No True National Dish in Canada Says Official
Vancouver CP reports Hugh Craig president of the Canadian Restaurant association argues Canada will never have a national dish due to its size. He cites regional specialties such as lobster in the Maritimes soup in Quebec and beef in Alberta, noting a trend toward restaurant specialization with steak houses and pizza palaces. An oddity noted is demand for barbecued pig tails in Western Canada. Oliver Cromwell relics reportedly tossed into nesting pots to mask traces of monarchy.
