passingthru69 Posted January 20, 2009 Report Share Posted January 20, 2009 My wife used to work as a cook in Thailand before I met her. She has made some american food. Well I bring her to the states. She eats some American food. Her thing is not being sure if she likes it or not. She likes the buffets. She says I can see food and if looks ok I will try it. She has tried some Mexican food. Not to happy with it. She does'nt eat beef. She likes some fish dishes here in the states. Will pick the breading off a lot of it. Given a choice of Thai or American food. Well the Thai. food wins out. With us traveling all the time it is hard for her to cook. There are times we go to the market and she will cook Thai. food.

Khun_Kong Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 ... some weeks it is 1-2 times when she 'needs' rice ... "needs" rice = Belgian euphemism for sex. How's it going, BB. I miss your chocolates (and that's NOT a euphemism, wise-asses). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why? The Thai restaurants make the food for farangs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carew66 Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 Doesn't eat beef. Cannot see the point of potatoes (which I love). Pours salt over anything that I cook befoe even tasting it. Looks longingly at the fish tank wondering no doubt whether I'll miss one or two of 'em... Thinks balsamic vinegar is farang nam pla. Always - fucking always - leaves me to wash up the rice cooker. We get by. Sometimes I just throw up my hands and say, "Fuck it. Phone KFC tonight, but make sure to order some original for me, okay? Okay?" Nah... Never 'original'. Always that dried up chili basted rat, now with a cheesy crust I note. Bah! Colonel fucking Ho Chi Minh Sanders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passingthru69 Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 The old I need rice bit. Yep I hear that also. 555 We have a rice cooker in the truck. Some times a small dust collecter. She does use it and she cleans it out when done. funny thing is I think she remembers about where every chinesse buffett is all over the U.S. that we have been too. Yes the Thai. food here in the states is really toned down. We funny thing is we even found the chinnesse thai restaraunts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carew66 Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 Good Lord! I've just posted about Chinese 'Thai' restaurants on another thread. Bloody awful the ones I've been to in the UK. They charge top dollar though. Some pub/restaurant in the Forest of Bowland, Lancashire. 2 years ago. No fish sauce! What the fuck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
passingthru69 Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 What was funny in Nov. we were in Louisana. Just off I10 and we found a Thai. place in the town were we at. So off we go. Hard time finding. We walk in and the asian lady kinda goes to the back. As we were looking for a table I hear her tell the other waitress, please wait on them as they will know I'm Not Thai. I heard it but my wife did'nt. Well I allways get nervous when I see white people working in an asian place.. We order, food not that good. Ok off day. We go again the next night,I know sucker.55 We see asian lady. I tell my wife please speak to her in thai. My wife looks at her and in english says you're not Thai. are you? She says no I'm not. Then here's the good part. She says why do you try and make Thai food? I about crapped. Lady says my friend in back is Thai. and he does the cooking beaming like a proud boss. My wife says well he's a bad Thai. cook. Well so much for dinner here I think. Lady said well please try again and he will make true Thai for you. Yea plus the spit and floor droppings I'm thinking to myself. Food was just as bad. Man brings food out himself. Beaming like a proud dad presenting his family. We eat and they ask. Do you like. My wife's answer was check please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drogon Posted January 21, 2009 Report Share Posted January 21, 2009 Missus loves foreign food. - She loves pastas and tries to go eat as much as possible to Italian restaurants and she is lucky to have a few friends loving real Italian food too. (I helped her discovering ink pastas though) She is now able to cook quite a few Italian dishes. - She loves Japanese food, both the fuji fast food version and the more traditional Japanese restaurants. - She likes vietnamese and Chinese too - She loves seafood but the PIER 59 version -> foreign fishes prepared by western cooks. She is eager to try other foreign food... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
