floppydrive Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 FD you are right about the spices available ... but I reckon we can grow them here! Same climate din naman di ba? And you are right again about the tailoring to the Pinoy palate. I am just a spoiled woman who wants to have her Thai food and eat it too Sandy Daza's qsr I think is still alive and there is this one thai qsr in LKG tower (I forget the name ... thai express ata) that serves close to authentic Thai curry because they import kaffir leaves which go into the curries. Whites normally go well with spicy food since they are generally sweet and fruity and don't clash with the flavor of Thai/Indian food most especially the curries. Sherwood Estate's Traminer Riesling does it for me (that's if I can find it here!) <{POST_SNAPBACK}>The basic curry powder from Thailand tastes very different from the other curries. This has the biggest effect on authenticity. Then you also have several types - yellow, green, red - all having different tastes and degrees of spciyness. To complicate things further, the taste is also affected by the other ingredients put in - eggplant, corn, mushroom, etc aside from the meats. The leaves too have an effect. Quote Link to comment

It's pyrotechnic only because the subject I'm referring to is highly-explosive in terms of charms and wit..... para ngang may nabasa din akong asparagus dun pero I forgot na - bulong mo nga sa akin hehehe...That came from a very authoritative resource person..... at may kinakarir nga si Casper!!!??? bulong mo na din kung sino hehehe yes pigs are like that...kahit fraction lang nung ability nya I could pass on happy na..I think it comes from practice - pigs muck around all day in the mud hehehe :evil: I wanna muck around na tuloy!!!!<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Isang beses???

Hi H-O-L, I know it's OT, but I'm desperate. Do you have any idea where to get this dark Bavarian wheat beer called Aventinus? It's from the Schneider and Sohn brewery.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I was going to give you a nice spanking for being OT boibastos but then I would have to spank everyone in the thread too kasi lahat kami OT! Defendant bods, your comments are out of order!!!! uso ngayon ang trial by publicity (ala s.cam)!!!kung sinabi ni lipstick 3x ka sumablay you are as guilty as rumored!! so prove your innocence which i think you could but i will overrule!!!! unless mag painom ka and this judge will consider your appeal!!!! which one about the asparagus... 'cos asparagus (read as far as) i am concerned all i know about asparagus is it has high uric acid content... on the swallowing part... well that i have to dig deeper!!!! but considering that the comment came from a very authoritative resource person , i submit!!!!! i still cant forget that elephant by the riverbank in thailand!!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}>Hahaha nabibili ka pala Judge Masi! Asparagus is known to make certain body fluids taste a little "off" while pineapple and apple sweeten the honey! You really have a fixation with those elepantes! Sure ka hindi elepanties? :hypocritesmiley: Quote Link to comment

Lipstick Posted August 1, 2005 Share Posted August 1, 2005 really? i didnt know that nanbantei fastfoodish! my jap clients and i go there for the yakitori, and they say that it's pretty authentic. at any rate, you have to admit that the miso dipping sauce is good! d ba!!! sayang ililibre ko pa naman ikaw dun.. e since ayaw mo pala dun... another place where the dipping sauce is so sarap is this korean resto in mimosa!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The Nanbantei in GB3 is very authentic. Unfortunately, I think they overcook their bbq's here. Funny, it wasn't like that when they were in Polaris. Maybe they have someone else manning the griller. But between the yakitori in GB3 Nanbantei and Kikufuji, I'd go for Kikufuji. The servings are juicier! Wala lang ngang miso dipping sauce sa KF. Personally, I prefer the yakitori cooked shio style (grilled with salt). If it's an indication, there are more Japanese eating in Kikufuji than in Nanbantei. Shochu and sake really go well with this cuisine. Maybe we should have a WEB to compare Shochu, shiraz and sake. :upside:<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Nanbantei fastfoodish??? hmmm well I give you some leeway in your observation since you do know your cuisine hehehe<{POST_SNAPBACK}> Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ... wahahahhaha sorry po Daming Nanbantei fans pala dito. Didn't mean to offend anyone's fine palate but the one time I had dinner in Nanbantei Greenbelt3 (year 2003), I was not at all impressed with their yakitori nor their teriyaki cod (plus the other dishes we ordered). It could've been an off night for them and it could also be because they had just opened then. It was passable but in a fastfood way, feeling ko parang kumain ako sa Tokyo Tokyo that night. *peace* Quote Link to comment

Thai curries don't use curry powder but curry paste (pounded chilies) and the paste is dictated on the type/color of chili used. Haha why do I feel like it gets more complicated as we discuss the merits/possibility of having authentic Thai food in the P.I.? I just really miss Thai food, I grew up on it and my palate was shaped against the Thai flavors profile. There you go, Your Honor. The ravishing lady is again maligning whatever shred of rep*tation I still have. It's high time we throw her out of the bar hehehe..... buti hindi ka humirit ng sagot sa "presence".
