Show Notes
Savouring exotic flavours and iconic dishes is one of travel’s great rewards. But some of the most popular dishes do not originate from where you would think. Let’s start with a Caesar Salad.
What about a Japanese Curry?
Take a cruise in Alaska and Baked Alaska is sure to feature on the dessert menu. Is it Alaskan?
How about Chicken Tikka Masala?
One of the most deceptively named dishes would have to be Mongolian Beef.
One of the most popular dishes in Peru is Lomo Saltado. Strips of beef with onion and tomato. But is it Peruvian?
Speaking of Peru - Pisco Sour. Is the national drink actually Peruvian?
