Thai Breasts, Size Matters

The King of breasts in Isaan is Gai Muun (rotisserie Chicken) Juicy big succulent breasts attached to golden brown bodies heated from the in and outside
There is nothing wrong with Gai Yaang, aka chicken on a stick , aka BBQ chicken if you are not into hot succulent golden breasts that Gai Muun provides.

Gai Yaang in pieces or half or whole chicken consists of the usual tiny little brown breast found all over Thailand. Nothing wrong with nibbling on a little breast,but Gai Muun gives a man a breast he can truly wrap his lips around and enjoy with a friend or alone any time of day or night, with his beverage of choice.

Korea BBQ Khon Kaen

Restaurants of this type can be found throughout Isaan. The photos pretty much explain it all. For about 99 to 199 Baht, depending on the extent of the buffet you get an all you can eat feast. In you table is set a charcoal pot with an aluminum apparatus on top. It pops up in the center and has a channel for the soup around the circumference. Beef, pork, chicken and seafood. Vegetables and all the other stuff as well as mushrooms. And if you have room there is ice cream. Beer is available or you can bring your own beverage and buy set-ups. And at many of the places there is entertainment available as well. This is the sort of night out to enjoy with any number of people and for sure not to hurry. Enjoy the crowd. I am sometimes amazed at the amount of food a person can devour. And I am positive women have hollow legs, where they can store a spare kilo or 2.You might also find this called suki at some places. Take your time and enjoy Isaan Style

Goong Pao Restaurant, Khon Kaen

Finally had the chAnce to visit Goong Pao for a meal and hopefully it will be the first of many. The Plaa Meuk in the yaam was not overcooked and there were plenty of tomatoes which really makes me happy. THe Tom Yaang Goong was perfect and had that just bit of sweet that gives a delicious balance to the soup. My only mistake was to leave the remaining goong in the simmering pot. The goong were perfect when we devoured the first ones.The Fried Sea Snapper went down well.
We arrived early so the crowd was light, service was fine.
Next time I will try their Char-coaled Goong.

Is khon kaen like chicago menu neua restaurant

Menu neua is a neighborhood place like we used to have all over the west but especially places like chicago where you had italian, irish, german, polish any kind of food you wanted. Here in khon kaen its not by nationality its by menu and size and location. menu neua has 7 tables, fat aunties has 50. both have great food. Menu neua is a place where everyone knows your name. it's utilitarian but cosy and comfortable. It does what it does well and i wish there were more like it. People come in enjoy themselves and  people talk to each other this is what a neighborhood place should be. The staff looks happy and are polite, real polite, not "Amazing Thailand" bullshit polite. If you like food, comfort and a great atmosphere menu neua is a new star in the khonkaen skyline
