What's the best local food where you are boys?

For me in Finland, has to be salted salmon.

Take a salmon fillet, debone it, cover in thinly sliced garlic and rock salt. Put in a plastic bag and cover with 2 bags of frozen peas or rice or some other not too heavy weight press. Put in the fridge for 24 hours. Take it out and wash thoroughly in cold water. Slice off thin slivers then cover them with fresh dill. Eat on rye bread topped with some creamy creme freche (smetana, it's called here) or boiled egg slices.

Edit: Yay for wiki!
