Is Serious Eats East Coast focused?
Is the goal of serious eats to focus on East Coast (New York) topics or is it location independent?

Our goal is always to get people talking about the things they love to eat! Some of us are in New York, so we're talking about the food we know, but Serious Eats lives wherever there is good food.

Hoping this means that NYC includes not only the wonderful food found in Manhattan, but the great food located in the outer boroughs, too. :) I'm personally partial to the amazing food in Queens (where I live), and love talking about it!

I agree, any conversation about food in NYC has to include all the boroughs! Also, a personal example of some serious eating. On Wednesday, I ate a burrito in San Francisco. Today, I had tacos in Sunset Park, Brooklyn. Good food is everywhere, and I'm going to eat it!

Well, we in Los Angeles will try to add some West Coast flavor.

I think most New Yorkers who are serious about eats know better than to be east-of-the-Hudson-centric. From my time in California, I miss Rubio's fish tacos, Jack in the Box, and Carl's Jr. almost as much as In n Out.

I'm in Indiana. We're not known for being trendsetters in haute cuisine (unless you include county fair foods in that category) so I live vicariously through websites like this. I enjoy reading about restaurants and trends from all over- it seems that New Yorkers are extremely passionate and have the most to day about their most beloved or hated places to dine.

AuntJone: County fair foods are TOTALLY within the realm of "serious eats." They're one of the things I really miss here. A good funnel cake is always welcome on SE (or a good elephant ear, which I think supplants the funnel cake out west). One of my short-term goals is replicate Alton Brown's corn dog recipe with the deep-fryer I hope to get for Christmas this year.
I would add that no food is off-limits on Serious Eats. From foie gras to fairground, it's all fair game. As long as YOU seriously love it, it's serious eats.

I would love to get New England food feedback! There are a lot of restaurants around here, and as a newbie to New England, I need help disovering them!

I work for Zingerman's in Ann Arbor Michigan. We have some stellar food! The Roadhouse focuses on down home food made from the best ingredients available in the States. The Deli carries fantastic food from around the globe (and the best locally grown meats and produce) and has the best ruebens in the midwest.

I am from the east coast of India and we love a good (Hot) fish curry and rice. People in Orissa State(where I came from) and West Bengal (Calcutta area) love fish with mustard sauce. It goes well with plain rice. Our favorite fishes are rock fish, cat fish, rui, shad. And large shrimps(prawns) are very good also, for this curry.
