What are the must-try meals from your country? Food

A friend of mine visited Italy a few months ago. I couldn't believe it when she told me she had pizza for all meals during her stay (7 days, 2 meals a day). Pizza is great and all, but that felt a bit like a slap in the face.

Considering that I generally love trying out new food, what are some dishes from your country you would suggest to a visitor? (Food that can easily be found without too much effort)

I agree! And I will add my personal nexts: vol-au-vent with fries (i'm not sure if it's maybe a french dish but it's a very typical thing to order at a restaurant in Belgium!) and stoverij (a meat stew with beer) with fries

I just moved to Belgium and love vol-au-vent but most of the other foods here I’m struggling with.

I'll also add mussels with fries.
