A lot of food we like is regional. Within each region, you'll have to learn some of the lingo if you want to order like the locals. We'll do our best to keep a running list of terms and phrases in alphabetically order even! This is by no means a scholarly source of information. Please let us know if there is a correction to be made. You will also find words and or phrases that only surface during buffets, potlucks, and anytime your inner fat kid wants to speak. Thanks in advance fellow Drunkeatarians.
