As an American, my first and thus far only trip to Europe was to Hamburg a few years ago. Passing through the Hauptbahnhof every day the huge bakery was loving incredible for this motherfucker with a pasty sweet tooth. I feel like I'm moderately well car and plane traveled in the US, but have never come across such a massive variety and quantity of pastries in a single location. My knee-jerk guess is that being in the train station, they may not even have been great by German standards, but as far as I was concerned, everything I tried was either on par or better than any good-to-great bakeries I've eaten at here. And the quantity surely meant that it sold through and I'm guessing similar amounts in other train stations? Furthermore, they have to be long-standing staples of stations dating back to their inceptions so most Germans must take them completely for granted? My hats off and my belly hangs out to you, Germany.

I would like to bring everyone's attention to my other discovery in Hungary: Kürtőskalács, aka. the Hungarian chimney cake (or chimney cone). You wrap dough around a slightly-tilted cylinder on a spit, brush with butter, sugar, and possibly other flavourings like cinnamon, and you roast them over a fire.  You could eat them as is, but the best way is to stuff ice cream and other toppings into them. I met a friend on Bloor St. in Toronto a week ago, and had forgotten how much I loved them, so I introduced her to them at Eva's Original Chimneys. They have multiple combos now that include Nutella, coconut, apple crumble, s'mores, etc. Even the ones in Budapest I had were similar in variety. The Facebook page for the main shop I went to has tons of pictures. Here's a basic filled one:  Here's the "unicorn" one I had on my last night there. Tasted exactly like it looked, but good:  Word of warning: you eat them like an ice cream cone, but digging the ice cream from inside is annoying without a spoon, so get one if you can because they don't crumble like ice cream cones do.

They’re popping up all over Warsaw, and we’ve never had them in Poland before. They also use the name “kołacz” which is in my mind smth completely different but GIS seems to disagree

You're probably thinking of Kołaczki, which are these:  Google says that "kołacz" is basically any round dough with filling, and it makes sense that "kolaczki" is the diminutive version of that.

 I found this bad boy on a shopping run recently. Hot dogs! Burgers! Zapiekanka! Vegan options! This place has everything, even if I have no idea what the building is actually supposed to be. They also sell Oscypek, a type of cheese made in the Polish mountains by shepherds. Oscypek was pushed for a while as fast food (you can grill it or eat it cold) and sold from stalls and booths all over the city, but it hasn’t caught on, as no sane person will snack on a 250 gram slab of cheese on their commute. Still, they sell it here and it is versatile, working great as a pizza topping or with a side serving of cranberry jam.

Holy poo poo, I remember visiting Zakopane almost 20 years ago and constantly seeing that cheese. Every time I saw it, I kept thinking they were buns of some kind, because they had the exact same brown sheen that my mom's baked buns had. I don't think I tried it because travelling with my parents then and getting them to spend more than the absolute barest minimum of money on something was like trying to draw blood from a stone.

DeadFatDuckFat posted:Wait, so its just a hunk of cheese? Not even in a bun or anything? yeah. though the smoking process gives it a hard protective layer, and the whole thing's a bit rubbery, so it's not at all like biting into a big piece of regular cheese. also the sheep milk gives it a characteristic taste.

Here's some finnish 'pizza' from our first and biggest franchise chain Kotipizza: Lankku 'Board' Pizza:  Paper thin base, with cheddar sauce (i.e not cheese), nothing tomato-based. Topped with Chicken, Feta-cheese, Avocado and Rucola. Oh and chili-mayo. Monster pizza:  This ones called 'Texas' Regular pizza with some extra dough on top. It got Ham, Bacon, Kebab, Pepperoni and Salami as ingredients. It comes with a dip to use with those extra pieces of dough on top. Then there's Salad Pizzas, or Kotzones:  This one need knife and fork to eat with. It's a regular pizza folded over with some mixed salad added. This one has Salami and blue cheese as ingredients. Last, they do sell regular pizzas:  Berlusconi has high fiber dough and comes with Smoked reindeer, Red onions and Chanterelle mushrooms.

The mayo on pizza thing in Europe is something the nordics and Scandinavians seem to like. Many pizza chefs in Poland were trained in Sweden in the 90s and they brought back the Gud Fadern pizza (now, sadly, going out of style), which has shrimp, ham, onions, mushrooms and mayo slathered on top. I fuckin love it.

When I was at school the local kebab place did pizzas, we would often get their doner pizza, probably the greasiest thing the human stomach can handle. Tasted great though.

Pineapple is tart, fibrous and toothsome. Banana has none of these qualities and Scandinavians are just terminally bored pizza contrarians.

I can only imagine it's mostly used for fries. My store is in Wisconsin, naturally. Mayo with fries isn't a new thing though. I've heard of other parts of the US mixing mayo and ketchup and calling it "fry sauce." I haven't heard that term here before though. I went last month and took a pic of it because I thought it was funny. Bad pic because I didn't want to look like a goober.
