  Exotic? I'm addicted to Thai and Moroccan food, so those could qualify as my favorites. But recently I've been exploring the foods of many other cultures, so it's getting harder to pick one….

  Maybe it will be Macau!

  I don't think it's qualified as exotic, but I love Greek food.

• beetlebug  on  October 31, 2016

  I take umbrage at the term exotic. It's a very euro centric/western view of food. I've eaten at Fat Rice in Chicago and loved it. But, it isn't exotic since it's similar to food that I ate growing up on the East Coast of the US. The "exotic" food that I love is pasta with meatballs.

  If by exotic you mean different from the majority of cuisines served in my home country, I guess I would say I have never had food like I had when I was in Indonesia. Delicious.

• vickster  on  October 31, 2016

  Southeast Asian. Would love to try these recipes!

• jenmacgregor18  on  October 31, 2016

  Southeast Asian for me.

• Asparagusberry  on  October 31, 2016

  I am loving experimenting with regional Indian cuisine. I'm especially interested in exploring Kerala cuisine, and recently purchased a hard to find ingredient. Cant wait to use cambodge aka kodampuli!

• sarahawker  on  October 31, 2016

  I'd love to try more Indian techniques.

• Jenny  on  October 31, 2016

  By exotic I mean different than usual everyday fare. I lived in NYC for 15 years – I cook every imaginable type of cuisine – not everyone does.

• Siegal  on  October 31, 2016

  I like isRaeli food

• lgroom  on  October 31, 2016

  I love Indian food.

• gjelizabeth  on  October 31, 2016

  Chinese food and the food of all the Chinese-influenced cultures of Asia.

• JulieG1002  on  October 31, 2016

  So hard to select A favorite, I love so many … Middle Eastern, Chinese, Southeast Asian, Mediterranean …

• jlg84  on  October 31, 2016

  It's hard to select a favorite, but I'd have to go with Sichuan.

• IsaSim  on  October 31, 2016

  Love Indian food!

• sgump  on  October 31, 2016

  So my favourite is Japanese–but this book makes me remember a trip to Macau in 1998 (before the reversion to Chinese rule). The food there rivaled what I'd eaten earlier in Hong Kong. Yes, really! Plus, it was even less expensive. (But that was 18 years ago, of course, before most of the substantial development.)

• lhudson  on  November 1, 2016

  Mexican!! Its what I cook the most, but may not really be considered international anymore.

• bfg67  on  November 1, 2016

  korean

• MmeFleiss  on  November 1, 2016

  I love Vietnamese food.

• annmartina  on  November 1, 2016

  Southeast Asian. My food memories from Singapore remain some of my all-time favorites. A couple of weeks ago I made some pandan flavored Vietnamese yogurt. Divine.

• sir_ken_g  on  November 1, 2016

  I like them all. Half of my 300+ cookbooks are "exotic"
  But SE Asian. Vietnamese, Thai, Burmese, Laotian, Hmong.

  Spanish!

• Rinshin  on  November 2, 2016

  Japanese but not those commonly found in Japanese restaurants outside of Japan which are typically boring, not tasty and badly presented. I like regional Japanese foods found in different prefectures, towns, and cities.

• Julia  on  November 2, 2016

  Moroccan and Persian

• ydixon57  on  November 3, 2016

  Greek food

• annieski  on  November 3, 2016

  During each Olympics, we try to eat from the cuisine of a different country. This past year we managed about eleven new dishes. Great fun. Our favorites at present are Korean and Tunisian.

• traculart  on  November 3, 2016

  My favorite International Cuisine is the one I'm eating at the moment I'm asked! LOL. Too many varied tastes to pick just one!

• kitchenfrolic  on  November 3, 2016

  My favourite international cuisine is definitely Japanese!

• Therese  on  November 4, 2016

  I think it's Japanese, but don't quote me, that could change tomorrow!

• Lafauvette  on  November 5, 2016

  So hard to choose! Probably Middle Eastern though.

• PennyG  on  November 5, 2016

  I recently spent 3 months in India and love recreating the food I ate there at home!

• percussion03  on  November 5, 2016

  I grew up in an area where middle eastern food was common, so now that I have moved away, it is a constant quest to find or make something authentic!

• infotrop  on  November 6, 2016

  Northern Spain

• angelanorr  on  November 8, 2016

  Burmese

• Teruska  on  November 8, 2016

  Italian. No, Japanese. No, Tunisian. No, Greek. Middle Eastern food. Mediterranean food. During the Olympics, we eat from a different country each night. This year, Spicy Squid from Korea won our gold medal.

  Thai!

• jillsharaf  on  November 30, 2016

  I love food. I eat sushi out. In my home cooking I use Asian influences. I love sweet, salty and spicy. I think fish sauce can round out flavors. Salads are often made better with cilantro, mint and basil.

• lsgourmet  on  December 1, 2016

  I have no favorite cuisine. Some weeks I'll be into Middle Eastern then find myself fascinated by an ingredient that makes me try it in Indian food. I drift, I love it and I never get bored.

• elysek  on  December 1, 2016

  I adore almost all cuisines including Indian, Middle Eastern, and Asian.

• AGENT99  on  December 2, 2016

  My favourite is Indian
