We need a new term for the hot mess that is Pee-OTUS; dumpster fire, train-wreck just don't seem sufficient?

 

Or maybe that new term will just be a simple "Trump". As in Johnny Manziel has done a total Trump.

Chili is the US term for the UK (who speak Spanish after all) Chili con carne? lol Considering we invented the dish that is funny. Chili is understood to have meat in it unless it only has beans. Yes, Tex Mex places call it Chili con carne so it sounds more authentic. 

 

Chili con carne FWIW is the designated official dish of the state of Texas as designated by the House Concurrent Resolution Number 18 of the 65th Texas Legislature during its regular session in 1977.

 

Whatever it is called it has nothing to do with the UK where people usually serve it with rice. Sorry for being pedantic but it is in response to a post that assumes wrongfully that chili has anything to do with the UK. When served atop rice it is called taco rice in Japan from the days when the US service men introduced it to Okinawa. To this day it remains a specialty dish that Okinawa is famous for.

 

Either way it is quite tasty and a popular thing to do with chili (con carne) is to put it over Fritos chips (this is known is a Frito pie or in the UK as a pie with Fritos containing chili con carne) or any other tortilla chip. In the midwest we serve it in a bowl and melt cheese over it, put a dollop of sour cream on it and crush up saltine crackers on it. The saltines get stuck to the sour cream and add a nice crunchy texture to the sour cream.

 

Sorry I can not sit here and abide being lectured about chili by a brit. :)

Thanks for the clarification. I'm from the U.K. and my Texan buddies claim that my Chilli (Con Carne or whatever) rates up with some of the best that Texas can offer.

Sorry to be pedantic but it's Brit not brit, I take you're a Yank not a yank.  

Happy new year to all you Brits, Yanks and others where ever you're from

Looks delicious. Any teaching advice.

Tutsi, please don't post any photos of your 'special portfolio' until after the New Year.

And yes Yolida makes a good yoghurt starter.

Have a great New Year everyone, take care and be safe.

Well done on the temporary opening.

One small request though, could you please erect a sign (Eng/Thai if possible) explaining the entrance to the by-pass road? 

Happy New Year to everyone. Have a safe one

i am sure Trans had nothing to do with any fake votes and neither have i!

In our household I usually find it easier to take the blame for every thing, it simply saves time cos its always the farangs fault anyway.

With this in mind i'll admit that I was responsible for every one of the fake votes (and not FaceBook this time).

If I get banned, so be it so I'll wish you all the very best for 2017 while I can. Keep 'em coming Naam, you too Trans.
