    Ok, ok... I feel someone has to speak up against this atrocious lie! That there is nasty, sir! :p Oh, you Brits (and Murikans?) with your processed beans and greasy strips of pig's fat, calling it food... What you have there, my good droid-friend, is nasty children's food, at best! ...with a sprinkling of flatulence and atrial fibrillation! :eek: I'll take the egg and chuck the rest in the bin, thank you very much (emperor)



    And don't get me started on pork! Pig's meat tastes like rancid butter and petroleum plastic marinated in a dirty puddle! :( It tastes exactly how Gamorreans look! (gamorrean)



    So, yeah... I assume I'm gonna make tons of new friends here now, yeh? ;) 'Cause there are sooo many people who feel the same on this matter? :rolleyes:



    (Btw., did I mention that I might have brain damage? :confused: ).

    Best wishes,
    Your friendly Scandiwegian firebrand who is now about to flee for the hills of Hoth :p

    nasty children's food? flatulence & atrial fibrillation?

    i'd be so insulted right now.. if you hadn't completely smashed it in terms of my eating habits :D
    that's what's missing from @NinjaRen's awesome meal... a couple of delicious pork sausages !


    i take that food to another level.. i'd have it in a big bowl and mix it all up before eating :D

    More like a downward spiral! (duel)
    (We really need an R2 emoji where he zaps lightning with his... um... little zapper)

    @Andrew Waples, pineapples must be banned, broh! (epic fail)


    Hm... I feel a little bit like (chopper) today...

    According to google temp converter it’s 392 Fahrenheit.

    Please note I take no responsibility for the accuracy of this info & can not be held responsibility for any burnt food that may result :p.

    @NinjaRen and @RockyRoadHux: you've managed to put two of my least favorite foods on a plate! XD and yet you still make it look incredible!
    it helps that there's bacon, of course. mmmmm...bacon. : D

    the weather was fantastic so we had ice cream and on Saturday we've been to a Birthday party, where they served some exquisite Bavarian food: roast pork, spare ribs, roast meat on sauerkraut with a selection of dumplings:

    Extract from “Star Dude’s Food Adventures


    Had to get up early this Saturday, to reach my workplace for next week.
    vtn_food_02.jpg

    So at the Airport, a breakfast for champions was in place. Plain fried egg on toast with bacon, but it was quite good!
    vtn_food_01.jpg

    To get to the second breakfast, I had to cross the Alps...
    vtn_food_03.jpg

    ...and Dubai by night.
    vtn_food_04.jpg

    After the arrival, I had to wait for the foodcourt in a shopping center to open at 10:15 p.m to get a second breakfast (well, some 20 hours later).

    There were these minced shrimps, fried on sugar cane sticks with fish sauce dipping.
    vtn_food_05.jpg

    And a healthy bowl of spicy, Mekong style noodle soup.
    vtn_food_06.jpg

    After a stir-though, one could find the octopus, shrimp, pork, fried egg and of course noodles in the spicy broth.
    vtn_food_07.jpg

    This is how the make sure your drinks stays cool and watery.
    vtn_food_08.jpg

    Nevertheless, even when I travel, something always reminds me of this Cantina place and thread.
    vtn_food_09.jpg

    They even have the Avenger’s Tower here!
    vtn_food_10.jpg

    And street bars.
    vtn_food_11.jpg

    I think I will reserve some of the restaurants found for a future trip.
    vtn_food_12.jpg

    The dark side power of the coffee culture is strong with these people.
    vtn_food_13.jpg

    For dinner I was invited by a fine colleague to his house. For starters, we had some salad…
    vtn_food_14.jpg


    … and those goose tongues, simmered with star anise and tons of garlic.
    vtn_food_15.jpg

    The main course was cooked chicken and fried pork (and rice of course). All kinds of sauces rounded up the serving. That pork was really a big hit!
    vtn_food_16.jpg


    ... to be continued...

    Star Dude’s Food Adventures – Part II

    As promised, I would like to take to further on a tour to Southeast Asian food culture. Although it’s been a while since my return, here comes the story nonetheless…

    This land has Lotus flowers…
    evening_02_01.jpg

    …rooftop bars with swimming pools with a nice view…
    evening_02_02.jpg

    … and culture of all kinds.
    evening_02_03.jpg

    On that special night, the local team of my co-workers had a celebration, so they wanted to go for some food that is also at least a little bit special for them too. In this case maybe because of all the Kobe beef included.

    Although being in Saigon, we went out for a Korean BBQ.
    evening_02_04.jpg

    Having 34°C (94°F) on the outside, it was strange to have this small xmas(?) tree on the inside with ice flakes falling from above on it, heralding more strange frozen stuff.
    evening_02_05.jpg

    Waiting on the table were all kinds of cold sides, like glass noodle salad with sesame and algae and rice cakes.
    evening_02_06.jpg

    Dried mini-fishes in some chili sauce and of course spicy kimchi.
    evening_02_07.jpg

    For dippings everybody got salt and spicy sauce, with some more marinated cabbage in the background.
    evening_02_08.jpg


    Before everything started, we selected a bunch of cuts from the meat counter, mostly Kobe, some pork and beef stomach.
    evening_02_09.jpg


    For a good BBQ, a beer was in order. But I never had frozen(!) foam on top ever before. It was like slush-ice on top.
    evening_02_10.jpg

    Then you need some charcoal, placed in inlets at different places in the table.
    evening_02_11.jpg

    Waiting for the meat to get done, one could enjoy all kinds of other stuff like this delicious soup which contained some mushrooms…
    evening_02_12.jpg

    …and also some nice crab.
    evening_02_13.jpg


    What I just did one time (as proposed by the locals): The proper wrapping for a piece of Kobe beef, the size of a matchbox (they use scissors to cut the meat in small pieces at your table!): Place it in the center of a salad leaf and some other greenery, add one whole glove of raw garlic and a piece of hot chili, fold it and stuff everything in your mouth ad once. Well, in this process the taste of the meat is unfortunately somewhat lost.
    evening_02_14.jpg

    Waiting for the stomach to cook…
    evening_02_15.jpg


    … you can even top some regular beef with this chewy experience.
    evening_02_16.jpg

    The further the dinner proceeded, the stranger some of the sculptures of the iced beer foam topping looked.
    evening_02_17.jpg

    @Star Dude: as always, the awesomeness is awesome! : D

    i don't know about cuisine, but i am currently investigating a suspicious arrival from the outer rim.
    Screen Shot 2019-04-30 at 9.59.24 AM.png

    the stasis pod appears to contain some sort of lepis-like alien form.

    Screen Shot 2019-04-30 at 9.59.34 AM.png

    upon releasing it, we're not entirely sure of its intentions, but we've called in the big guns for the interrogation.

    Screen Shot 2019-04-30 at 10.37.56 AM.png

    we'll see how the supreme leaders deal with this curious creature.

    meanwhile, this trooper is being publicly shamed for shipping Reylo. XD

    Screen Shot 2019-04-30 at 10.37.39 AM.png

    thank you @RockyRoadHux and @NinjaRen; this will no doubt provide much ongoing entertainment (and be very tasty as well!). XD
