Food Part I

I went out to eat with my old neighbor in Brooklyn who coincidently relocated to Bangkok a few months before I arrived. We had the Thai equivalent of ShabuShabu. It was good. Then I went straight to the Wat Rampoeng in ChangMai. I loved the food. For breakfast we had noodles, or congee or something with just a little bit of meat in it. It was perfect. For lunch, at 10:30AM we had multiple dishes, meat and/or veg with rice. There was a lot of it. I loved it although I took to eating vegetarian at this meal because sometimes it was mystery meat and I was a little creeped out. The meat was al-naturale including whatever little hairs might be growing out of the skin of the little piggy. I was loving the food until day 9 and then I hit the brick wall. I started thinking of KFC (that’s a Christina legacy – I hadn’t eaten KFC in many years until Christina insisted upon bringing KFC or Popeyes to every group event.) I still haven’t had KFC but we did go to a “European Café” the other night. I have to say it was good. I confess I enjoyed it. I had a triple decker ham and cheese on whole wheat toast with exactly 2 slices of cheese and 2 slices of ham. Well, it was a “European Café” not an American diner with a quarter pound of cheese and ham each. Generally, I am eating a lot of street food – noodles, fried meat/fish balls, lots and lots of sweet drinks.
