Very strict on some things... for instance "Korean bbq" should be accepted for Korean Barbecue, and "Teahouse" for Tea room

Super fun quiz, great subject. The one thing Zagat's misses is the "fast food" category. Come on, Zag, everyone enjoys White Castle now and again...

I beg to differ! A good man, a very good man, named Babu Bat opened New York's first Pakistani restaurant in the 1990s.

@JohnJF: Obviously not all restaurants can be in Zagat. That said, they do a pretty good job. They must have missed your Pakistani Restarant, though.

A game best played when hungry. All you have to do is say, "Gee, I could sure go for..." and then type everything that comes to mind.

Cool quiz. I'd add the following alternates: "Burgers" for "Hamburgers" and "Szechuan" for "Sichuan."

I came up with some pretty awesome yet wrong food types here based on countries...kazakhstanish, jordanese, and chadian...was going for yemenese when yemenite popped up. Good quiz...I need to branch out next time I head to NYC...everytime I go I end up a some sort of European (English, Irish, German, etc) pub, steakhouse, pizza, or sushi place.

For bakery, could pastry be accepted? Aren't they often called pastry shops?

For awhile there this boiled down to a "name the countries +ese/ite/ian/etc." quiz. But I focused on that so much I missed pizza! D'oh.
@voljtw: Mmmm... Jordanese...

Agree with fm_ as to Burgers and Szechuan. Also, I typed "franks" and "frankfurter", which were not accepted for "hot dogs".

Afghani should be accepted for Afghan, since they are synonymous. I realize that you have to type "Afghan" to get there, but apparently I was typing too fast.

Silly me for assuming that "Cajun" and "Californian" would be subsumed under "American (Regional)", I guess.

Also Provencal (technically Provençal) for Provence.

Australian food? Really? What kind of food could an Australian restaurant in New York have? Is it just an Australian pizza shop or McDonald's?

19 Belgian restaurants and not one single Dutch/Netherlandish restaurant?
Maybe it's just me but I don't think that the "coffee" entries really qualify as "cuisine".

I typed 'speciality' - could this be an alternative for 'specialities'? Amazed there are so many 'European' restaurants, is this just a generic catch-all term (well most Americans are of European descent and therefore so is their food I guess?)
