LomSak27 Posted June 15, 2019 Share Posted June 15, 2019 Actually I like herring, wonder if the Dutch herring is different from the Norwegian that we have here. However as I will just be getting back, likely jet lagged sleeping. Nice to see its at the Hollandi Montri also. Sounds like a good time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trujillo Posted June 22, 2019 Share Posted June 22, 2019 So the 7th Annual New Dutch Herring Party was quite underwhelming. I was expecting some sort of gourmet affair, as I had only had the herring from the jars. I thought there would be condiments such as pickled onions and perhaps pickled garlic to go along and at least some fresh dill and mustard. Sour cream? Chives? Boiled eggs or potato? Unfortunately, no. So there was only the fish, some unappetizingly tasteless white bun, slightly sweet; a bucket of diced raw onions and a bucket of diced dill pickles. So this was the 150 baht deal: Some folks were having just the fish (which was tasty, sure) and eating that Shamu style. I don't want to be a stick-in-the-mud, but after seven years, I'd have thought there would be more to this. Something like a buffet condiments area where you can go after you purchase your fish. As it was, the fish was nice but the whole thing was like a quickly tossed together grade school lunch box. I'm sure I'm going to be pilloried for this, but if this is the deal, then I'm sort of at a loss. I guess I've been watching too much MasterChef lately. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck for us,the Dutch people liked it very much.This is the same "tradition"for may be 100 years. We, The Dutch, do not tell you how to drink your tea,so do not tell us how we should eat our herring,please !!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol you retard, the entire point is to eat the Dutch herring without any bun at all, it is about the yearly taste of the herring it self, like wine tasting, but you are allowed to eat it as shown in the picture for a bit more filling / everything is how it should be. Sour cream and Mustard? You are supposed to taste the fish, not a sauce, let me guess? You are American or something close to as Fked? You clearly missed the entire point, I will not even spend more time on writing lol. If any mustard it will be with bitter balls. Also to get that in Thailand for only 150B is a very very good deal.

tabarin Posted June 24, 2019 Share Posted June 24, 2019 (edited) I just keep laughing thinking someone attended this 7 times in a row without knowing what it is about lol: Edited June 24, 2019 by tabarin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trujillo Posted June 25, 2019 Share Posted June 25, 2019 Who attended this for seven years in a row, other than the owner? The bread was what was offered. And yes, I am not from the Netherlands. As I said in my post, I had only had pickled herring from a jar (which I like very much). If the idea was to only eat the fish itself without any condiments or bread, then why supply bread and onions and pickles? I saw Dutch people there eating the herring with the bread. Are they also retards? According to tabarin, yes. I was also hoping that there would be some herring for sale to take home for later consumption. But that was not offered either. Look, all I am saying is that as a newbie, I thought there would be more to it. What would be the downside to offering condiments other than pickles and onions? Those who didn't want to experiment don't need to use them. And by the way, the Thai "partners" that were there -- some with that "another bizarre farang thing" look on their faces -- would probably have more enjoyed the fish in another style. Yes, I understand tradition and I laud the owner for holding his event, but there is nothing wrong with thinking outside the box either. Herring is great tasting and any chef can tell you that heroing that fish in a dish is not only possible, but elevates the fish as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
