Yae ken wrong - though. It's freely available as a main - if you ask for it.
Just adorable - and all the wonderful strong basil/tomato flavoured sauce.
Nothing compares. Bit of garlic bread with both mozzarella and parmesan - too.
Served with a tomato and white onion salad.
All washed down with a fine Pinot-Grigio.
Hungry now ! !
Same with Spanish really..though it has improved drastically in the last 20 years.I think the top-end Spanish restaurants are better than Italian these days,but the overall/average level?
Prefer Italian to Spanish food - though.
Was watching (BBC2) the other night - 'Michael Portillo's Train Journeys'.
He went to a Kent vineyard that has just won the world's best sparkling wine award....
It beat every champagne (even the single grapes) that entered ! !

arbon, Like nutrax said most of the English fare in the US is can be found at pubs and I'm not the most well versed when it comes to English food so i wouldnt be able to tell you if its great or just whatever compared to English food in from the UK. I've been to your hood a couple times, more specifically vancouver, and found a bunch of tasty stuff to eat in BC, alot of it being Chinese.17
I am going to have to go back to the US because I thought the food was terrible, but people on here all rave about it. I like variety and all different cuisines so I quite like here in New Zealand (also really really good coffee here), but if we are going somewhere we don't live then Peru would be my favourite place for food. But I am off to Greece and Turkey soon so that may change.23
In Italy, the pasta is served in small portions - like, one-quarter the amount of pasta used in Britain, billy.25

I'd say French cuisine is more up and down...some great but lots of real rubbish too,particularly at the low budget end.And particularly in tourist places.......Same with Spanish really..though it has improved drastically in the last 20 years.I think the top-end Spanish restaurants are better than Italian these days,but the overall/average level?

Local Costa del Sol (white) single grape (Dominion) - is one of the fruitiest I've ever tasted.Prefer Italian to Spanish food - though.
