Kanada Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 I’d say the OP on this post is just having us on…..no one is that simple or helpless!? And no one eats Mall food unless as a last resort???? I have four Sons and they all learned to cook, wash clothes and iron pre teens or at least early teens. Just part of what you need to know to survive uni. and early manhood! None of them (me included) are great cooks but we can all cook basic meals…roast a chicken and make a salad or even a decent casserole! Mushroom soup on toast Beans on toast Asian ramen salad any one is less than five minutes prep time and not too bad! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sucit Posted July 20, 2021 Share Posted July 20, 2021 One of the things I am constantly amazed by, is we are in the middle of this 28 days later type crisis, right. A pandemic. Don’t leave home. Wear a mask. Don’t touch anything. Did you just take off your mask to scratch your face? How dare you. But, if you look around, children are relaxed and playing. Grocery stores are all stocked and customers are orderly (and no, that’s not because humans always behave well during crisis). In fact, nobody looks too worried at all. People, especially children, understand intuitively what they are being told on the news, and what they see in real life are not the same. Not even close. And they act accordingly. I don’t see anyone afraid of anything on the streets. Quite the contrary actually. They tell us it’s 28 days later, but it is really something more like When Harry Met Sally. And people obviously know it. The ones who buy into it all shut themselves inside, as they should. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Asquith Production Posted July 21, 2021 Share Posted July 21, 2021 Just use common sense and go to the supermarket. Wear 1 or even 2 masks, wear gloves to avoid touching anything and try not getting to close to anybody and you will be fine. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’re eating street food it’s cheaper to eat out than buy groceries and cook for yourself! Theres 3 or 4 different types of Thai cooking and the Northern Thais use raw blood in their soups etc. for taste… I’m never sure which ones are Northern Thais unless my wife is there so I’ve probably eaten my share but not searching it out????

Went to my local Gourmet Market in a shopping mall this morning. Everything in the mall was shut, apart from the supermarket and two pharmacies. The stalls that restaurants previously had set up for takeaway have gone. It wasn't even possible to withdraw money from an ATM blocked off. None of the restaurants in the mall usually listed in Food Panda and Grab is there today. To add insult to injury, only a fraction of the usual range of ready meals was available.

I actually saw similar in my area in Bangkok this morning, a lot of the food outlets and restaurants that were still open for takeaway last week are now mostly shut, even the macdonalds was in darkness. And this was on the street not in the shopping mall. Edited July 21, 2021 by Whale Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cheap places have a very quick turnaround of ingredients whereas the more expensive restaurants may store or refrigerate stuff they don't sell for who knows how long. Me too. Never say never though! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
