I don't think I have a best romantic dinner because I find it corny. No offense, it's just my own personal perspective. Anyway, I had one dinner with my boyfriend that I think was pretty much romantic. He took me to a $$-up Vietnamese restaurant by surprise because I forgot it was my birthday; therefore, I just thought we went to some cheap restaurant. Then he sang a happy-birthday-song to me while giving me the present. I think it might be nothing to others, but to me it was pretty romantic since it was cute to me. Well, it was also romantic because he didn't write me any damn poem or give me a bouquet. They're a waste of money to me.

Oh sweet!! :) It’s definitely romantic to me too.

The country foods that I have tasted at least once :

Switzerland
France
Italian (very good le paste, una pizza cuatro stagioni por favor !)
Spain (la paella y una cerveza, per favore ! los frutos del mar son muy ricos !)
Portugal (only la cerveja ! beer, and some porto )
India (very good !)
Thaïland (very good, too !)
China (good, but I don't like all)
Quebec ! (le sirop d'érable)
Germany
Poland (but I don't remember, I was there when I was a child)
Greece
Turquie

I've tried German, Austrian, Swiss, Czech, American, Dutch, Norwegian, Danish, British, Irish and Bulgarian.

Shokin,

How much are different between Swiss and Italian food? I’ve in Geneva for a day and had lunch at one of the restaurants near the lake. I remember that I had a sandwich and a escargots grilled dish. They were great. The escargots were delicious. Does Swiss people use a lot of tomato based sauce and olive oil in their cooking? I love Italian seafood pasta. It’s so delicious. Thanks.

Yes, I like grillet escargots ! but not all swiss do like it (it is an animal, on some people don't like the appearance, the look).

Yes, much tomatoes ! (in alu box even) and olive oil, I use it regularly en las pastas. [But for meat I prefer use tournesol or colza oil.] In Switzerland (and in many countries, I believe) many people like pastas ! we like this italian cooking (con bolognese salsa, carbonara, and others variants that you can create).

I like muy seafood ! especially en la paella from Spain (por ejemplo, paella valenciana)

In Switzerland we like much :

On the next link, the fondue is at the bottom, under "Formaggi" on the left. [But I let you enjoy the very many others meals. The title of this page means in italian : "Joys (pleasures) of the swiss table."

The fondue

How to cook swiss fondue

Some variants of the fondue :

you often add white wine in the fondue

you can add curry, pepper, persil, etc. according to your taste.

you can prepare a "fondue with tomatoes" : instead of cheese,

you put tomatoes (from tomatoes in box) and add what you want.

There are many others swiss meats.

If you want to know about italian food, I hope that Frengo will talk about.
