Help with Alphabet Challenge, please.

[Richie1976]

A group of friend and me are doing what we call the Alphabet challenge. Each month we go out for a meal together and pick a cuisine beginning with whatever letter we're up to. For example for A we did Afghan, B Brazilian, C Czech, D Danish, F French. Now we're stuck on G, apart from Greek (a little obvious and we've try countless times) and German (which we think will be to close to Czech). Do any of you have any suggestion? Otherwise it's going to be sauerkraut all round. Thanks in advance.

Goan.

There are goan restaurants and a lot of the big chains do Goan inpsired meals.

Enjoy!

sorry, should have added that you'll have to do a summerish garden party for that one, and bring a different dish each!!!

What about Guatamalan cuisine or Greenland?

Grenada - beautiful caribbean cuisine washed down with rum punch!

How about Great Britain? or possibly Ghurka, which I believe to be a bit of Nepalese/Indian?

Great idea, and I would be quite happy to supply you with lots of German recipes not including sauerkraut...

If you'd be able to find it in an 'English' restaurant, I don't know, though.
Why don't you cook yourself?
That's what I do with some friends, not by the alphabet, though, just different countries.

Don't knock the German cuisine. I can't abide sauerkraut either, but that hasn't stopped me living half a lifetime sausage-side. The standard of catering is on balance much better here than in the UK, fewer chains, less fast food and more regional and seasonal fare. Whether you'll be able to find a good German restaurant near where you live is another question, but have you considered a cheap Ryan Air or Hapag Lloyd flight to Germany for your letter G?

Alternatively - and very alternatively because if it's authentic it will be strictly veggie - do you have a Gujerati restaurant in your vicinity? I can't say I've ever eaten in a Gujerati restaurant, but I went on a Gujerati cooking course many years ago in Frankfurt - we had some excellent stuff.

Or you could go Grampian and opt for a deep fried Mars bar.
