American created food

World Showcase has a lot of restaurants exhibiting foods from other countries while American pavilion has traditional quick service food or Barbecue. Why not a quick service that has American food made by Americans , but associated with other country or ethnicity? Pizza is America. There are no breakfast burritos in Mexico.

If memory serves me correct I believe Naples is the birthplace of pizza...I think Italian immigrants popularized it here in America. At least that's what I remember when visiting Naples I was excited to be eating from the birthplace of original pizza. I'm not sure there's anything more quintessentially American cuisine wise than BBQ. Maybe a secondary spot where they can do twists on other countries favorites like you say might be interesting.

This thread just shows what a "melting pot" America is.

The American Indian created BBQ and hamburgers and hot dogs are from Germany. Not sure that there is a true American food.

I thought Larry Hotdog invented the hot dog.
