And I swear, Paris has less non-native food restaurants of any other major city in Europe or America

Hmmmm. There sure are enough Thai, Italian, Chinese and <fill in the blank> places, but in Europe I would have given that award to London (limited experience, though). I'd almost guess that NYC, LA, Chicago, San Fran would beat Paris, too, but then there's maybe a problem with defining what qualifies as "native" American food. OK, if we count the Burger Kings my analysis is doomed!

I'm no gourmet, but *lots* of great chow in France, Paris included, though perhaps Paris isn't the most balanced example of that. Italy? Great food. Best food I've ever had? Barcelona and thereabouts.
