There are not many dishes that are considered »classics«. In Germany, you can definitely put the well-known Wiener Schnitzel on the list (even though it’s from Austria). The US has a lot of these dishes that are known all over the world – the famous Waldorf Salad is just one of them. You probably guessed it already there is a connection to the Waldorf Astoria Hotel ;) Have you ever had one? The salad had its heyday in the last century, so if you are younger than 30 the chances are quite slim… ;P
