Ko Chang #6 - Canadians here?!?!



I stumbled across a bar called "Canucks". Noticing the all red interior, Canadian flags in prominent positions, I felt this must be owned by a Canadian. The owner wasn't there that day, but the Thai staff said "the big boss was from Canada".

I drank a beer and ate some pizza, pondering over which part of Canada he must be from. I thought BC was likely...what do you guys think?


All red interior..


Canada and Thailand!

Cooking Japanese

Image
I've been trying to cook some of my favorite dishes from my time in Japan...I guess I miss the taste of my second home.^_^ A friend recommended I try "Omurice" which means: omelet/rice. It's very easy... 1. Make rice. ^_^ // Fry up chicken (in my case, I used sausages), green pepper, onion and whatever else you like to put in an omelet. 2. After the rice is cooked, add ketchup and mix. Add the ketchup/rice to the chicken/veggie mix and stir-fry. [My German friend was really funny when I told her this recipe: "Ketchup?? With rice?!?! Ew!"] (laugh) 3. Make an omelet. Add the rice/stir-fry mix to the middle. Fold around the edges. **Hard part!** 4. Flip the entire thing over onto a plate. It took all my concentration, and I gave myself a little pep talk before the actual "flip". But, success! I did it! Yay! ^_^/ **Bonus** Today is Tanabata in Japan. This translates to "Star Festival". You can read/ see pictures about this special day HERE . ...

Melt Me Cafe

I researched to find the *best* gelato in Bangkok, and this shop: Melt Me , in Thong Lo, was the winner. The gelato case (click to see more detail): I headed over on a Saturday to treat myself. The shop features not only wonderful flavors of gelato, but also handmade chocolates and milk from Hokkaido, the northern island of Japan. Drinks, cakes and other sweets are also available. The chocolate display case: Handmade chocolate selections: I know I'm a pig for eating too many chocolates, but you don't have to rub it in!!! Customers can test taste the gelato before purchasing. Two flavors in a small cup costs only 99 Baht. (=$2.27 CAD/ 227 JPY). My picks: vanilla and forest berry My huge iced coffee: The theme inside is based on "Alice in Wonderland", with one large "tea party table" featured in the center of the shop. It's bright and sunny, and the perfect place to take a rest, enjoy some Italian gelato, and people watch. The tea table: Counter top guys: ...

Cabbages & Condoms

Image
If you can think past the name, Cabbages & Condoms is perhaps the MOST famous restaurant in Bangkok. It was started by a charity group that wanted to promote safe sex, lower the birth rate in Thailand and educate others in AIDS prevention. It's a really beautiful spot; at night, the garden area is full of small lights. It's highly recommended to take a date! ^_^ Garden seating area: Inside dining room: I made a reservation for my sunny friend, Ms. D and I on a Tuesday afternoon. We enjoy eating Pad Thai, spring rolls and an "ancient Thai appetizer". I'm sorry I forgot the name, but this appetizer had a unique taste: toasted coconut, with peanuts, sweet onions, bits of lime and to eat it, the staff told us to roll up the leaf and stuff that into our mouths! It was really delicious! The Thai appetizer with toasted coconut: Cabbages & Condoms is located on Sukhumvit Soi 12. BTS Asoke, take the sky walk to Times Square, walk about 5 minutes. Menu is Thai foo...
