Serious questions here:
I've been back about 3 years. I miss certain foods from the US (where I'm from) but where I currently live the western food is horrible and way overpriced. First of all, I know certain meats, cheeses, etc. cost more here and I understand that cost. However, I have not found any place serving consistently good food in a western style that would merit such price gouging and usually those places are just microwaving frozen stuff.
I don't mean to start a thread where someone can tell me we can have great burgers or fish and chips or a real steak here. I'm just curious as to how many expats on this forum eat Thai food more than their own comfort foods. I see a lot of people move here and live here but refuse to learn the language or eat the food. I mean, whats wrong with silk worms!? they're soft, chewy and delicious!
Never had crickets though, should I try them?
