Not necessarily the best meals (or places), but the meals (or places) that best represent your culture.

Canadian cuisine isn't really distinctive, but you should really try French fries with salt and malt vinegar before you perish.

Is malt vinegar on fries a Canadian thing? It's my go to for otherwise plain fries but I don't think its very common in my area.

I have nothing to contribute myself, I've only been briefly to anywhere in Canada other than home and I can't think of anything that isn't gimmick fast food, doesn't originate from other countries, or have a near identical equivalent elsewhere in the world. Like I had friends that lived on the rez and sometimes their parents would prep bannock dough that we would cook over a firepit and fill with honey and it was excellent, but its literally just honey on bread that was cooked on a stick.

Bannock is definitely Canadian.

It's not that we don't have good food here, we absolutely do, but there's very little that I'd Identity as Canadian specific cuisine, other than bannock, poutine, etc. It's just all sort of nondescript to me.

And I think the British also do malt vinegar. It's the best way to eat your fries.
