Clam chowder in a sourdough bread bowl. NY pizza, Detroit Pizza, Chicago Pizza and hot beef sandwiches. Biscuits and gravy, fried chicken, fried okra. Blackened seafood, crawfish boils, jambalaya, beignets. Where I’m at, smoked fish, wild rice, and pasties. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 6 child comments replies: [–] Wolf@lemmy.today 3 points 11 months ago I would add "Tex Mex" among the list of good American food, along with "Chinese Food". By Chinese food of course I mean the food Chinese Americans and immigrants serve in the U.S. From what I understand it's not really authentic Chinese food, but I'll be damned if it isn't tasty.
