From my experience in Thailand (not Udon yet), the bacon served up in Thailand is the American version of Bacon. That is, -- just the fatty tails, less the meaty eye part. I had the same disappointing experience in USA. English bacon of course has much more tasty meat and a lot less fat. I can only assume that the the American influence in Thailand since the Vietnam war is responsible for this Thai conception of what bacon is supposed to be.

One thing that really disappoints me and I am sure a lot of Brits and Aussies is to sit down to a big breakfast of bacon and eggs and find the main ingredient of bacon is nothing more than the American style, fatty tails. For the Americans I imagine its like ordering a good cup of coffee and getting a cup of instant decaff.



You can buy very good home made smoked and cooked bacon from the German bakery at the "Rauchkate", Thanon Adunyadet (from there you can see the back of Robinson shopping centre) I believe the place is open daily between 11 and 21 h.

The German baker is also selling German or European deli'2, homemade sussages and salats. The food is good.

Well I had fun and everyone who supposed to be there was there.

Turned out it was Thai Holiday so lots of Thai's go to help a young guy and his Dad learn some basics. I know what to do just can't do it :lol:

I'll listen for the toot toot.

Time for a new thread Beer Monkey is in town :lol: :lol: :lol:
