No, a Crème brûlée would have to be served in a ramekin and would have a hard crunchy sugar topping to it which you have to break through with your spoon, the picture shows a Crème caramel (here in the UK anyway) which is soft caramel in the bottom of a ramekin, pour over custard, let it set and then turn it out onto a plat upside down like in the pic. A Flan in the UK is something completely different so I was really confused when that came up when I typed in Crème caramel!

In the US, flan is the same as other's creme caramel. It's often served in Mexican restaurants. Caramelize sugar and make a syrup, then pour in a ramekin or baking dish. Spoon in egg custard and bake. Invert to serve so the syrup runs over it. Some add whipped cream on top. Panna cotta contains cream, sugar, and gelatin but no eggs. Flan contains eggs and no gelatin.

That is a creme brulee. It is not a flan....a flan is pastry based.

The flans I make are a cake base with a depressed center (special tin) that you fill with fruit.

That's not a creme brulee (hard layer of burnt sugar on top), but a creme caramel (runny layer of burnt sugar on top).

Flan in European-English derives from a High German word for a flat cake, via French, and technically means a dish with an open pastry or sponge case. Typically the meaning is narrower due to most dishes that could be called flan being called quiches or tarts or pies*. Flan in American-English takes an extra step via Spanish. Despite having a perfectly good word or three for custard anyway, the Spanish decided to call custard-based dishes flans even if they don't have a case around them - probably as quiches have a savoury custard, as do custard tarts/flans patissier.

*A flan in England is typically a sponge base with a raised edge topped with fruit and sometimes jelly or cream as well. But it is also used for quiche-like dishes occasionally (quiche seems to have been a high-class word 50 years ago and some still won't use it).

Corn syrup, vanilla, and honey flavors. It includes gelatin in the ingredients, but the texture is waxy, not spongy like marshmallows. There are recipes online if you want to make your own.

Agreed. Bocconcini is immature mozzarella, and that's what is pictured here. I wrote it a bunch of times thinking I was spelling it wrong, and then gave up and wrote mozzarella. Please can you accept bocconcini as well? The photo even depicts the traditional size of bocconcini (which translates to "little mouthfuls").

Being from Mexico made me almost fail the kebab one!

One of Mexico myriad of tacos are the "Tacos al Pastor", which are prepared in a similar vertical rotisserie (known as "trompo"), often crowned with a pineapple or onion. This is basically because their origins are the shawarmas from Lebanese immigrants.

For many Mexicans it's not only the best taco of all, but it's also the quintessential Mexican taco. So much that a filled trompo is the common taqueria icon (more than a taco itself).

If you come to Mexico, you should definitively trying them.

Tacos al pastor are amazing. They're here in Texas too. I imagine they're in other border states as well. The best ones are found in old mom-and-pop tacquerias, but "street tacos" are a popular food fad that borrow heavily from traditional Mexican recipes and those are popping up in over-priced food trucks and trendy neighborhoods.
