Popular Post darksidedog Posted September 9, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 9, 2018 I am back in England at the moment for my dads 90th birthday. As soon as I walked through the front door and he said what do you want to eat, I instantly thought curry. Within 30 minutes I had a Chicken Tikka Dhansak, Keema rice and Peshwari Naan in front of me, from the local takeaway, being washed down by a couple of cans of Tanglefoot ale. Heavenly! Halfway through I realised that on my last trip I did pretty much the same. Aside from copious amounts of quality ales, I know I am also going to be nailing a really good Chinese at some point, because if Pattaya has one, I don't know of it. My local deli is also going to get seriously raided. It made me wonder what everybody else does when they leave LOS for their home country. What do you guys crave when you get home, that either isn't where you live, or is horribly hard to find? 9 3 1 Link to comment

Spidey Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 As soon as I get off the train (200 yards from my apartment) I nip into the bakery opposite and buy a large bacon and mushroom bap. Later, I visit the supermarket and stock up on Warburtons crumpets, Lurpak salted butter and decent ground coffee for breakfast. Supper is fish (large haddock), chips and curry sauce. Oh and a bottle of dandok (dandelion and burdock) to wash it down. Always have a Char Siu Chow Mien at least once on my visit. 1 1 1 Link to comment

Popular Post ChiangMaiLightning2143 Posted September 9, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 9, 2018 I am home. The first thing I eat when arriving home Is PaTong Go fried by the local shop before the sun comes up. If I need more breakfast i like kapao gai, or maybe kuaytiaw. Then I have Kao Soi or Kao man Gai for lunch (with pineapple shake). 3 Link to comment

Popular Post Jingthing Posted September 9, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted September 9, 2018 Grits, corn dogs, burgers, key lime pie? Yes I would go for a burger or two back there but not right off the plane. Also in contention for first American bite is a chile relleno burrito.

Kaoboi Bebobp Posted September 9, 2018 Share Posted September 9, 2018 (edited) It's the REAL beer available everywhere in Canada and cheap compared to Thailand. But for food sakes, it's the fresh, flavourful standard breakfast with bacon (Brits call it streaky bacon), large eggs over easy (almost impossible in Thailand), fried potatoes with onions and bell peppers (Brits = capsicum), deliciously fresh beefsteak tomatoes, and whole wheat or multi-grain toast and rich fruit jam.
