Sarisin Posted June 7, 2003 Report Share Posted June 7, 2003 Says limbo: Hi Sarisin, you don't seem to be the only one on a diet. Samak is with you. You 2 guys must be the fat overweight farang guys everybody on this board refers to, isn't it? I don't think you would say this if you met me. I am 6 foot 1 inch and 190 lbs (sorry for not going metric on this ). I had put on a few lbs while on my extended vacation, but that and more is gone as a result of my low carb diet and frequent exercise. Another benefit has been that I just don't seem to crave sweets like I used to - except for sweet Thai puying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falang Posted June 7, 2003 Report Share Posted June 7, 2003 I am a fan of khao niaw mamuang to, when I am in Thailand I like to eat a good khao lam, kluay buat chi, miang khum that I taste for the first time on my last trip thank's to Rovineye recommandation, khanom krock (spelling), Thai coconut jelly. Miang khum is also serve has a appetizer but it's sweet. A other thing I very like in the south but it's not sweet is yum met mamuang himaphan, spicy fried cashew nuts.

Brink15 Posted June 7, 2003 Report Share Posted June 7, 2003 yum met mamuang himaphan Oh, I'd forgotten about that one. Excellent dish. There used to be a restaurant on the bend of the road near Rawai Beach in Phuket that served a great one. Hmmm, I'm going to have to find a recipe. Their's had cashews, mango, fried squid, and lots of chilies. And lime of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
check_bin_krap Posted June 7, 2003 Report Share Posted June 7, 2003 "In Thailand it is hard to beat mango and sticky rice, but I also like "rot chong", the green worm like stuff which is served in a sweet, coconut based milk." ........................................................... Ex does a wee bit of catering in my country, and spends a lot of time making "rot chong". Its a fav among the Thais who freeze here in cold Norway! Cheers!
