Take a cruise in Alaska and Baked Alaska is sure to feature on the dessert menu. Is it Alaskan?

How about Chicken Tikka Masala?

One of the most deceptively named dishes would have to be Mongolian Beef.

One of the most popular dishes in Peru is Lomo Saltado. Strips of beef with onion and tomato. But is it Peruvian?
