I can see how some people prefer to stick to what they know but if I'm somewhere I want to try local stuff (draw the line at wierd stuff like frogs legs or snails and all that though haha).
I remember going on a trip to Luxembourg and Belgium and the first thing people headed for was an irish bar and fast food places a la mcdonalds?!?!?! I managed to get them into a waffle house in the end though :)
My ex was a bit like that, not very adventurous but would then get meal envy (especially goulash in Prague) with stuff I ordered and, in the end, would often ask me to order for me.

I've had some amazing local food when abroad, waffles in Belgium (and Hagan Daas at it's own shop) and pancakes in Amsterdam, veal schnitzel in Romania and Prague, gorgeous pasta and sorbet in Milan and Lake Como.
France though, I must say, had the most gorgeous food, the homemade soups, bread fresh from the boulangerie, crepes, pain au chocolate, the coffee....oh I could go on....

Random story....
I stayed with a family while working in France and it was a running joke that I loved the cheese course, especially one of the soft cheeses, "kiri", they used to save it for me :)
When I got back I'd ask others if they had ever come across it, including french people like mty former housemate. No-one had ever heard of it.
years later, somehow it came up in a conversation with my boss that I was going to look out for it again and he looked at me and said, what, la vache qui rit...
Laughing sodding cow, how embarrassing lol :)
