I'll have a look next time I'm there, usually shop at Top or Carrefour but have heard good reports of Rimping. Are the kippers frozen? You know what you can do with your black puddings though, first tried them in Thurso, what a thing to do to an unsuspecting Aussie tourist.

I'll pack a fridgey bag with frozen bottles for the 180km back to the village. Like the idea of the Cumberland sausage, tried it in Windsor once, got chatting to one of the guards at the castle and he sent me to the pub where the staff go for lunch, good grub at a good price.

Ulysses G. Posted May 4, 2007 Share Posted May 4, 2007 I'm American and know nothing about Black Puddings other than Yorkies are the only ones that I've liked that I've tried. The Laughing Leprechan Irish Pub in Chiang Mai carries them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ulysses G. Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 I think of them as being like sardines. Am I wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sceadugenga Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 It's smoked herring General, the taste is magnificent but they are full of fine bones. The smell of them cooking can make non-affectionados change cities. Usually the ones that are exported have been filleted and vacuum sealed.

Ulysses G. Posted May 18, 2007 Share Posted May 18, 2007 Thanks. They sound good to me. I just found out recently that sardines means, "little fish", and can be many types including mackeral and herring. I'm not crazy about sardines - kippers sound better - but I want that Omega 3 oil, and I don't like taking suppliments that are 100% fat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Discovered them earlier this month. Chantal , I'm a yank but still really enjoy kippers.Was totally unaware that we can get them in Thailand. I'm to the west near puttamonton sai song and ring rd.
