OT-Vietnamese food has to be the worst!

[wolfie_cr]

Thai women are among the most beautiful in the world also...

one more example that to each its own, nothing better than a nice tall/blonde/american girl (then again I run into Americans all the time in CR that are looking for Ticas..........wtf.........)

more garbage...uppy:

I take it you have never been to Thailand? :howdy:

For the folks here who don't know jack about other cultures Japanese Hibachi, Chinese takeout, Thai food, whatever--what is served in America is a bastardized western friendly verison of the real thing.

Americans like high fat, high salt, MSG and sugar in everything they slovenly consume. The food companies know this and exploit it to a near criminal degree.

Consequently obesity is fast approaching the number one preventable health care concern in the US. Its projected to overtake smoking within 15 years.

So to the uneducated critics out there my advice is simple: keep scarfing down the mutant burgers and deep fried garbarge they happily serve in McDonalds for a buck bc before long you'll be stricken with obesity, cancer, heart disease, stroke and dozens of other complications in no time flat.

Darwin was right and to paraphrase him: All that is unneccessary and careless eventually strengthens our collective gene pool by eliminating themselves from it.

They're all beautiful.....as is my right hand.

if you have only tried it once, might I suggest trying it a few more times, and different restaurants aswell....

next year in Vegas lets go out for Thai!!! :toast:

there are flavors in Thai food that I do not find in any other cusine and I love it, but like anything, if the restaurant or Chef is shitty, the meal will suck....

I had 'Thai' Food last time I was in Tampa Bay and it was horrible, I can imagine someone hating Thai food if that was their first experience.

SS:

I always like to give a restaurant a second chance if I don't like it the first time. I get surprised sometimes when I go back and try a different dish. Sometimes you can get a bad chef the first time like you said.

As far as eating a big bowl of noodles for lunch, didn't you guys group up eating Campbell's Chicken Noodle Soup for lunch? I liken Pho (pronounced fuh) to chicken noodle soup except that they use rice noodles instead of the other noodles. I like to put in the vegetables and some Sriracha hot sauce and Hoisin brown sauce to spicen it up. If you don't like the soup, Vietnamese restaurants have other good foods there too.

Would love to see the look on Rachael Ray’s face dinning upon some of that cockroach cuisine offered upon the “tasty traveled” streets of Thailand.

This is largely true. It's not impossible to find authentic, though it's probably going to be a hike 99% of the time.

Amen....

I like all kinds of women including Thai women. Their beauty isn't the best part about them though. It's the way they treat their men. They take pleasure in serving their man just like nature intended.

I can no longer eat at Taco Bell or any other Mexican fast food place. Give me a Mexican taqueria any day. They use some of the best spices in their meals and it's not as heavy since they don't use a lot of fat.

Personally, I love Vietnamese food.

:grandmais

 

[GreenDoberman]

One of my favorite restaurants in town is a Vietnamese place called :

Pho Kim Long

(Pho is pronounced Fa, so you figure out the rest. And no it doesn't have a massage parlor attached to it).

QL will attest to the fact Lotus of Siam is one of the better Thai restaurants right here in Vegas. We definitely can book a dinner there next year.

 

[Brock Landers]

Did they have dog or cat on the menu? LOL

I love trying new food and can honestly say this might be the only food I will never eat again. However, I have not tried Indian food but its on the list.

Very funny though! I might be a redneck because I do choose a good burger over most!

You've never had Indian food? This may be my favourite cuisine of the many I've tried.

Chicken tikka masala, beef curry, shrimp curry, butter chicken (not invented in India though), daal, channa....I'm getting hungry just thinking about it.

 

[xpanda]

My favourite local restaurant is Vietnamese. Their spring rolls are BRILLIANT, soups are AMAZING, and everything is else is FANTASTIC.

I can't imagine how boring it would be if we all ate English food ... gawd. Shepherd's pie and mince 'n' totties every day? Blech!

Gimme spices or gimme death!!!

:>Grin>

:lolBIG: Pho Kim Long!

Definitely! The problem with Lotus of Siam is that they are closed for lunch on the weekends so the weekend nights are so crowded. I think next time I go to Vegas I'll just wait in line for 1/2. That's not so bad I guess.

Seriously, think before you type.
