Where else but in Thailand can you buy beautiful nice skin on chicken breast for 70 baht a kilo and right next to them our chicken feet that are 145 baht a kilo.

This chicken breast is battered in a tempura batter with quite a bit of spice deep fried lettuce tomato onion on a very soft roll and just a little mayonnaise. For 130 baht I was able to make two of these they're huge.

Food pricing can be strange. At Kroger in the US it's still not uncommon for chicken breasts to be on sale at $1/lb while chicken wings which as you know butchers used to just give away, go for $3.99/lb.

One of my friends here in Thailand likes to say that one of the food industries strokes of genius was to make buffalo wings a thing and then to double down on the brilliance by convincing consumers that there were really two wing pieces in one chicken wing.

Probably from the same source, but only half a breast here as they're so frigging big.  Finally got the hang of the sage and onion stuffing balls, and the last of the potatoes getting used up before heading home for a few weeks.

Had to do a quick in and out of Thailand and return route was via Mumbai. Had to order some food even though I wasn’t hungry, just pointed to something I’ve never had before. Some sort of chaat. Decent enough, no idea what I was paying when I bought it, turns out to be about 3 quid 😀

Nice….hey Matt is the kimchi as good for your gut as they claim? Curious to make my own, but I can’t wait 15 minutes for my grub, much less 3 weeks! That milky thing too, kefir? Always mentioned together on YouTube

"Kimchi is a fermented food, which makes it an excellent probiotic. The same lactobacilli bacteria found in yogurt and other fermented dairy products are also found in kimchi. Consuming the so-called “good bacteria” in kimchi can help you maintain a healthy digestion."

Yes, good stuff. I need to eat more of it.

Laz, you are for sure the diet king in here. 

 

Good quality yogurt is incredibly good for gut issues.....    Not much else can get your gut back in order as good yogurt. I have learned that Belgium yoggie is the best. I get the unsweetened. Put a little generic Stevia in it and I am good to go.

Chana masala and naan for Mum & I, about 440 baht for 2 portions through UberEats. Usually I don’t go for veggie Indian options, but this is delicious…..my apologies to @galenkia vegan is the way to go……

JK I’m only on Zoloft…….not heroin. Carnivore for life baby!
