Thread: Lunch ... the second course

You'll be getting some pie on Sukhumvit next week, I'm sure.

^ Yes, you're right mate.

Villa usually have some Yorkies pork pies and if I'm lucky I'll get a pasty as well.

It'll be good to get back to Thailand!

I don't think he meant the ones from Villa…

^ And I believe Yorkies has closed and the Hairy Pie Bar is no more.

Anyway travel safe Mendy.

Maybe cream pie…

Few things better than guacamole/palta . . .



Went out for a quick lunch yesterday, a French Bistro where they serve excellent crêpe. Nice, almost bitter, cheese . . .

Looks interesting, never heard of that before.

Actually, no. They are known as either crêpe or galletes . . . Why do you try to sound like something you're not? Like . . . smart or worldly . . .

They use buckwheat batter, which gives it an even better favour and consistency.

Alright. Now you have absolutely lost the plot.

You are currently in Bristol, pretty much a cultural home of the f*cking pasty, where you can buy them fresh, toasty hot from a number of stalls, kiosks and shops - and you are thinking of picking up pasties in f*cking Bangkok????????

Get a grip man.

He spelled crabs wrong.

^ I'm not big into seafood mate.

My first lunch in Bangkok will in fact be a larb moo. That is what I really miss.

Here's a little bit of food that I whipped up earlier before placing into containers and bags to make it look like I'd just opened my laptop and ordered a take away.

sorry to inform they are known a Breton galletes and they first originated from Brittany. hence Breton

^^ Looks great... why don't you give the recipe and cooking methods you used?

Do you know what kind of rice that is? My mum has just given me a bag of 'Pudding Rice' to take back home to use for making rice pudding in Korat and it's short-grained like in your pic. I don't know if you can use the usual Thai rice for puddings?

Mendip, just use the Jasmine rice.

It's the same as sticky rice or glutinous rice as it says on the label.

I don't know for a fact that it is the same thing, but I have made acceptable rice pudding using local sticky rice.

You cannot seriously be thinking of using up your Thatchers luggage allowance by bringing rice to Thailand?

That was my first thought.
