  1. Local cusine offered in german restaurants is always only some variants of schnitzel a meats. Because it is easy to prepare in advance I think and people are too stingy to pay for the labour.

    All these delicious south german foods my family members cooked… you dont find it in restaurants.
    It is so annoying. You either cook it yourself or dont get to eat it.

  2. Pierre, I assume? It will always be PFIGS (silent F) <3

  3. I wonder how it’s measured. Are things like Burger places and Pizzerias include? Lunch and hotel restaurants?

  4. Our food rivalry may be epic, and we might also be a bit tsundere about each other, but we are essentially both pillars of European culture and identity that share centuries of history.

    Again, I’ll never admit it publicly, but I like you as a neighbor Pierre.

    (Since flairs are confusing today, it’s Luigi)

  5. 100 % IKEA is more popular than any Italian restaurant in Italy.

  6. i could bet money on the fact that if döner were considered german Germany would be red

  7. I guess the number of local restaurants in PIGS countries is dictated due to targeting tourists as customers, while the restaurants in northern countries focus on variety of different offers for locals.

  8. Swedish immigrant pizza is on par with Italian pizza. Not better, just different, it it’s own entire thing. Shit now I’m talking like a Yank.

    We put salad and kebab on pizza, among other things.

  9. Why tf should I go to a restaurant and pay for traditional German food? For this I just go to my grandma

  10. No. For PIGS, local cuisine is more common, because only tourists can afford it.

    The French are just narcissists

  11. Why do they get to keep their Chinese flair, but I can’t be a Yank anymore?

  12. /uj For food it’s always been (F)PIGS. PIGS are unified for other reasons so it’s a useful byword but you’ve always been obviously in the top the food tier. Founders of Michelin, haute cuisine, and codified gastronomie… whose pretentious garçons/grands prêtres bully the patrons for using the wrong fork of seven… in the Anglosphere French cuisine is the *most* prestigious by far and I assumed all Pierres knew this.

    /rj Fuck off savage, we don’t want your chow mein and dog meat

  13. If I see how many people are in cafetaria’s each evening compared to restaurants, I call BS on this map.

  14. I mean I guess if you define Couscous as French cuisine then I understand why we’re labelled as local cuisine lmao
