Poland
I ate a bunch of pierogi when I lived in Greenpoint, Brooklyn, but they were nowhere near as good as these. Will make again for sure. 03/08/22

Oaxaca, Mexico
The mole which covered the enchiladas was terrible (to me -- the other 2 liked it). Very strong clove flavor which I found super bitter. 10/26/21
Somalia
Somalia's food reflects the east African country's proximity to the Middle East and India. Lots of spices and chilies. This is a poor country (their top export is live animals, which I found terrifying and did not explore) where camels are eaten, but they also consume a lot of vegetables and rice and season their meals well. We loved the spiced Somali rice, perfumed with cinnamon, clove, cardamom, and cumin. Our vegetable was cabbage stewed with turmeric, cumin, ginger, chile pepper, and sesame seeds. 10/1/20
