As such a big and varied country, it comes as no surprise that American cuisine is about as diverse as it gets. Influenced by Europeans and native Americans in its early history, each state offers a unique take on popular national dishes along with a tantalizing menu all of its own.<\/p>\n

Traditional US dishes include the delicious Apple Pie. This sweet treat is a national institution that you simply must try, with people devoting a lifetime to its perfection. The USA is also the home of the hamburger, with New Haven in Connecticut recognised as its birthplace. Here in 1900, the hamburger was established at Louis\u2019 Lunch, ran by one Louis Lassen. And you have to try Clam Chowder. Whilst maybe not the most attractive looking dish its taste is divine.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
