Thai Ice Cream On Hotdog Bun

[Aswin]

Have you tried it ? Its good.

My favourite flavor is coconut ice cream, ingredients include Millet, corn, basil seeds, red beans, black beans boiled with syrup, and laht chong, a bright green noodle flavoured and coloured with pandanus leaves.

And since lactose doesn't occur in coconut milk, large quantities of coconut-based ice cream can be consumed without the irritating side effects produced by dairy ice cream.

This one is mango-coconut ice cream with sweet sticky rice on a bun. yum, yum...

ahh it's disgusting, nothing worse than soggy bread, and if it's not soggy then it aint bread, a big thumbs down from me, it even looks wrong...

I've got a great idea, lets stick some pad thai in a bowl of strawberries

I hope you haven't just got home after a night out and got stuck into the ice cream on soggy bread! (where's the vomiting emoticon??)

If you think deep fried Mars bars in the UK is disgusting then try deep fried ice cream in Thailand.

How in the world do they manage to deep fry it and not melt the ice cream is beyond me.

If it's true then methinks 'Chemi'..

If 'bread'(it's not ready bread, it's something sinister masquerading as bread) wasn't involved or mentioned then I would think you're suggesting quite an elegant desert but unfortunatley 'bread'(or should I say 'hot dog bun') is involved so like I said before, a big thumbs down, especially as I've tasted some very nice deserts in my life and ice cream in a crappy hot dog bun doesn't do it, quite frankly.

(enter vomiting emoticon here)

OK, you don't like it. I got it already.

diferent strokes for different folks...

don't knock the bun and the rice! Bun == soft waffle, and the rice, well, ever have really good rice pudding? Same deal!

earlier i had a bite of chocolate and then ate some somtam... it was surprisingly good together! never would have guessed.

[Shotime]

I think I had one, too. It tasted more like a light cake than bread. They tasted good together. Sort of like birthday cake and ice cream. I ate the whole thing.

All that coconut milk is very fattening (that's if you care) another unusual thing worth trying is pepper on Ice Cream and lots of it

The rice looks like maggots crawling on the thing

I heard an interview recently with a former cop who could not eat white rice because it reminded her of maggots on a rotting corpse.

Durian ice cream is wonderful...

For people who cannot stand the fruit "itself";

I did try it frozen. In Ice cream. Initial split-second tease of ice cream, then reverted back to reality with the same disgusting taste, and after taste - of that evil creation known as durian.

Durian is completely evil. Each to their own etc - but the people that I meet who tell me to 'try it again, you obviously had a bad one before - it is wonderful' should be committed. End of story.

The ice cream thingy in a bun by the OP looks worth a try though.....

That looks really really rank! I love Thai food, but some of their desserts, esp the Western influenced ones, are weird beyond belief!

I took a coupon for KFC corn sundae to my Thai school in London recently.. The teachers held it up and said "aroi mai?" the whole class looked repelled and shook their heads.

I bought some durian in London recently and froze it over the weekend before taking it to work on Monday.. It was in a sealed platic box wrapped in 3 carrier bags and still stank the office out! Had to dispose of it on a floor where no one knew me!

What does durian smell like?

Hard to describe and it varies depending on the level of ripeness/putrifaction.

When it's fresh, it's a bit like that strong smell you sometimes get in hairdressing salons. When it's off, its a bit like marsh gas mixed with pickled onions.

You really need to experience it. It's unlike anything else. We sometimes eat blue cheese in the office which is maybe 1% as offensive as the durian.

[SeaVisionBurma]

You're being far too kind in describing the smell.

There's a long list of rank, putrid, horrifying smells that I can think of - and I would still prefer any of them to the slightest waft of evil durian.......

I'm never ever surprised to check into a local hotel anywhere throughout Asia, and see a sign hanging up behind the reception desk with Durian & a big red cross through it.... No wonder hotels ban it.

When I was in Singapore I saw no durians signs in the tube stations and I thought it was some kind of weapon LOL...

Durian is delicious. It's like ice cream in fruit form. So is Thai ice cream, but I prefer to eat it with just the sticky rice, and maybe some pineapple, no hot dog buns please.
