What is Polish pizza made with anyway? Goat cheese, raw beef, and sadness?

I'll do two considering my location. This is being doe in five minutes because I have work.

NJ

Pros - Gorgeous lakes. Gas attendants. Less shopping tax. Beaches that don't suck as much as you think. Hiking. You can literally get whatever you want at any mall near you. Bagels. Pizza.

Cons - NJ Drivers. NJ housewives. Passaic County. Road repair sucks. The snow sucks. Christie sucks.

New York City

Ribbons hit it on the head. Literally everything Ribbons said.

Sorry, I know I shouldn't but this wins Trollheart's Post of the Week. For which you win nothing. It will not be delivered by UPS, but will be left in a dustbin you never use, halfway down an alley frequented by drunks and winos and coke ... on second thoughts, maybe you do use it.

Actually,**** it: I'm sigging this.

Speaking of pizza, me and my boss met a customer here for lunch today and chowed down a sausage, pepperoni, and meatball pie. Best NY style crispy thin crust pizza in San Diego.

Pizzeria Luigi - Golden Hill and Northpark- San Diego, CA

India
I Like exotic places here, and all sort of different cuisines we have from different region. I love several languages which sound sweet even when being used in arguments. I love Indian clothing of all region & religion.


I Dislike people being egoistic about there caste, creed, status, looks, profile etc. I hate riots been occurred for silly reasons & due different religion. I really don't like arrange marriage system here.

Birmingham:

Pros:

- Basically a smaller London, second largest UK city and far cheaper than the Big Smoke
- The location; the heart of England
- A city of innovators (see: The Lunar Society), more new businesses than anywhere outside the capital
- More universities than anywhere outside London
- Curry capital of Europe, a plethora of cheap, excellent balti houses in all corners of the city
- Food hub, more Michelin restaurants than Liverpool, Manchester and Leeds combined
- Very green city and is now a biophilic city along with Oslo and I think San Francisco
- Home of several sports inc. UK Athletics, the Football League, Tennis and Rugby
- Loads of beautiful parks including possibly the largest city park in Europe outside a capital (Sutton Park), Lickey Hills and the home of the Lord of the Rings, Moseley Bog
- Shopping hub with the Bullring plus Grand Central opening this year as well as Resorts World
- The NEC
- The Midland Metro
- The new NIA (Barclaycard Arena) is fucking sexy
- Spitfires, Minis, JCBs, Land Rovers & Jaguars
- The music is actually a true representation of the demographics of our city; Heavy Metal, Bhangra, Reggae, Ska etc
- Plenty of 'largest' festivals e.g. largest German market outside Germany, largest St. Patrick's Day parade in UK etc
- Cadbury
- Beautiful Jacobean and Victorian architecture
- Best skyline in UK alongside maybe Liverpool
- Suburbs best in UK outside of London; Four Oaks, Little Aston, Edgbaston etc
- English spoken today is derived from Birmingham & the Black Country
- A load of new developments I can't be bothered to list right now
- The accent m8

Cons:

- A city of well over a million people deserves a bus system that runs past midnight ffs
- Religious nutters along New Street and outside the TK Maxx store stopping you going about your daily business
- Not much of a strong identity especially compared to the big northern cities
- Not enough high rise buildings though this is more a UK problem than a Brum specific one
- Pessimistic/self deprecating locals
- Doesn't market itself well
- Not a great tram system but that will end this year when the Metro opens
- Furthest place in the UK from a beach? Though we have an artificial one in summer in Victoria Square
- Non Muslims are not allowed in

And just a pinch of prejudice sprinkled on top

A Polish pizza ain't bad actually, it's something like this:

Slices of Polish sausage and slices of pickles (potentially with more meat, onions, mushrooms) and it is surprisingly tasty! Well, sometimes.

Edit:
I've never eaten goat cheese, though I do see it on occasion in stores. Raw beef ? Like carpaccio ? I ate it twice, at Italian restaurants Sadness - that's true. Major part of our diet, swallowing our tears and whatnot.

The Batlord

Me neither. Goat cheese just felt right and I once heard a story about some place in Poland where everyone was eating raw beef. No idea if that's even a thing or if this place was an anomaly.

This post is spot on. Only just seen it. I used to have that ignorant opinion of Liverpool (dump, thieves etc) but having been there, it's a really nice place. It's better than Manchester.

Your point about Newcastle is interesting cos that's always been my view of the North East.

Re: Misconceptions, I know that feel. Once you've got it, it's nearly impossible to change.
