Apart from Paella , there is a much diverse cuisine in europe. Seriously are these your top picks?
Paella is the best, by far! It is extremely complicated to ellaborate properly, and super tasty!!

Are you disputing the fact fries are world-famous? Have you tried them? If so, and given the fact fries are served all over the world, it goes to show how popular they are. Same with baguette. It's not easy to make perfect baguette, just like it's not easy to make perfect pizza, etc. The art of cooking / making food is in making something that looks simple and easy in something that is delicious. Same goes with e.g. sushi, an omelette, tofu, making a good sauce,... Everyone can do it, but few can master it.

At the end of the day its just all about your personal preferences.....so, as an Indian who has grown up on biryanis and pulaos, I was honestly not impressed by the paella I tried in Madrid. Maybe it was a touristy version I tried, though it was a very highly rated high-end restaurant we tried paella at....I liked weiner schnitzel in Vienna but the best weiner schnitzel I had was in Milan, Italy as the cotletta milanesa.... My vote for best European food (from my limited experience) goes to Czech food....I just loved the simple heartiness of meat, sauce and dumplings or mashed potatoes, sausages etc. Everything I tried was tasty and I just can't believe Czech food is not more well-known....

I agree Madrid is not the best place for paella. It's also not very typical from there. Madrid are better at hearty stews. I also 100% agree the Schnitzel is just a bad milanese (we call Schnitzels milanese because it originates in Milan). My favourite European cuisine is Italian because, if it is not a touristic place, it has always been lovely. But in the end, there might be so many other dishes I have never tried that could be absolutely lovely. Like, I have no idea how Hungarian cuisine tastes like.

I could add 39 more dishes to try but I agree with the list of 5 that was shown.
i think just Paella deserves to be on the list, and why they missed to include Italian food !!

Delicious 😊😊😊
only paella is the exception, The rest is greasy, there is so much variety in Europe, the cuisine of the Balkans, the one from Eastern Europe that has healthy and very delicious recipes With this video they are giving me to understand that European food only boils down to French fries (not even potatoes are of European origin) and fat.
I like paella, but those pans are difficult to clean. One time I tried to take a shortcut by tying them together with a rope and tossing them into the ocean overnight. When I came back the next morning, all of them washed away except one. Man, my boss was so mad at me for doing that.
Agree with you 5/5! I just would have changed the order a little.
If im travelling in europe, the last thing that i want to eat is fry. Fries are worldwide, best to try real local food.
Traditionally you eat the Currywurst with french fries on the side. Best of many worlds :D
Although I Agree with number one is really great, you should have Mussels with them, Moules et des Frites

Paella is the name of the dish and pan so when you say paella pan, you are saying pan pan to a Spaniard.
I was in Amsterdam last summer and one of the main things we wanted to do was try the fries, Luckily, our hotel was just up the street from a ‘Manneken Pis’ which is supposed to have the best fries in all of Holland. Okay, they were good but honestly, I’ve had the same quality fries here in the U.S. A large cone is more than enough to fill you up so it’s an inexpensive meal. I would recommend trying them but just don’t get your hopes up…
I don’t really understand the hype about currywurst, I’ve tried it a couple times and it is barely edible 😅 and the rest of the list is also weird and german-centric, there are loads and loads of better dishes in Europe. I understand taste is subjective but this is not DW food´s proudest moment.

Its about things europe excels in. And all of them are so tasty they are worth every bite. Famous in the whole world, but hard to copy. Currywurst is simply delicious, seems like you never tried one. Most sauces are homemade with vinegar, apples and a certain spice mix. Its not just Ketchup 🤦♀ and Belgium makes the best fries in the world, they are worth every bite.
Thank you for these stupid suggestions. Something traditional and classy like Schäuferla, Jägerbraten, Rostbrätel, osso bucco, coq au vin, Goulaschz would have left an deeper imprssion on a tourist than a Bratwurst and a Baguette
