What''s your favourite type of food to get when you go out?

[Deelight]

THAI Pad Thai or Cheow Kai Teow (so not spelled like that)

Or SUSHI or Japanese or anything hearty

I really love anything noodlie

But no1 thing to drink is BUBBLE TEA omg drink of the gods

 

[absolut_blonde]

Sushi. But Thai is pretty high up on the list as well. Especially green curry w/prawns, basil chicken, beef with lime leaf, drunken noodles and coconut rice. Drool!

Favorite brunch food: Eggs Benedict with home fries

Favorite type of cuisine: This is tough -- I love Italian probably the most. I also love Indian (chicken tikka masala with rice and naan). I really like sushi too. My FI could easily eat Chinese food any day of the week -- I really like it but I need a break from it once in a while. He also loves a good BBQ. We also love seafood.

Favorite restaurant desserts: Tollhouse cookie pie, chocolate mousse, and chocolate lava cake (you know, chocolate cake with ooey, gooey chocolate fudge/sauce (whatever) in the middle and served warm.

Oh, BBQ and seafood are two of my favourites too! Mmm, when I was back home last month, my folks did a few mini-BBQs for me because I haven''t had any really good BBQ while here in the UK (all the BBQ sauce tastes plain to me, like ketchup almost). Bleh.

By the way, Zoe, I replied to your ''Who''s Who'' thread, in case you have some time to go over there and check it out!

I love great sushi, my mercury levels must be through the roof. DH calls it my ''$300/month addiction'' and though I''m the biggest cheapskate ever I can''t help it.

But just think about your cell membranes luxuriating in all thoses omegas, not to mention your muscles frolicking with the clean protein strands and your thyroid bowing to the fearsome regulating powers of nori.

Haha, you are a wonderful woman!

Hilarious. I am just like you, NEL. I hate spending money on groceries, but MAN I cannot resist sushi. It is the only food that never doesn''t sound good. I am so picky I drive BF nuts when we are trying to come up with something to eat...sushi is the only thing I never turn down! I love the images Galateia described, lol!! I ate some last night....yum!!!

 

[Bia]

Obviously sushi is a no. 1 contender in this forum. Those of you in NY, where you do get really good sushi? The only place I''ve been to in the city is Sushi Samba and that place is so trendy its more fashionista than food! Its good though...

I know a few good places in Westchester but nothing outstanding, yet. Fill me in...

 

[Bliss]

Piiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinkberrrrrrrrrrrrrrrryyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!

Pinkberry fanatic here.

All you ladies are making me hungry!

 

[Bliss]

Oh Bia!

I''m a Manhattanite, too!

OK: Nobu is amazing. So is Blue Ribbon Sushi. Sushi of Gari is really great. Nobu to Go if you''re more in the mood for casual dining.

Now I''m staaaaarviiiiiing!!!!

 

[sunnyd]

Thai is my absolute favorite. Pad-se-iw any day of the week!!! (and most days of the week, now that I work 2 blocks from an AMAZING place downtown!

Second is Italian. Any white sauce or stuffed pasta is good with me.

So am I the only one who doesn''t like sushi?

::ducks from flying objects::

 

[Bia]

I thought you were! Yay! I will definitely have to try Nobu, as I heard it was very good. I don''t go out to dinner as often as I''d like--I WISH my man loved to go out for dinner because I love to! But when he gets home he wants to chill, and sometimes I have to bribe him. That''s what happens when you spoil your man by cooking every night...then he never wants to go out! Maybe I should start cooking really crappy...hmmmmmmm...

BTW I am so in love with your ring.

It is so beautiful!!! Exactly what I hope to have one day (soon, please God!)...definitely not 3cts. (not in my wildest dreams would I expect to get 3cts.) but maybe 2cts if I am a lucky girl like you!!!

 

[diamondfan]

Sunny, I hate it. I will only eat cooked stuff, and I hate the roe on top. It is nasty. It is like bait to me. I am pretty easy going and will eat lots of things, but sushi is not one that I can tolerate.

 

[CNOS128]

Okay, I will tell you about my favorite sushi place in NY, but you have to keep it quiet!

It''s called Mizu, on 20th btwn Park & Broadway. So delicious, and such nice sushi chefs. It''s popular (i.e., crowded) but not as hyped as the Nobus and Harus and restaurants of that ilk. I recommend the Pink roll.

 

[Bliss]

Bia, your man is LUCKY if you can cook. WOW! I''d have homecooked food over restaurant food ANY DAY. Wow! And you will get the ring of your dreams from the man of your dreams! I just have a feeling you will & be totally over the moon. I''m sure you will be even happier with your ring no matter what the size because it''ll be fiery and blasting rainbows... stunning everyone around you. How lucky will you feel?

TheBigT -- THANKS FOR THE REC! We will try that place! FI is a foodie with an amazing database of sushi restaurants. If I stump him, you get the credit! That would really be something!

 

[Bia]

Yea, I can cook...I actually really love to. But its fun going out! That's the good thing about living in Manhattan, you have every restaurant at your disposal any time! When I get BF out, I take full advantage, believe me

. But, I always knew he was a homebody, so what can you do? We have plans tonight, and wouldn't you know he calls me 10 min ago and says, "Baby, its raining pretty hard out, should we cancel?" HA! I said, "nice try babe...but NOPE!"

Hehehe. Gotta love 'em for trying!

*We should do our LIW get-together at a sushi spot, since we all love it...ideas, ideas...

 

[that_someone_special]

yesterday I had a craving for pizza, peanuts, and oreo ice cream. I'm not pregnant, though I can eat like a pregnant lady sometimes

My FAVORITE food is usually pasta. Or for a quick meal, a chipotle burrito

I love two places that we have over here but when I went with some of the Americans in my year, they said that it''s nothing like what they get at home. I think it''s very tasty though!

*grins* Ok, that''s fair. There is a Mexican place here called Choquitos that''s got good food--supposedly it''s Mexican, which I don''t completely believe, but it IS tasty!

HI:

Butter chicken with coconut nan from the New Asian Village in Edmonton. MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM

cheers--Sharon

 

[gigglebuns1186]

I love seafood! Crabs are my favorite!

 

[Rhea]

I realised about half way through our dinner out at Thai that this thread was probably the reason that I wanted it so badly. DH couldn''t believe how insist I was on Thai and even with his questioning it didn''t occur to me that this thread was to blame.

It was good. Oh so good.

 

[goodfun7580]

Mmmm this thread is making me so hungry! I can always go for a piping hot cheese pizza

(extra cheese is good too), or a steak, preferbly filet mignon, with some mashed potatoes, oh and I love to go anywhere they have avacodo eggrolls as an appetizer, yummy yummy! I''ve never been for thai food, but it must be good if you all love it! I''ll have to find a thai restaurant in my area and convince bf to take me!

 

[monarch64]

Pizza is my weakness....I will take it any way I can get it, stuffed with spinach, thin crust with cheese, thin crust with veggies and cheese, heck even Digiorno''s stuffed crust from the frozen foods section counts as "going out" to me sometimes, hee hee.

Funny! I too got a craving after this thread. Friday night I insisted that we go for Thai after we went to see BF's new nephew (so cute!). They live in Queens and there are a number of fantastic Thai restaurants in that area. We went really late but I didn't care--had spring rolls, dumplings and the Masaman curry...it was soooooo good! I left very full and very happy!

Yay, I am responsible for spreading Thai goodness all around the world! Woohoo!

J is coming down to visit soon...perhaps I can convince him to take me out for Thai when he''s here...
