Perhaps the most traditional of all Luxembourg foods is the Judd Mat Gaardebounen. Smoked pork collar with broad beans. The meat is drenched for two days.

DISCLAIMER!!

I WAS NOT ABLE TO BRING THE PIZZA BURGER IN SINCE I ATE IT

Apart from the traditional foods, Luxembourg is also the second country, just a week after Japan, to make the Pizza burger. Dad and his friend Gary, who owns a Burger King made me my own pizza burger and it was delicious! But very few fast food restaurants serve it. And yes, the pizza burger in the picture behind is exactly like the one I ate
