    I've just completed some more extensive shortbread testing (at least 5 quality varieties of shortbread fingers at Central Chitlom) and here are my results:

    first prize: Waitrose shortbread fingers (99 baht)
    second price: Walkers handmade shortbread fingers (165 baht)
    third prize Marks & Spencers shortbread fingers (115 baht).




    Just received a box of 240 Yorkshire teabags, going very nicely with the biscuits...



    carry on...

    The Tim Tams that you buy in Asia are made in Indonesia...

    Not sure if the ones bought in Oz also come from Indo.

    that didn't take long; a nice cup of Yorkshire and a selection of 3 biscuit types: Waitrose shortbread fingers, Dusit Gourmet jammy dodgers and Dusit Gourmet choc chip shortbread... I am getting fatter, that's a certainty.

    Marks and Spencers had Walnut Whips and Bourbon biscuits last month.

    I think they are all gone now though.

    just partook in the dunking of 2 custard cream biscuits adorned with the traditional swirly pattern top-
    a structure which no doubt adds to the integral strength , thus allowing a physics defying extra long dunk , and allowing an insane absorption coefficient .

    both ,dunked , successfully
    and no embarrassing sludge in the cup.


    a fig roll would be nice too


    and i forgot to eat a gingerbread man this winter
    not too keen on them
    but traditions are traditions

    Tops/Central carry Waitrose products; Central Chitlom has loads of Waitrose stuff where as Tops in Central Rama 2 has only a few bits n pieces; Silom Central has a good M&S section - picked up some shorts today; 3 for 1990 baht; nice quality...

    I understand that Custard Creams are very popular with the gay community. Personally I don't like them.

    Whilst I admit that a custard cream does sound like a gay biscuit, it is actually very nice.

    Now, it's nice to see that a nice English company (I think???);Waitrose, do a better shortbread biscuit than the Scottish companies...

    Stolen from: Belmsford > Gay Biscuits

    the "Mikado" has to be the gayest biscuit I ever did see.


    What you've got there is two lines of tiny balls of white marshmallow with pink dessicated coconut on them with a line of jam down the middle, also with pink dessicated coconut on. And that, my friends, is a gay biscuit.

    The Midget outdid them on her first attempt, so it can't be that hard.

    Yes. I saw them and quite a few others at Central Chitlom; really a biscuit lovers wet dream it is... loads and loads of the good stuff, split in 3 or 4 different sections, so you'll need to have a good walk around...

    I'm just having a cup of tea with some Butterfingers shortbread with macadamia nuts that I bought from from Tops at 115 baht - an Aussie shortbread biscuit, whatever next... Quite nice though; gets into my top three along with the Waitrose shortbread fingers (haven't seen any on sale for 6 months) and the classic, easy to obtain but still excellent Walkers shortbread fingers.

    What's all that about, I've never seen them before; look like they'd go perfectly with a cup of PG Tips!
