I like Japanese food too. Mostly whatever matcha stuff they have though xD. I love their matcha ice creams.

You ever had winter melon tea? Best shit ever when it's hot as holy hell in Taiwan.

Man, but I used to mistake winter melon for daikon in soups, and would get really upset because I'm not a fan of winter melon in anything other than tea form.

As for my favorite cuisines, hm. Cajun stuff is great, but I have a pretty low spiciness tolerance, unfortunately. German food's nice. Occasionally a bit too hearty/heavy for me, but I could probably make a dinner out of just kielbasa and sauerkraut. Or ham shank.

Traditional Hakka dishes are among my favorites, as are Taiwanese dishes. (My mom makes the best Taiwanese food and that's a /fact/, dammit.) I've had almost everything listed under "Regional Specialties" and "Typical Dishes" on the wiki page, and my dad's parents live just down the street from the main/founding store of Dashi/Daxi's famous dried tofu.
