#4

A co-worker and close friend of mine and I went to lunch yesterday at our favorite Thai restaurant.  We go there several time a month and over the years I have found a few menu items that I really like.

My favorites are Pad Thai, Gang Gui and Pad Talay.  Pad Thai has a lot of fresh bean spouts and noodles where as Gang Gui and Pad Talay have a basil coconut curry sauce.  Yum!

Well, yesterday, I ordered chicken satay, which are chicken strips on a wooden stick.  This really surprised the waitress as I have never ordered it before.  My friend, who is Chinese, explained to the waitress that I try to eat low carb foods and she did so in Chinese.

So the conversation between the two of them consisted of a lot of sounds that I couldn’t understand with the  occasional “starch” thrown in.  In the end, the two women concluded that in the future, I needed to order number 4.

The waitress turned to me and said “number 4.  Very good for you.  Lots vegetables.  No starch.  No oil.”

Well, I guess next time, I will have to give number 4 a try.  If I don’t, I am sure that I will get concerned looks from both of them.

  1. I’ve stopped by a few times and liked what you’ve posted. I’ve bookmarked your site so I can see it from time to time. I”ll subscribe to your feed. I’ve recently been more interested in physical fitness and I feel great! I started taking supplements that would help me out for energy as well. I read some health related articles on some sites and get new information weekly. Lately I’ve checked out this site to improve my overall internal health cleanse colon naturally. Keep up the good work, I’ll plan to stop by again.
