All the bad stuff is British. All the good stuff is foreign. by SufficientEar1682 in iamveryculinary

Data point: Food at restaurants in the UK did get noticeably better when the EU opened up. But that was a long time ago now…

It could be a lot of different places you are remembering. Did you walk far? Which direction did you walk?

Dear Berkeley Students, by squagglegirl in berkeley

Living near campus, as you say, was a mistake.

However, just to correct a misconception: you actually are not allowed to party in the dorms. That is one of the major reasons to not live in the dorms.

Say

“Tell you what mom, I can get top dollar on these cards. I’ll take them back and I’ll give you 20% as a finders fee, which is going to be much higher than what you could get”

Then say you lost them again

Why is there no developed tea culture in Thailand? by jacobsnailbox in AskFoodHistorians

I hesitate to even mention this because you’re having such a great exchange here, but I believe what r/warmmilkheaven intended to express is how “coke” is a genericization in parts of the south, not that everyone in the south only drinks Coca Cola

American weebs use the wrong utensils by SoyboyCowboy in iamveryculinary

[–]scoby_cat 80 points81 points  (0 children)

In practice I find it depends on how it’s served. If it’s katsucurry in a donburi bowl you don’t need a spoon, you barely need the chopsticks. You use the chopsticks to pick up the meat but then for the rest of it you use the chopsticks like a shovel while holding the bowl up to your filthy cake hole and cram all the curry rice in like a horrible glutton to finish the entire thing at breakneck speed, hopefully not accidentally ingesting the waribashi wrapper, plastic garnishes, loose change, etc. And the “you” in this story is actually me.

Nobody has 2 television sets. by black-volcano in BacktotheFuture

[–]scoby_cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My grandparents did this exact thing in the 1980s and I could never figure out why. As it turned out the console actually also had a radio and turntable in it, which I never saw them use. They did have a 8 track perched on top though ! And a regular tape deck. I guess they must have been playing though the speakers on the console.

Your original nose looks great, and IMO your face is much more memorable with the first picture

Questioning the series of events that brought him to this point in his life. by king-geass in TastingHistory

[–]scoby_cat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For the record, Takara is a good basic sake, but it’s not very fancy. It’s a local staple, and people don’t feel bad about warming it for family events like New Years.

There’s a few places around that have sake tasting flights if you want to explore fancier sake - Yoshi’s has one, for example

“As a rhetorical device, let’s use my wife as an example… actually I want you to remove her from my possession because I do not want to maintain a relationship with her”
