The celebrity chef has eaten it all, in every country. Here are his most memorable US dining experiences, from pizza at L&B Spumoni Gardens to cebiche at La Mar. In a nation of immigrants, America's food scene is often inspired by culinary traditions from around the world, with each region in the country drawing from a variety of international influences. Depending on what state you're in, a "quintessential American meal" might refer to Cajun soul food, a Philadelphia cheese steak or something as simple as New York City's $1 slice of pizza. And yet, fast food tends to dominate the global imagination of American cuisine. But here in the United States, conversations about culinary excellence are increasingly revolving around quality, sustainability and diversity.
