is there a region with a better concentration of top cuisines and relatively few duds? everything in the orient is solid except laos and cambodia, and asia has several contenders in most peoples' top 5 and 10.

mideast / med might be the only other option. egyptian may be the only dud in there on both sides of the med and thru the arabian peninsula.

No, lots (maybe most) of their stuff is genuinely disgusting, but they have so many dishes you can find a few good ones to Americanize and offer at restaurants.

The med and middle east have consistently good food without cherry picking

i think the standard should be dishes that you'd get at a decent restaurant in the nation's capital, not the bottom of the barrel garbage that starving third world natives in the boonies are eating.

i don't think you can rip on american food based on prole slop like green bean caseroles any more than chink food based on the garbage they're eating in some bumfuck chink village.

though, med / ME has the advantage that you could go to any random bumfuck prole's home and still have 180 food.
