Heritage Festival 2012: Poffertjes
They are small, buttery pancakes covered in icing sugar served at the Dutch pavilion. Can't really go wrong here.
Heritage Festival 2012: Bolani
Afghanistan's Bolani is still my favourite non-meat dish at the Heritage Festival. If a green onion cake married a potato pancake, this would be the result. It's a chewy, flavourful adventure and the creamy dip is so refreshing.
Heritage Festival 2012: Sweet and Sour Chicken
I don't usually go for food at the Chinese pavilion at the Heritage Festival, because I eat so much of it in my day to day life. However, my companion was absolutely hungry for the sweet and sour chicken.
Fried, dry bits of chicken with some generic sweet and sour sauce poured over it. He was not impressed with the flavour or texture. At seven tickets, the portion was along the lines of Asian chicken dishes we had at Taste of Edmonton. We considered this dish a fail.

Heritage Festival 2012: Apple Strudel at Germany
Small, but incredibly sweet and full of apple flavour. This is four tickets' worth of apple heaven. The pastry is flaky and covered in hard icing, while the apple filling is quite rich.
