Yes I think you are trying to say Michelin doesn't mean anything.  I guess you are worthy of a gold medal of missing your own point.

You don't seem to have a clue as to why "trump" is so massively UNPOPULAR. In the USA, and in almost every country on the planet.

Don't like trump today 56%  is that massive? I think well established Trump on Epstein's plane at least once and Clinton 27 times.  I don't think facts are a conspiracy.  Both Trump and Clinton palls of Epstein.

Though, to be honest, I’m all for more draconian measures and would applaud measures to ban gun ownership. 

OK by me.  You'll never get a lazy Senator of House member to come back from vacation to save lives.  Do a gun crime put them in jail for life.

Pass the current democrat gun legislation proposals for a start. 

I guess you don't know what they are.  Not every thing marked democrat has a even a slim chance doing anything.  Democrats want to cut off a source of Republican funding.  Criminals are the only ones buying those kind of guns and they don't buy guns legitimately.  First question is asking who is buying those and who are they killing in America.  Get off the political ideas and consider something that works.  Call the congress bask from their long vacation and research something that might work. Police cars stop anyone they think might be considering a crime.  That will get a million guns off the street in a year.  Think that is discrimination?   What a shock.  Lemme tell ya.  Gramps in the Upper Peninsula is not shooting people or robbing banks.

i have eaten at so called michelin starred places like . tim wan ho in bangkok and their food and dim sum they are famous for was not as good as hong kong dim sum in bkk chinatown and every dim sum place in nyc chinatown was better also. so the non michelin star places were better and cost a lot less. many non michelin star place have great food. in france and italy  i found great food at non michelin places. i'm sure lots of restaurants are worthy of a star but simply dont care nor do their patrons.

 

speaking about slum food have had great mexican food in mole sauce in mexico and in san diego. history of mole is based upon people being too poor to eat more expensive food so they developed mole.  jerk chicken, also originating from slums in jamaica is a great dish.

 

no doubt a star or more may mean something but tons of restaurants have great food and have no affiliation with michelin.

Paris chef Alain Senderens also gave up his stars that year, opting to close and revamp the three-star Lucas Carton. “I feel like having fun,” Senderens told the New York Times. “I don’t want to feed my ego anymore. I am too old for that. I can do beautiful cuisine without all the tra-la-la and chichi, and put the money into what’s on the plate.”  https://www.eater.com/2017/9/21/16345242/chefs-give-back-michelin-stars

Go argue Michelin doesn't  mean anything. You will of course lose.  Same as an Olympic medal means nothing.

although i know gaggan and appreciate them it is not for everybody. taste varies and just because someone does not know about or care about a place like that doesnt mean they dont have taste.  they have their own preferences.

What does Michelin represent and how much is a star worth.  Sure it means they don't have taste in the world of food or there would not be a Michelin guide.  I'm sure there is also a Joe's slum food guide too.

I’ve never seen a girl bouncing, well........

I met her while she was boxing in Patpong.  I was in the bar to buy a 45.  Noticed she didn't seem to feel pain.  I gave her manager 1000 baht for an introduction.  I guess you have not been in Thailand long but it was a wild place 20 years ago.  That is one reason why a few people don't come back.  For me it was my wild years gave way to my calm old man years.

Yes, if by "the American people" you mean "trump" the toxic narcissist president, you're spot on. 

I think Trump is a liar and should be impeached.  Clinton already was.

But what did my comment have to do with tax and your choice of Chilean or Australian wines? Absolutely nothing. The wines were only used as an analogy of the cheeses available at Siambury's, but you'd need to read all the comments to follow that.

Why?  You were talking about wine and we are in Thailand and I commented it would be more appropriate to comment about wines From Australia and Chili.   Get over your dislike of me.

Alright. Compare a nice Bordeaux and a box of Spanish wine. Both are made from grapes but the taste is very different.

But they are still both "proper" wines.

So I guess it is except if I post it.

I think the tax is much greater or Spanish or French wins so I drink Australian or Chile and never the fruit stuff except to cook and then it's not bad for Mexican food with beans and lots of peppers.

I got in an argument with a fellow here about Parmesan cheese.  He was going on and on about Parmigiano-Reggiano Since I was at Makro I tried some.  My gosh was he right and I was wrong. Now I couldn't live without it. I was suprised they had it at Makro.  I tried to apologize to the guy but he was gone.   

Makro for Parmesan Reggiano.  Foodland for soft cheese and everyday.  Cheap everyday Tops.

Found buying the Gillette blades too expensive so converted to the Feather double edge blades, 650 baht for 100. Also Barbasol shaving cream/foam and a good quality adj razor.

Lasts for years.

Edit: From Lazada.

 

 

Feather are twice as good as Gillette.  

I don't have any heartburn till I take cipro or Urief'4.  No pills no heartburn.  I would assume that means the pills cause cause the heartburn.  I also have very dry mouth after I take the pills.  

I bought a stainless steel wine pump to use on my wine instead of freezing it for cooking.

Why not.  You obviously know nothing about the UK becoming 3rd work.

Try google,  Uk becoming 3rd world country.  I'm not sorry for you as this was obvious 3 years ago.  

Didn't think you would be able to google.  So, here is what you get.

https://www.quora.com/Will-Britain-become-a-Third-World-Country

Exactly yes it will. I’ll tell you exactly how.

first of all England has a problem getting a grip with its borders. So many illegal immigrants are crossing through with very little police to deal with the situation. In fact, I asked the police to do a well being check on my son and it took 3 whole days to get a response from them. Their answer was they didn’t deem child protection to be a priority. It’s now been 2 whole weeks I haven’t seen my son. The politicians have withdrawn so much welfare here that they won’t even pay people to clean up on its streets. There is trash on every 4 corners of England. Canada is way cleaner than England. By a long shot. There are a lot of homeless in England being housed in shared accomodations and the rent to stay in a shelter is high. In Canada you could be homeless find somewhere to stay and get welfare the next day. And sort your housing out in a fair amount of time. What you have in England is junkies starving cause they can’t afford to buy food cause they have to pay rent in which they don’t. So homelessness is a epidemic in England which they can’t control. Next is the welfare system. Omg bro you don’t even want to know about the welfare system. Everything is automated. You will have run around 1000 times before you actually get accepted for welfare. And when you do you got a neighborhood office that has workers that literally sit there and chat away the day when there are line ups of people waiting to be served. They get all up in your business instead of actually doing work. Basically England is a set of run arounds and automated telephone numbers. Bro they can’t even pay people to sit on the phone to accept new claimnents. Honestly England has always been a third world country. They don’t have a electricity support program to help poor people pay for electricity. So some families actually live with no electrics in their home. The buses cut off at 12am. If your still in the town center your gonna have to hail a cab or walk home. The whole of England stops at 12 practically. Which is a shame cause there are shops that are open 24 hour but they are way out within walking distance. Their cars are limited to a certain amount of horsepower. Minimum wage is still what it was 10 years ago! Bro people in Canada at getting 14 and hour why is miminum wage still at 8 pounds? Ok I think I had enough here. England is third world. They have so much to learn from Canada. And it starts with the politicians in England. Greedy bunch of white collar crooks.

You got that right.  In fact, it's a problem in small farming villages.  Young people go right into locow whiskey (rotgut)--since they have no other low-cost alcohol available.

My wife'a mother makes Whiskey She imports her the flavorings Jack Danial and Johnnie Walker.   Been doing it for 50 years.  Not bad.

I think you should add something about the guy being stripped as regards mentality.  There is a limit on Mentally challenged folks.
