Seattle: Ivars fish and chips, decent Mexican food at just about
every place, including these weird little trucks that serve authentic
tacos. Note that I didn't say "the best" Mexican food, that is up for
debate--its just impossible to find really crappy Mexican food there
outside of Taco Bell. (My vote for the best outside of Mexico would be
San Diego.) Olympia oysters. Really good Red Delicious apples and
Really good Rainier cherries.
Deetroit: hot cinnamon donuts with fresh apple cider. Real good
poonchkis from Hamtramck.
Chicago: "Combo" sandwich--Sliced beef with juice and a grilled
Italian sausage with sweet peppers. Real Chicago style hot dogs with
florescent green relish and sport peppers.
Indiana: Sweet corn that brings tears to your eyes, and, briefly in
August one of the best canteloupe type melons in the country
Flahda: Pink Key West shrimp caught that morning--shrimp is usually
pretty good wherever you get it, but these are some of the best.
Weird, ugly and very sweet juice oranges at roadside stands.
Wisconsin: Curds that alway squeak when you eat them.
Buffalo, NY
Wings (yes, you can get them elsewhere, but they're not quite the
same)
Beef on Weck - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kummelweck
The Italian and Polish food is much better here than where I've lived
before in WV or NC, but I'm not sure that it's better here than other
northern cities with strong ethnic regions.
