NYC style pizza S**Ts on Chicago style pizza!

And in England, at least at the shop I went to in Russel Square, London, you can get tomato slices on the pizza. Yumness!
 
My dad eats Cheese and Jelly sandwiches. Apparently, from what my grandmother says, its a new york thing.

I like malt vinegar on my french fries. I discovered that in Ireland.

In Ireland, when you order a "Chicken Salad Sandwich" it doesn't mean mashed up chicken with mayo and relish like it would here... its slices of deli chicken, with cole slaw (or some other type of "salad") on top of the chicken slices... DELICIOUS!

Boston [MA] baked beans & brown bread, Boston cream pie & Parker House rolls

I grew up on Boston Brown Bread.. it comes in a can (it's a steamed molasses semi-sweet bread) you open both ends.. and either warm or room temp, spread it with cream cheese.. it's really good~! I can't find it below the mason dixon line:(

Grandma Brown's baked beans.. now those are very good.. not your dark molasses baked beans.. but a very light brown.. and served with bacon on top.. again can't find them around here.


Brooklyn [NY] corned beef on rye, Coney Island hot dogs & egg creams
Egg Creams.. yeah sounds weird but they are sooo good..
recipe:
THE ORIGINAL BROOKLYN CREAM

YIELD: 2 servings

* 2 cups milk
* 1/2 cup seltzer (from a pressurized bottle)
* 1/4 cup chocolate syrup, such as Fox's U-Bet Syrup

Pour 1 cup of milk into a 12-ounce glass. Top with a spritz of seltzer so that the white foam reaches the top of the glass. Place a spoon in the glass. Pour 2 tablespoons of the chocolate syrup into the glass, hitting the bottom of the spoon if possible, and stir with quick strokes to blend the syrup into the milk without deflating the foam. Repeat to make another egg cream. Serve immediately.

Everyone who's been to the Jersey Shore has better say the fudge! I believe it's a Cape May that the most popular fudge shop is? Mom and I visited once and it was divine!
 
One of the local historical landmarks here in Roanoke is the Hotel Roanoke (been around since the railroad was king) and they serve something called Peanut soup. It's actually made with peanut butter, I believe, vice peanuts, but I've been told it is very good.

Anyone else here ever eaten squirrel brains and scrambled eggs with black eyed peas on new years day?
