Home Cooking

After the first week of eating nothing but Thai food, this half-ass Italian meal was an amazing vacation for the taste buds.
On our table we also have some nam plow or bottled water, some french bread and a small bowl of extra tomato sauce because someone in this picture is a little obsessed with having a lot of sauce.
This meal kinda tasted like the pasta you would get at a Sizzler, which in the US, wouldnt be that great, but....in Thailand, Amazing!!! Let me explain.
Last night we finally got a table. It was probably our 4th or 5th attempt to get a table, but each time we went, the wait was way too long.
In Thailand, Sizzler seems to be a very popular restaurant and last night we finally found out why.
For one, what you and I call salad in America is almost no where to be found in Thailand, unless you go to a really expensive restaurant or... you guessed it, Sizzler!
All you can eat salad bar for about 4 bucks which includes 3 different soups, Fresh Mixed Fancy Greens, Iceberg, an assortment of cold salads, every fresh vegtable, all the American dressings, hot pasta, the most delicious texas toast ever, an assortment of fresh fruit and desert. Pretty good deal, huh?
While we were happily chomping away at our plates of cherry tomatoes and fresh lettuce we both agreed that this was the first time either of us had been to Sizzler since maybe 3rd of 4th grade.
