US has nothing to do with it. I mean the best creme brulee that -I have
tried-. My current sampling has included a number of countries outside
of the US, although unfortunately not yet France. To Tieum's claim,
I'll have to one day verify for myself, but I reject the assumption
that because a country invented something (or at least named it), that
they hold perpetual claim to being the best at it. Too many examples
through history of other countries improving on ideas pioneered
elsewhere.
But as long as I'm on the topic of making claims that leave the French
aghast, you must know this: prior to K-Paul's vaulting to the top of
the list, the previous best creme brulee I had found--and I have
trouble believing this myself--was in a small hotel in Bracknell UK.
Yeah, I know.
Might have been a fluke, as I've never returned to try it again and see
if they are consistent over time.
