Reading a dish like a map
| Clue on the plate | Where it often points |
|---|---|
| Flatbread and yogurt | The Middle East and South Asia |
| Tortillas and beans | Mexico and Central America |
| Noodles and soy | East Asia |
| Coconut and lemongrass | Southeast Asia |
| Potatoes and rye bread | Northern and Eastern Europe |
Getting closer, not just right
Points come from distance, so a near miss still scores. If you know the region but not the country, drop your pin in the middle of the region rather than gambling on one corner. Over time you will learn which dishes cross borders, like dumplings, and which belong to one place.
Unsure of the country? Aim for the middle of the region.
