Been itching for Thai curry for a couple of weeks, and there's an extremely good green curry at a reasonably accessible place here in Bremerton. Have to park a couple blocks away most of the time because of street repaving and such, but that green stuff makes up for it. I think they use the same recipe as the first actual Thai restaurant I visited on a working tour of Bangkok in 1994. Green curries are considered the hottest, and they will tone down the spiceivity to a "mild" level. I survived this amount of heat just to see what it would be like. Good stuff! A bottle or two of their not-for-export lager would be good additions and my garage refrigerator didn't let me down.
"Send me somewheres east of suez, where the best is like like the worst; where there ain't no ten commandments, and a man can raise a thirst.
For I've heard the east a-callin, and it's there that I would be:
By the old Moulmein pagoda lookin' lazy at the sea.
Thanks to my senior class English teacher (Las Vegas High, Las Vegas NV) for teaching me the way this sort of poetry should be read aloud.
