You should eat some bigos.
But every mom and grandma will do it their own way.

MODERATORS
Kässpätzle are definitely a hidden gem.
On the other hand Sauerkraut is probably overrated. I like it but it's not as commonly eaten as you may think.
Borscht can be both, depending on the skill of the cook
Shepherds pie!
Beef Wellington
I'm Belgian. Avoid Leffe, this is a quite bland "Belgian beer". The classic Trappist beers are always a good choice (Orval, Chimay, Rochefort, etc.), but don't sleep on the new microbreweries, their beers can be quite innovative and refreshing
A few
As a Czech I would also suggest to go for smaller brewery, because of our tax system the beer is just negligibly more expensive than from big brewerys.
I will be in Belgium hopefully in about 3 months and because I will bike there I will have a lot of time for tasting. Also I will like to visit some beer festival, if the timing will be right.
And cervela with samurai sauce is a hidden gem!
Overrated? I don't know. But have you tried the mighty kapsalon?
Tortilla de patata is overrated, IMO. About hidden gems, idk.
Tortilla de patata is great actually! Don't be too hard on your cuisine. 😺
I don't like it! Croquetas are wayyy better, but I don't consider them a "hidden" gem :b
swedish meatballs are overrated.
don't sleep on a really good Janssons Frestelse though. that and small-batch pickled herring with weird herbs in it.
isterband is also good but that's probably a more pan-european thing.
also, i will always use moments like this to bring up the culinary sleep paralysis demon that is the calskrove.
Beck's is definitely overrated. I don't know how it's become so popular.
On the other hand, Labskaus is damn delicious, I need to make a vegan variant one day. Labskaus and kale with potatoes and meat variety is what I really miss since turning vegan.
