世界美食大搜羅(雙語圖文)

Safety is the usual choice for global travelers when faced with a menu of unknown dishes. But a great meal transcends all cultural boundaries, and sharing the food of your host country is the best way to connect with its people and culture.

　　對於國際旅行者來說，當看到菜單上面都是自己不知道的菜餚時，他們往往會選擇自己認爲安全
的食物。但是美食是超越所有文化界限的，品嚐當地的食物是融入當地文化以及與當地人交流的最佳方式。

　Argentina 阿根廷

This South American nation is best known for beef and empanadas, but there’s so much more to explore. Believe it or not, the ice cream here is among the best in the world, and dulce de leche and malbec flavors are absolute must-haves. If you’re in the mood for cheese, don’t leave without sampling provoleta – a smoky provolone sprinkled with oregano. As for native Andean cuisine, locro, a hearty stew of corn, beans, squash and meat, is delicious.

這個南美洲國家的牛肉和肉餡捲餅很出名，不過還有更多美食等你嘗試。不管你相不相信，這裏的冰激淋在世界上數一數二，其中牛奶焦糖口味和馬爾白克口味冰激淋是一定要品嚐的。如果你喜歡奶酪，那你就不能錯過品嚐奶酪烤餅——一種撒了牛至葉粉的煙燻味波蘿伏洛乾酪。而安第斯山當地的菜餚燉肉湯——一種玉米、豆子、南瓜和肉一起燉的豐盛菜餚——非常美味。

　　Brazil 巴西

No culinary trip here is complete without a visit to the state of Bahia. First thing to order: Moqueca de peixe, a fish (and sometimes shrimp) stew made with tomatoes and coconut milk. For a satisfying weekend lunch – not unlike American brunch – feijoada, a heavy stew of beans, meat and sausage, served with rice, can be found all over Brazil. If you’re looking for something lighter, fresh grilled fish with tomato-and-onion salad coupled with a couple of Brahma beers is a perfect beach meal.

如果沒有去巴伊亞州，那麼你在巴西的美食之旅就不完整。第一道要點的菜是燉魚，就是將魚（有時還有蝦）和西紅柿以及椰子汁一起燉。像美國的早午餐一樣，豐盛的週末午餐巴西燉菜——豆子、肉和香腸一起燉，配上米飯——在整個巴西都能品嚐到。如果你想要品嚐一些較清淡的菜餚，鮮嫩的烤魚、西紅柿洋蔥色拉，再配上幾瓶博浪啤酒簡直是一頓完美的海灘餐。

　　 China 中國

In Beijing the restaurants in the alleyways of Qianmen are renowned for hot pot, or huo guo. Here you’ll find the streets are lined with boiling pots filled with soup ingredients. Its excellent selections range from Mongolian specialties – best known for lamb and mutton dishes – and spicy Szechuan. Some 600-plus miles away, Shanghai is best known for its street food, especially soup dumplings. But don’t stop there, sheng jian bao, steamed pork bun, makes for a perfect snack, while jian bing, egg-based crepes with a bean sauce or chili smear, is a local power breakfast.

北京前門衚衕裏的餐館以火鍋而聞名。在這裏，你會發現街道上到處都是裝滿湯底的沸騰鍋子。可供選擇的美味火鍋有內蒙古特色火鍋——最有名的是羔羊肉和羊肉火鍋，以及辛辣的四川火鍋。大概600 多英里以外的上海的美食以街邊小吃而聞名，特別是灌湯包。不過可不只有灌湯包，還有生煎包—— 一種蒸熟的豬肉包——是一種很棒的小吃，而煎餅——以雞蛋爲主料做成的薄烤餅，抹上豆瓣醬或辣椒醬—— 也是當地非常有名的早餐。

Word of advice: Avoid street food. Try to score an invite to a local dinner table rather than settle for street vendors. Many locals are vegetarian, but Indian cuisine includes a variety of delicious meat and seafood. Grilled minced lamb, seekh kebabs, are the staple of Tandoori cooking, while the nation’s coastal regions are renowned for masala (spiced) fish or prawns. Natives advise caution when eating seafood during the monsoon months of June to August due to the increase in water-borne diseases.

忠告：不要吃街邊食物。儘量獲得當地人的邀請到其家中品嚐美食，而不是隻滿足於在街邊攤販那裏品嚐。許多當地人都是素食主義者，不過印度菜餚中囊括了許多美味的肉和海鮮。烤羊肉卷——烤制而成的切碎的羔羊肉——是採用泥爐炭火烹飪法烹製而成的常見食物，而這個國家沿海地區的美食則以咖喱（辣味）魚或對蝦而出名。當地人建議在6 月到8 月這三個季風月份要謹慎品嚐海鮮，因爲水傳播疾病會增加。

While India conjures up images of curries, local specialties are worth digging around for. In North India, never say no to chaat or paani-puri. These delicious crispy crackers are dressed up with condiments of the sweet and spicy variety. If you’re in the south, don’t leave without trying fresh coconut. Traveling tappers climb coconut trees, tap the fruit’s blossom and decant the sap into a bottle. As the day progresses, the liquid becomes increasingly intoxicating, transforming from a light, fizzy drink mid-morning and fermenting into a seriously strong alcoholic drink by evening.

提到印度就會讓人想起咖喱，當地有許多特色美食值得你搜尋。在北印度，一定要吃“chaat” 或“paanipuri” 。這些美味鬆脆的點心可以加各種甜味和辣味調味品。如果你在印度南部，那麼就不能不品嚐一下新鮮的椰子。流動採集工人爬上椰子樹，輕輕地敲開椰殼，將椰子汁倒入一個瓶子裏。放上一天，椰子汁會變得越來越醇香，上午還是清淡、有氣泡的飲料，到了晚上就發酵成濃烈的酒精飲料。

　　 Italy 意大利

Pizza not exotic enough for you? The pizza in Naples has a “DOP” stamp of approval from the Italian government to authenticate it. The ingredients are simply dough and a rich marinara sauce with oregano. Locals say there’s something in the water density in Naples that guarantees you will never have a pizza like it anywhere else in the world.

If you’re lucky enough to be around during the autumn truffle season, try uova con tartufi – fried eggs with truffle oil. It can’t be found on restaurant menus, but chefs from Tuscany and Umbria will know exactly what you mean if you ask for it.

對你來說，比薩不夠“意大利”嗎？那不勒斯的比薩有意大利政府的原產地保護認證標誌以證明它的品質。它的原材料就只有生麪糰和加了牛至葉粉、味道濃郁的番茄大蒜調味汁。當地人說那不勒斯的水密度有點不一般，這能保證你所品嚐的比薩與世界上其他任何地方的比薩都不同。

如果你足夠幸運是在秋季松露季節前後來到意大利， 那麼一定要嚐嚐加了松露油的煎蛋“uova con tartufi”。雖然餐廳的菜譜上沒有這種煎蛋，但如果你點這個食物的話，來自托斯卡納區和翁布里亞的廚師們肯定知道你點的是什麼。

　　 Japan 日本

You can get great sushi almost everywhere, so when you’re in Japan it’s worth trying other delicacies. Okonomiyaki, a savory pancake (or Japanese pizza) from Hiroshima, is made with batter, vegetables, seaweed, meat, a sweet sauce resembling Worcestershire9, and Japanese mayonnaise. Other regional delicacies include anagomeshi, or sea eel rice, and tonkatsu ramen from Hakata, a pork-bone white soup with ramen noodles.

你幾乎在任何地方都能吃到很棒的壽司，所以到了日本不妨嚐嚐其他美食吧。御好燒是來自廣島的一種好吃的薄餅（也可稱爲“日本比薩”），它是由麪糊、蔬菜、海藻、肉、類似伍斯特沙司的甜醬和日本蛋黃醬做成的。其他日本地方美食料理還有鰻魚壽司（鰻魚飯），博多豚骨拉麪—— 在豬脊骨高湯中下入拉麪。

　　Lebanon 黎巴嫩

Many dishes, such as hummus, a delicious chickpea spread, are pervasive throughout the Middle East. But when you’re in Beirut, don’t leave without trying mezze, a selection of starters with dips like hummus and the smoky eggplant baba ganoush, fresh vegetables, olives and leavened bread that could be a meal in itself. Lebanese cuisine relies heavily on poultry and meat, especially lamb, grilled or served in a stew. Lebanon also has a growing wine industry, but only order if you’re handed a wine menu; traditional Islamic law generally prohibits drinking alcohol.

黎巴嫩的許多菜餚都風靡整個中東地區，比如鷹嘴豆泥——一種美味的鷹嘴豆醬。但如果你在貝魯特，就不能錯過品嚐“餐前小菜”——包括以鷹嘴豆泥、煙燻茄子醬等作爲蘸醬的多種開胃菜、新鮮蔬菜、橄欖以及膨鬆的麪包。這種餐前小菜本身就可作爲一頓飯。黎巴嫩的菜餚中有大量家禽和肉類，特別是羔羊肉（可烤制或者是燉制)。黎巴嫩的酒業也在不斷髮展，但你只能在被遞上酒單時點酒，因爲傳統伊斯蘭法律一般禁止飲酒

　　Russia 俄羅斯

The best meals are worth the money in Russia. If you see solyanka on the menu, don’t hesitate to order. This salty, sour and often spicy soup combined with meat or fish and topped with smetana, Russian sour cream, is delicious.

Borscht and pelmeni (dumplings) are ubiquitously Russian, but experiment with different varieties, such as salmon and wild mushroom pelmeni. Borscht can be spiced up with roasted apples and smoked goose breast. If you find the time, a culinary side trip to Georgia or Armenia in search of Azerbaijaini plov, a spiced rice dish cooked with meat and dried fruit, is worth the journey.

在俄羅斯，上等的美食值得你花錢品嚐。如果你在菜單上看到酸辣濃湯，那你一定要點。這個鹹、酸，通常還有點辣的湯裏有肉或魚，上面還加了“斯美塔那”——一種俄羅斯酸奶油，非常美味。羅宋湯和俄羅斯餃子“ 佩爾米尼”在俄羅斯非常常見，不過你也可以嚐嚐各種不同的口味，比如鮭魚和野蘑菇水餃。

羅宋湯可以用烘烤過的蘋果和薰鵝脯來提味。如果你有時間的話，可以順便去遊覽一下格魯吉亞或亞美尼亞，品嚐一種用肉和果脯烹製而成的香米飯 “Azerbaijaini plov”， 絕對不虛此行。

　　Spain 西班牙

If you’re anywhere in Spain, you must try Manchego. Manchego has an intense flavor, so enjoy it solo with bread, served with olives and meat or accompanied by a full-bodied red wine – a Rioja makes sense. Barcelona is part of Catalunya, a region in Spain that has a very distinct culture and cuisine. Musthaves include patatas bravas, crispfried potatoes with a secret sauce, and mel i mato, a curd cheese and honey dessert cooked in an earthenware pot. Even if you’re rushing on an overnight trip through Barcelona, don’t leave without sampling these two dishes!

如果你身處西班牙的某個地方，你一定要品嚐一下蒙契格乳酪。蒙契格乳酪味道濃郁，所以單獨配麪包吃，配上橄欖和肉，或是配一瓶醇香的紅酒就是一種享受——里奧哈紅酒是不錯的選擇。加泰羅尼亞是西班牙一個擁有獨特文化和美食的（自治）區，巴塞羅那便位於此區。身處巴塞羅那，你不可錯過的美食包括：烤辣味馬鈴薯—— 香酥土豆加上祕製醬料，蜂蜜奶酪—— 在一個陶鍋中以凝乳酪加蜂蜜製成的甜點。即使你要經過巴塞羅那連夜趕往他處，也不要錯過品嚐這兩道美食！
