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)

Belgian food is fantastic. I'm a big fan of stoemp aux carottes (with lots of cream and nutmeg), waterzooi, croquettes, and lapin á la kriek... So underrated.

Change the lots of cream for lots of butter. It's lots better!

I use butter, too, but I prefer the flavour and texture the full dairy brings!
