Most is without taste and flavour. The rest is disgusting for me. ???? Can't beat a well made Fish and Chips, a Sunday Roast or a Shepherd's Pie. I think even the French do something similar called Hachis Parmentier d'Agneau. Smoked Haddock Chowder on a cold day. Don't know where you are from, but every country has some foods that others won't like. Each to their own. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have tried Fish and Chips several times here in Thailand, it never tastes the same as in the UK and to me is always disappointing. Trips down memory lane, My favourite meal as a kid was my mums rabbit stew with dumplings, pearl barley, spuds n carrots. There was no 'fussy' eating, as kids, food was put in front of us and we gobbled it down whole heartily. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was a place that served good fish and chips (not British fish species) in the Kiwi Pub & Grill in a small soi off Sukhumvit Soi 8. The restaurant was called Snapper or New Zealand Snapper and has now moved to Sathorn I believe. https://bk.asia-city.com/restaurants/bangkok-restaurant-reviews/kai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What? .... Check your facts my friend. I'm sorry you had a bad experience but I can guarantee most Brits don't boil their bacon.

Back bacon should be cooked slowly to keep the texture. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
