Friday Five: More (and more) Questions About Buildings and Food

This week's Friday Five:

1. What's the best layered food? Definitely pizza, followed very closely by burgers.
   
   
   Tartufata pizza with black truffle, taleggio, and fruilano cheese, and porcini and shiitake mushrooms from 255 by Alta Rossa
   
   Shack Stack from Shake Shack
   
2. What's the best rolled food? Maki sushi.
   
   
   Diablo Roll and Salmon Lover's Roll from Markham Sushi
   
   Kiu Signature Lobster Maki from Kiu
   
3. What's the most recent cuisine you've tried for the first time from an ethnicity not your own? I genuinely can't remember the last time I tried a new cuisine for the first time. But I did try Spanish tapas for the first time last November. It wasn't my first time having Spanish food, but it was my first time eating in that style.
   
   
4. What's a food that scares you? Anything with insects.
   
   
5. What's something you eat solely because it's good for you? Plain steamed vegetables, especially Chinese varieties, like gai lan or choy sum. In the right dishes or with the right sauces, they can be pretty tasty, but they're tedious to eat on their own.
