World's Best Fast Food Revealed By Chowzter
You won't find any KFC Double Downs or Taco Bell waffle tacos on this list. The 2nd annual Chowzter Awards recognize the best "fast feasts" in the world, from street food, to food court dishes and other fast food eateries. This year's overall best fast food in the world went to the ceviche at Chez Wong in Lima, Peru. The ceviche is prepared in the traditional Peruvian way, with the sashimi-grade octopus and flounder resting in a bowl of tiger's milk. Chowzter also recognized the best seafood, vegetarian dish, rice dish, noodles, sandwich, bakery items, and pizza.
