Which of these kinds of meals have you ever had?

Canadian Thanksgiving dinner, Christmas dinner, brunch, English Breakfast, High Tea, Chinese Dim Sum

Just American Thanksgiving & Christmas; brunch; Chinese dim sum from this list.

American Thanksgiving, Christmas dinner, and brunch.

All but Kaiseki.

About the Indonesian Rijsttafel... that is a Dutch invention:

The Dutch ruled Indonesia, once the richest agricultural region in the world for 320 years. The Moluccas, a part of the Indonesian archipelago, were the original Spice Islands, suppling the entire world with black pepper, nutmeg, mace and cloves. These centuries of Dutch rule left an indelible mark on the country's cuisine.

They are responsible for the Rijsttafel (rice table) which originated with Dutch plantation owners who liked to sample selectively from Indonesian cuisine. It became a kind of tradition, and the Dutch because of their fondness for Rijsttafel, introduced it into the Netherlands. Today, in both Holland and Indonesia, the Rijsttafel is a real culinary pleasure.

Called a forerunner of the all-you-can-eat Chinese buffet, Rijsttafels, at times featuring more than a 100 dishes, are a great way to sample numerous Indonesian dishes in one meal.

I have had american thanksgiving, Canadian thanksgiving, dinner at christmas time, brunch and chinese dim sum...andim sumore.

Count me in on traditional Thanksgiving and Christmas dinners. The "brunches" I've attended have been not quite breakfast, not quite lunch... sort of quiche like, if you get my drift.

I have been to numerous old fashioned, family type Italian meals.

What is dim sum, I love Chinese food! I might have had it but didn't know the name!

Just Thanksgiving and Christmas.... and Brunch.

Give me a roast anyday

Thanksgiving and Christmas dinner, brunch, and probably the Japanese thing as I was over there for a while. I'm not familiar with the word though.

I knew it had to be you who made this one! I've had most of these, with you.

I'll assume that American Thanksgiving dinner is same as what we have in Canada.

I'm not sure if I've had English breakfast, although I have had breakfast in England. What does it entail? Maybe I'll know if I've had it if I know what's in it.
I've never had Indonesian rijsttafel. But I've had Ethiopian dinner (with the big sourdough bread "plate"), Passover seder, Hanukkah dinner, and Japanese breakfast.

I'm sure we haven't had kaiseki together but we've probably had all the others...

Classic english breakfast is eggs, sausages, bacon, tomato and toast... sometimes with beans or mushrooms... all fried.

Dim sum is lots of little dishes... things like steamed pork buns, spring rolls, egg custard tarts, taro dumplings, shrimp balls, rice steamed in lotus leaves, usually served from carts; the staff wheel the cart around and you point at the dishes you want and they mark a card for the price.

The top three.

I guess I've had that, whether or not it was officially an English breakfast. I've had English breakfast tea a lot--does that count?!

Yeah, kaiseki was the only one I didn't have.

We always ordered "family style" with a lot of everything. I thought dim sum was one specific dish! Boy, do I feel dumb. Shows how long it's been since I've been out to eat Chinese!

American Thanksgiving, Christmas dinner, brunch. In the other category, I like some Indian food.

I think English Breakfast tea only counts if you have it with a lot of fried eggs and pork...

Christmas Dinner, Brunch, and Thanksgiving Dinner

I've probably done that. Although I often have English Breakfast tea at non-breakfast times. Very inappropriate of me, I'm sure.

I've had a Sunday Picnic, Beach Barbecue, Tailgate Party, Potluck and Midnight Kitchen Raid too, just to name some others.

I'm stunned, simply stunned!

all except the Japanese and Indonesian.......... though I have had the Come in late from drinking (starving) and make three egg sandwiches with cheese type meal

We do not approve!

Never had an American Thanksgiving dinner - even though I've probably had the actual food served. Just not on that day (whatever day that is) or for that occasion.

I think it's okay to have Thanksgiving dinner not on Thanksgiving... we're having it next weekend.

Have you heard the new Kate Bush album?

I have no idea what English Breakfast, Spanish Tapas, Kaiseki or Rijsttafel are.

> About the Indonesian Rijsttafel... that is a Dutch invention:

I knew that, you oppressor of Indonesia!

I am the shame of the kate bush community. I don't like the new album. But I think it could be a slow grower. I hate 'The Dreaming' when it first came out, and I now love it to bits.

I think that the Pi song is a bit odd... but I like it a lot now.

I love the second disc. The imagery of A Sea of Honey/A Sky of Honey really grabs me...

I'm sure that the Kate Bush community will forgive you eventually... some day... maybe...

Haha... yes, those were the days, my friend.

That depends on what criteria qualify as being the meals listed in these options...I dont know what some of them even are......

American Thanksgiving, and Christmas dinners

Italian Thanksgiving dinner! Spaghetti with home made noodles and gravy that takes all day to make. I hated it.

Wow! I'm boring! Never knew that ...
