ramrod711 Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 I stopped at Pun Pun to see John and I am happy to report that he is in good spirits and his operation in no way hampered his conversational skills. While I was there, ok the main reason I was there was for the chicken fried steak. As an old retired over the road trucker I require fried meat once in a while. It was very good, white gravy and all. I have seen other best pizza, burger etc threads but never chicken fried steak, does anyone else know of a source? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds good, but chicken fried steak is beef, tenderized, battered, breaded, fried and smothered in milk gravy. Traditionally in America it would be served with biscuits, mashed potatoes and in the south, grits. Every truck stop has it on the menu. It's been a long time since I had it, and to tell the truth it's too much food for me anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eyecatcher Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 A chicken fried steak made from beef? I would have been sadly dissappointed for simply being ignorant. The wife would be disappointed because she doesnt touch beef. Think I will cook myself a nice sirloin now, I have a chicken breast in the fridge.

Think I will cook myself a nice sirloin now, I have a chicken breast in the fridge. I understand the confusion, I think it's called chicken fried because the preparation is the same, breading and frying. I like it and believe me it's popular in the U.S.. Having said that you have to be a carnivore to order it. On the bright side, if my wife and went to Pun Pun I could satisfy my craving and my wife could order vegetarian, Thai or Shan dishes. I only brought up the subject because there are times that I crave western food even though my wife is an excellent cook. P.S. where do you buy your sirloin?

Gonzo the Face Posted October 22, 2018 Share Posted October 22, 2018 Thanks gang for re...clearing the chicken or beef discussion. Since Ramrod started this topic a few days ago I have just a few minutes ago had the third person come in thinking it was a chicken dinner. Its always that way when this named dinner comes into the discussion . But if you're not a totally committed veggo, come in and try it. For me its part of my youth food. As Gene Autry used to say " Try it. you'll like it" ( How many of you remember that line by him, years and years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could be wrong, but I think that long, long ago on US Tv, the Gene Autry cowboy program , was sponsored by Wrigleys spearmint chewing gum, to which Gene Autry said .... try it,... you'll like it.

After he tasted it the elder brothers said "Mikey likes it". Seems like a long time ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose there wouldn't be confusion if the restaurant offered a fried chicken steak as well. In some restaurants the battered and breaded beef steak is referred to as country fried, not sure if that would clarify the issue though. The only thing I can tell you for sure is that it's tasty and usually, as in this case, very filling. The first time I went to the Pun Pun I expected it to be a smaller portion than in American truck stops so I ordered apple pie for dessert. Not only was the meal too large but I had to take the pie home. I'm not a small guy either, 6'2" and 226 lbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo the Face Posted October 29, 2018 Share Posted October 29, 2018 Had a couple of chicken fried steak lovers in yesterday who I think dropped a pair of glasses in my parking area. Regular glasses with black bold frames. They may just think they lost them someplace. Forgive me, but its true what they say about old age and ones memory. Knowing what they say about memory, I wrote down the Thai Visa name, but true to form..... I forgot where I put the paper. If you were here, had chicken Fried steak, and are missing your glasses, I have them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
