Thai food

Post by Woftam » Mon Mar 30, 2009 12:40 am

Never really been a fan of Thai food - servings are too bloody small at the places I've eaten.
However one of the daughters housemates was raving about the Red Curry Duck at the local
Thai restaurant when we were in Armidale for the graduation on the weekend.
Having nothing planned, because we turned down the invite to the daughters themed (In the Wild)
graduation party, we decided to give it a go.
Absolutely superb :D
Enough curry to make you sit up and take notice but not enough to reach for the fire extinguisher.
Duck was very tender and the vegetables were an interesting mix :) I wasn't aware lychees and
pineapple were considered vegetable :shock: Must be because I lack a culinary education :oops:
Oh, and the coconut rice was a hit with both of us.
The power of accurate observation is frequently called cynicism by those who don't have it.

Curry always seemed to me like pipe tobacco - smelled nicer than it tasted :( -That's pipe tobacco SMOKED not fried G :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

I like to do fried beef or gammon cubes with pineapple on a bed of egg fried rice once in a while, simple but tasty :lol: :lol:
