Well, I will start.
I have never been abroad, but I have been to some wonderful places here in the USA. One of my favorite places is The Greens, a gourmet vegetarian restaurant right on San Francisco Bay. Actually, I don't think I ate at a bad restaurant in San Franciso!

As a kid, I really like McArthur Park in San Francisco known for their BBQ ribs but I was a kid.
One of my favorite places is Top of the World at the Stratosphere in Las Vegas. Best piece of steak I've ever eaten...

What are the best meals and /or the best restaurants you have ever enjoyed?
I had half a cow (they cut the steaks big in Argentina), with 5 different types of potato, a chorizo with some more potatoes, lamb, and 2 different chinese dishes. Then I went to the pasta part, and got pasta cooked up fresh with the sauce of my choice, cooked up fresh before my eyes. Then for desert I had a taste of 3 cakes, then a plate of ice cream. Then I went to the creperia part of the restaurant, and got an orange crepe, again, cooked up freshly before my eyes, with cream and some more ice cream.
I could barely walk out of the place. I'm not normally such a pig (that pic in my profile isn't me, in case you're thinking 'no wonder...'😉 ), but we had just come from 3 weeks in Santiago, and to be honest, I struggled with the food in Chile, and seemed to live on hot dogs) The BEST thing was that the whole lot only cost me about €5 including 1 litre of beer.
