You can't keep us down. We are where the people are, serving it up.

Personally, I like the 2-wheel pedal power approach much better. A more elegant and easier way to get home than pushing a trolley. Also having 15 speeds(?) makes it easier to outrun the authorities. Not to mention having a bum warmer on the way home.... |

Street Food & Boat Vendor Pad Thai
Quote:
I am always amazed at the ingenuity of the vendors in that everything they need is on their cart, bicycle, boat or WHY.... Innovation is great! I never made it to Thailand, but I'd love to have a plate of Boat Vendor Pad Thai.... ___________________ MayDay Kamado Claypot, Cobb |

Makes no sense for them to be giving the "other" meat out. If it was so, he'd have used it as a selling point and charged more as the Chinese put a higher price on that stuff. The skewers being offered were all at the same price whether you chose lamb, beef or pork, so I'm sure they were what he said they were. As well, you could see for yourself. If not, you'd also hear about it from the other customers. ___________________ MayDay Kamado Claypot, Cobb |

While the US FDA has done a good job regulating public food, it's also brainwashed people against everything else. Standards are different everywhere but food safety is a main consideration for all good cooks anywhere around the world. While China may seem a 3rd-world country to some, the infrastructure is able to feed its 1.3+ billion citizens. That is is able to do so and maintain a relatively healthy workforce without a Medicare system says something to me about the food supply and the food knowledge of its people. Quote:
In this case, I looked at the guy's setup. It looked fairly clean. There was no food prepping onsite. Everything was pre-skewered. He would only be handling the wooden ends of the skewers even if he handled money. The coals were ashed over and hot. The cooked skewers looked fine. The meat looked and smelled done, it was carmelized and browned, and it did not smell "bad" (you can smell spoiled meat even when it's cooked). For me, the risk of eating this guy's food would have been low. But everyone has a different comfort level and different perspective, so to each their own. Personally, I love food experiences, so I like to check out the local offerings wherever I go. All the while keeping my own health and safety in mind. Not saying that I would eat everything though.... I figure everything in moderation. Don't sweat the small stuff. When in Rome, do as the Romans do. Or since I was in China, do as the Chinese do.... ___________________ MayDay Kamado Claypot, Cobb |
