France! I love the escargot bites (really cute little canapes) and the coq au vin with mac n cheese is to die for. Doesn't sound like a combination, but it really works. France was my favorite, but so many are really good.

I was with my husband last time, who doesn't like seafood, and we share samples. This time, I'm going solo and I'm planning to hit all the shellfish I missed last time. I did manage to get a shrimp taco in Mexico and the Fisherman's pie in Ireland-- both really good.

Love the milk chocolate creme brulee from France, a pumpkin mouse with crunchy topping (not too sure whatall this is exactly called), and Polish pierrogi

Oh boy... :eat: ... love the pierogies in Poland, Fisherman's Stew in Ireland (as well as their molten lava chocolate dessert... :tasty:), the sushi in Japan (almost always have seconds) and the Greek cheese thingy :blush: in Greece. Can't think of the rest w/o seeing a menu reminder, so I guess that means that since these are the meals I can come up with off the top of my head, that they're my #1's!! :)

Very hungry now.... ;)

Some of my favorites are
Greece - Griddled Greek Cheese w/ Honey
Hawaii - Pork Slider
New Zealand - Seared Scallop
Ireland- FIsherman's stew and the cheese plate
Germany- Apple Strudel. Last year it was huge and so good!

This year I plan on checking out the offerings at new Terra (vegan ) and Florida booths as well as try some new ones.

I am also looking forward to the Chocolate Experience and the wine sampling.

I'm a Mexico guy. Whatever they have is always excellent. Also, I like the different beers that are offered at almost all booths.
