Thought I’d ask this because I want to discover more foods from across the world

(Also I shouldn’t have to say this to americans, please state where you are from and state where you are from without acronyms or shortened names because I’ve seen US Defaultism on lemmy and not all of us are going to know your acronyms considering we’re global users)

    I’m from Cleveland Ohio. Our local dishes are heavily influenced by Eastern Europe, plus Italy and Ireland. Pierogi are universally enjoyed all around north east ohio, but Cleveland is the center. And fat tuesday just went by, which for Cleveland is pączki day. Something that is always found at the baseball game that is unique to Cleveland is the Polish Boy. It’s kielbasa, either deep fried or grilled, on a bun with coleslaw and french fries on top. This town also loves corned beef, if you ever come here, Slyman’s is an institution and is a must visit. And something that I did not realize was local until recently is a romanburger. Essentially put a burger patty in an Italian sub. The exact recipe has variations, generally has to have mortadella and salami in addition to the burger, and a vinegarette sprinkled on instead of the usual burger sauce. We aren’t afraid of calories here.
