular slice. Apparently it's all supposed to be pretty good, but I've never eaten anything but the leek and gorgonzola pizza, which is fucking fantastic.

Tuto Bene in Southbank makes the best risotto I've ever eaten. In fact, I didn't actually like risotto until I tried theirs. The only restaurant I've seen in Australia that actually bills itself as a risotteria.

So yeah, come to Melbourne and eat pizza.

I'll be a good San Diegan (god i miss san francisco) and say we have the best fucking fish tacos in the country.

varieties contain but are not limited to:
mahi or wahoo marinated in teriyaki sauce
fried calamari
oyster
lobster
ceviche
fried baja fish (pollock)

I don't know what the sauces that they use are, but they're fucking orgasmic.

Yeah, Voodoo is a staple of Portland, but I've been directing people to Bigass Sandwiches lately. It's a one of Portland's many food carts but this one of the most delicious.
http://www.bigasssandwiches.com/
They also always have a sandwich of the week which is always either based on a Portland notable or a pop culture reference.

portland fag here, been to both voodoo locations, doughnuts are actually pretty average other than the novelty of having strange doughnuts

Stan's in LA had some amazing doughnuts.

Eugene here, Voodoo's setting up shop here soon.

Also while you're in Oregon, buy Tillamook cheese and if you're in Eugene, we have the absolutely fabulous Euphoria Chocolates Company. Absolutely mouth-watering.

Down in Houston, everyone should go to Bubba's Burger Shack. It's got buffalo burgers and normal burgers. That's it. It doesn't need anything else.
>see pict

Or Feast. Feast has a babby google webpage if you look it up. It's fucking awesome- it cooks traditional shit with local meat; half the menu changes every day. It's in a converted house and it's gorgeous. Everyone's nice in there and helps you puzzle out this 'what the fuck is a "House Cured Charcuterie Plate with Manchego and Raisin Cheese"' shit.

You can get a damn Chicken Onion which is delicious as fuck and then you get something like pork belly stew and polish that shit off with some orange sorbet and then pressed coffee goddamn.

And this is before you start going to mexican places where everything is in spanish and the menu's on a whiteboard.

I live in Buffalo so...everyone wants chicken wings when they come here.

Also: Mighty Taco, our hidden treasure.

As in Upper Peninsula Michigan?

I had no idea there was any locale in the US where pasties featured on the menu. Got a lot of mines in the Upper Peninsula?

Yep. Every restaurant here has pasties. Every one. And yeah, it's an old copper mining area.

their hands were disgustingly filthy covered in all sorts of shit from being down in coal mines and whatnot, so the long flat crust gave them something to hold onto so they didnt get filth all over the delicious food within. some other rubbish about the discarded crusts being a good luck superstition too.
