For context, I live in the UK. A friend of ours wants us to try a new American themed restaurant for her birthday later in the year and I wondered what would be on offer?
Burgers, fries, steaks and tacos (all giant sized and overflowing the plates) and huge varieties of sugary and fatty desserts?
Or is that just what I'm lead to believe by the media? What is American cuisine? What are the non-fast food staples of a US diet? Why did those things immediately spring to mind when she mentioned "American" and "Diner"?
