What's good at the drive-thru?
So let's say you have to drive across parts of Ohio, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana. Due to a curse, you can only get your lunch and dinner at places with drive-thru windows, so either fast food or hybrid "fast casual" like Panera and Fazioli's. What are the best orders you'd make at which restaurants? [more inside]
What is the best food in in the WORLD in Brooklyn?
I'm not saying what's something that #27 on a world pizza list. Or really good coffee. I mean what's a food in a specific niche, that's generally, if not universally acknowledged to be the best there is on the planet AND it's in the borough of Brooklyn? Restaurant OR grocery OR food manufacturer.
Where in Stockholm should I eat Kalix löjrom?
While in Stockholm I'd like to try Kalix löjrom (vendace roe from Bothnian Bay), since it seems like the ideal time of year for it. I'd prefer this to be at a restaurant. I could buy a small jar or tin, but wouldn't have the means to prepare it properly at a hotel and it sounds like it needs to be kept frozen if I want to bring it back home (not going to be possible). So far all I've heard is that it's served at 'nicer restaurants'. Does anyone have specific recommendations?
Great restaurant in NYC (Manhattan) with outdoor tables?
Hello. For a wedding anniversary, I'm looking for a really good restaurant that has outdoor tables. Preferable: Downtown, East Side. [more inside]
Why are some cuisines more popular than others?
I'm researching different cities, mostly in Europe and North America, and when looking at international restaurants (relative to the country I'm looking at), I find the same cuisines show up all the time, no matter the city. Chinese, Italian, Japanese, Vietnamese, even frequently Brazilian, seem ubiquitous. A lot more inside (including more about food representation in cities than you thought you wanted to know).

Restaurants in East or West Village, NYC, with HEAT LAMPS?

Hello there! I am going to be visiting London for a week at the end of October, and staying in Hackney Central, while walking to Dalston daily. I'll be posting more questions over the next couple of weeks about other stuff to do while I'm there—but with this question, I would like to focus on recommendations for local eateries and food shopping. See inside for special snowflake stuff. Thanks! [more inside]

Best route to take in Iceland?
I'm traveling to Iceland in August. I have 10 days and definitely want to see as much as possible. There is so much info out there about best routes to take but it seems like Ring Road, Highlands and Golden Circle are the most mentioned.
Any recommendations on where to eat/drink (in and outside Reykjavik)? Was considering forgoing Ring Road to spend a few extra days in Reykjavik (to explore, meet people and experience the culture). Is 2-3 days enough in the capital? [more inside]

Full English breakfast on a weekday in New York?
Weekends in New York a full English isn't too hard to find, but are there any places that will do a fry up on a weekday -- specifically Friday? By full English I mean full English, with black pudding and sausage as a breakwater. Bonus points for a full Scottish with haggis.

Kid Friendly Mid/Upscale Dining in NYC
Myself, my wife and our nine year old son will be visiting NYC in August for a few days. It will be our wedding anniversary while we're out there, and we're hoping to find a mid/upscale restaurant to enjoy. My wife and I usually would splurge on a multi-course meal someplace really nice, and while our son is pretty adventurous when it comes to food (most recently he enjoyed stealing some sweetbreads off my plate), you know, he's still a kid.

Miami -> Chicago Road Trip Food Recommendations?
About to drive Miami -> Atlanta -> Nashville -> Chicago, please save me from boring road trip food! I eat everything and am looking for recommendations ranging from unique local holes-in-the-wall to decent chains that are regional to the areas I'm passing through (if I was asking about the West coast, I'm thinking things like In-n-Out or Burgerville).

Where to eat in SW/SE Portland
I go to Portland a lot but will be visiting a neighborhood I'm less familiar with. Mostly in Sellwood-Moreland, staying in Burlingame. Visiting alone so want to keep it simple, like homey breakfast places or inexpensive sit-down international eats. Where should I go? EIther hole-in-the-wall or hipsterish is fine.
What are your great kid friendly restaurant experiences?
Please tell me about that time you went to a restaurant - as a kid or with your own kids - and the place was kid friendly in some great way.
Eating in Europe - celiac filter
I'm going to be traveling through a few Western European cities this summer, need to eat while doing so, and have celiac disease. I'm quite sensitive and a little cross-contamination will ensure that all I see of Amsterdam is a hotel toilet. I'd like to eat at restaurants and also eat pre-purchased food (cheese, crackers, fruit, salami, etc.) in parks and on trains between cities.
I'm looking for your celiac-safe restaurant and grocery recommendations. [more inside]
Toronto restaurant recommendations?
Hi Toronto people, I'm going to be in your town this weekend, staying a few blocks from the Rogers Centre. Any wonderful food experiences in that neighborhood you recommend? I doubt I'll have time to go anywhere that isn't reachable on foot so just that area only please. Any cuisine, any degree of fanciness/not fancy.
Good restaurant for an out-of-towner near Union Square in SF?
My friend- a lawyer from DC- is coming into SF for a work trip and we're trying to get together for dinner and a drink at around 8 on Monday evening. I'd like to take her somewhere special that shows off SF dining a bit but that is not too pricey, and after a long day she wants it to be walking distance from her hotel in Union Square. Many of the restaurants recommended in previous Asks are really expensive (Fleur De Lys, Masa's) or closed (Ponzu, Lulu). Any local favorites that you would recommend? Thank you!

What's cool in Santa Ana/Irvine/Costa Mesa, CA?
I'm going to be in the Santa Ana/Irvine/Costa Mesa area for a business trip next week--flying in to SNA and staying nearby. I may have a half day or so to wander around and do my own thing, but not long enough to get to LA, San Diego, or even really Anaheim. What's worth seeing and doing in the immediate area? [more inside]
Help stop our going-out addiction!
My husband and I both love to go out for dinner, but we’re spending WAY TOO MUCH MONEY on food. We’ve tried to be better at eating at home, but it seems like it’s either strict austerity or wild spending abandon and no in between. [more inside]
Restaurant recommendation site for France?
What do the locals in France use to find good restaurants? Essentially, the equivalent of stuff like yelp, Zagat and so on. I'll be traveling there next week, and would appreciate something that could point me to good places to eat near wherever I happen to be. [more inside]
Waiter, there's a fly in my soup!
The other night, I went to a restaurant and ordered a dish that was served inedibly salty. Well, when I say "inedibly," I speak figuratively, because we ate it. We didn't enjoy it, but we ate it. Which raised the question: when is it acceptable to send something back as a restaurant and ask for a replacement not because it's actually defective, but because it's just plain bad? [more inside]

Restaurant recommendation in Paris
Difficulty: teenager.
I'm visiting my family in France for the first time in a while, and we're going to Paris. Does anyone have recommendations for not-terribly-expensive restaurants a 13 year-old girl will be okay with? When I'm in Paris I rarely visit the same places twice other than L'As du Fallafel in le Marais, which obviously I'll recommend to them. We'll be close to Le Centre Pompidou.
Take-out dinner in downtown Seattle?
