I'll take your word for it. While I may be game that don't mean I like everything I try. I'll never eat possum again.

But that looks asian and I like alot of asian stuff even if I can't pronounce it. Really like me some kung pao or schezaun.

Fried Blutwurst I can eat by the pound. That stuff in the picture not so much. Having said that I do like sushi when its cooked properly.

Already cooked and the peanut sauce doesn’t need it, looks like shrimp spring roll, essentially cooked shrimp with some vegetables, (think egg roll) in a wrapper that’s kind of like a thin noodle


You guys don’t know what’s good

I'm kinda lucky here , because where I am is densely populated there are a lot of options for food. Tons of Spanish food , Brazilian steak houses , Portuguese food.
On the rarer stuff we have a Hungarian goulash place , an Australian bakery , several Indian places , Greek food , Thai restaurants , and just one vegan place. ( I don't go there....lol)

Well Hoss, I give ya credit in wanting to try a variety of food. Not a thing wrong in that. The way nightlife described it, that sounds good.

And Cragar, the variety of great cuisine where you are is legendary.

I've been enjoying cooking Thai dishes in my new wok. Just wonderful food. Love it.

It's good stuff. Especially the fish dishes. Baked cod to die for.

One bite of that Leftlane and I'd have gargle with battery acid just to get my taste buds back in order

We also did chinese buffet yesterday. I flirted with the little server and she responded well to it.

I've never tried vietnamese but to hear dad tell it I'm not missing anything but he's not as adventurous as I am and he has every reason to dislike anything vietnamese.

Judging by lefties opinion I'm good with not knowing what's good

A point to ponder -
Anytime you decide try something new to your palate , find a very good example to taste test rather than what ever comes along. Trying sushi for the first time in your life from a gas station will ruin that experience for life.
Going to a good sushi restaurant will let you know what it should taste like and you can judge lesser experiences from that benchmark.

We have a couple Vietnamese resturants here. The better one makes excellent spring rolls. I've had spring rolls from Chinese buffets that were kinda lame. Just like there are a bunch of pizza places here that make OK to lame pizza. I will go out of my way and pay a bit more for the places that make great pizza.

I've had good spring rolls. Mama Lee was the wife of our First Sergeant she was Thai and they had married while he was stationed there. She looked after us single guys in the barracks and saw to it we had better chow than the mess hall around the holidays. Her spring rolls were to die for.

One of our squad leaders was married to a Korean gal. Grew to love kimchi. But fair warning kimchi washed down with hefeweiss makes for rather potent exhaust fumes. More than once top made 1st platoon pull up the rear on the Monday morning PT run.

Other than "homemade" Kimchi, this store-bought brand is best I've found! Costco sells it.

I can see that some of you fellas will put anything in your mouth. I have stuff in my shop that looks more appetizing then that.
