1. Louisville, Kentucky, USA



And topping the list of food cities is Louisville Kentucky which is the birthplace of Hot Brown, an open-faced sandwich that was invented at the city's Brown Hotel as a midnight snack.

2. Chennai, India



Yet another chicken starter makes the cut, this one's from our very own Chennai.

Chicken 65, the deep-fried spicy delight, is said to have been invented in Chennai's Buhari Hotel.

Why 65? The folks at National Geographic believe that is the number of chillies used in the original recipe by the hotel's founder.

Gasp!

Some water perhaps? :-)

3. Buffalo, New York, USA



Buffalo Wings, as you may have well guessed, have nothing to do with the four-legged creature but rather the city in New York state.

The chicken finger food that turned 50 in 2014, owes its origins to the Anchor Bar Restaurant and brought its city to number three in National Geographic's list.

4. Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam




When you're colonised by the French, you can be assured that your cuisine will most certainly emerge richer.

The Vietnamese sandwich or banh mi sandwich is one such dish that the Vietnamese have to thank the French for.

Made out of French and Vietnamese ingredients -- baguettes, pate and mayonnaise and cucumber, jalapeno, cilantro and pickled carrots -- this delightful culinary blessing is the reason why Ho Chi Minh City is in this list.

5. Lyon, France



How good can a dish made of sliced pan-fried potatoes be you ask?

Good enough if it's been made in a city best-known for its cuisine.

The French city of Lyon, after which Lyonnaise Potatoes gets its name, is number five.

6. Cincinnati, Ohio, USA



If a city gulps down two million pounds of a dish you know the dish (and the city) ought to make the cut.

Cincinnati is number six, courtesy its famous spicy stew.
