Canada was once colonized by France and England, France stated a few territories which kept the language in order to mantain peace with England. Canadda became independent from the United Kingdom in 1867. Now a days it is the SECOND biggest country in the world, it has a 9,984,670 km2 total territorial surface divided in THIRTEEN districts. Canadian gastronomy is diverse and very tasty (as some might say), since their culinary traditions come from british, french and indigenous roots. Within the country's regions we can find dishes based on cow meat, lamb, bison, duck, goose and other birds, as well as delicious fish and seafood in the coast zones.
Known this, here there is ONE dish & ONE drink you must know and try for each of the THIRTEEN canadian districts. In case you ever have the time to cover 9,000,000 km2 of terrestrial surface.
