Western Food you miss in Thailand

[SoiBiker]

You can't have tried much Dutch cheese if you think it has no taste. The aged stuff for example has quite a kick to it. Or the stuff with cumin seeds in it.

[dutchisaan]

Dutch cheese tastes like margarine......

O..m..g..

What kind of dutch cheese you eat?

Thai Dutch cheese?

For a country that puts salad cream on fries says a lot about taste buds...

Me, half a century of trying all sorts of cheese...Dutch stuff has no flavour at all. Margarine.....

Man get your facts before you post!

In Holland we put mayonaise on fries, not salad cream! And if you say that the Dutch cheese has no flavor, than maby you have to buy some real Dutch cheese.

But than what do I expect from somebody that eat there fries with ketchup?

Have a nice day.

I'm from the UK, and I put mayonnaise on my chips.

[fang37]

Mayo on your chips.

12 months in prison for that offence.

First of all it's French fries not chips. The world doesn't end at the UK. Second, vinegar on 'chips' sounds good to you right? I don't try to start a war here but please don't act that the UK is the know all end all about food or anything in particular.

Why don't we call them Pommes Frites then? Or Frieten?

The world doesn't end at the USA, either.

[fang37]

CHIPS!

Not that Macca stuff.

Vinegar - # 1

And yet in the USA when the "french fries" are put on a plate next to a piece of fish it is then a dish called fish and chips.

You are right soibiker, maybe I should ease up on the word for frieten, although I say patat

@ don mega. That's for marketing purpose offcourse. Does fish and French fries sound appealing to you? Let's call a quarter pounder a Royale with cheese!

Opies pickled walnuts.

I miss a really good Turkish kebab.

[Xriz]

SoiBiker,so you are from the UK but you live in Amsterdam now?

Your taste in food really does have a Dutch twist to it.

No, I live in Bangkok. But I've spent a lot of time in Amsterdam, and various other parts of the Netherlands. One of the few things I miss about Europe!

[Xriz]

We should have lunch in the green parrot once. They have pretty good bitterballen

[NiwPix]

Oh yes...a good kebab. Just what I mentioned in post #17

[SiSePuede419]

Sablefish, also known as "Black Cod" because of its White flesh.

But also has omega 3 fatty acids, similar to wild salmon

The goose fat is a really good choice OP....duck and goose fat are really difficult to find in Thailand for some reason.

i bought 5kg (500Bht KG) of rendered duck fat at a duck factory in Bang Phli, let me know if you would like the details

As a French guy, I miss only one thing : cheese ; I know I can buy some in Makro , but I don't accept to pay 500 bahts or more for a litte piece of cheese

by chance, there is a BIC market near my home, and when their products are almost out of date, they sell them with 50 % discount and Casino cheese is

good even if there is not much choice ( 360 sorts of cheese in France ) ; with a warm baguette, it's ok

Unfortunately, soon, no French cheese half price and charcuterie in Big C because Casino will sell Big C . I think no more French food in supermarkets, after Carrefour and Casino

Bacon and egg sandwich on doorsteps .

I don't agree with you at all I reckon Dutch cheese is one of the best cheese in the world

including Swiss, Danish and maybe German and Italian

and what is wrong with mayonnaise on your fries the British and Aussies put on vinegar

my Thai family puts salt on any fruit they eat including sweet strawberries

and no I am not Dutch

You must be on drugs WC.... Gouda , like shoe leather, Edam like plastic !!

Real Brits don't eat fries, we have proper chips and don't put mayonnaise on them. Each to their own, I fully accept that.
