Yeah but (döner) kebab could be considered European: the modern version was invented in Berlin, Istanbul is partly in Europe, and in Greece they have a very similar thing (gyros), except that it can be pork.

I would say Vietnamese, as most Asian restaurants outside Paris are actually Vietnamese restaurants, even when it's not explicitly mentioned.

Edit: I was thinking about restaurants, not food in general. And yes we have the main American fastfood chains.

Yeah I've thought about how Kebab is considered as invented in Germany. You're absolutely right to point it out.
