MyCityCuisine, a Wiki Project dedicated to food! Tue, 03/15/11 7:40 AM (permalink)
Hello all !

My name is Daniel and I am contributor to a project called MyCityCuisine. org, a wiki dedicated to food. The project's goal is to help travelers discover local foods from all over the world.  Since food has always been an integral part of the local culture, tasting local food is high on most traveler's to do list. However, understanding what you are eating in a foreing country is not always easy. Until now, there was no single comprehensive source providing this particular information for cities around the world. Mycitycuisine. org aims to fill this void.
MyCityCuisine is currently looking for contributors and I wanted to see if anyone here might be interested in contributing to this project and making this resource available to all of us, as unique and diverse as possible.
To learn more about the project, please go to:
     org/

Anything you can do to help this project, will be greatly appreciated!


Kind regards,

Daniel

    Since you are in the United States, it might be helpful
    if it were a bit more accessible. Madison and New York
    don't make it for me, but at least your idea seems legitimate.

        Thats true, we are in dire need of more contributors and suggestions of US. Issue is its hard to pinpoint local food for most US cities, this is actually something I would highly appreciate some help with.
         
        If anyone would like to suggest some dishes for the same NYC, it would highly be appreciated.
         
         
        Thanks,
        Daniel

          Daniel: Welcome to Roadfood.
           
          Are you a student at Illinois State, but whose home is in Madison, WI?  I ask this because I wondered why you did such a complete section on Madison, and have nothing on Bloomington or Peoria or Springfield or even Chicago.  Just here in Illinois we have the Horseshoe and Cozy Dog (Springfield); Deep Dish Pizza, Chicken Vesuvio, Italian Beef and the Chicago Dog (Chicago); and the Gondola and Art's Tamales  (Bloomington & Peoria).
           
          A search through Roadfood's Restaurant section as well as the Recipe section will give you a wealth of information on local favorites in all parts of the country, and is certainly a good place to start.  I think you just might have a lifetime occupation on your hands.
