To eat or not to eat … wait, what?
by Primož on Nov.14, 2008, under Experience
When choosing which food to eat, I usually prefer something I know about and what I can trust has the same taste as it had years back. I rarely try something new, though lately I started to force myself to lose this weird prejudice about unknown food. And although it may seem that I don’t like anything exotic, I really love the mix of tastes the European cooks didn’t ever dare to try out. I’m talking about Chinese food.
At first I was a bit sceptic, because I didn’t know anything about their food, and also because I liked the food I ate till then, and didn’t really feel any need to try out something new. But when I first tried it, it was like finding a new world of tastes! Why didn’t anyone before think about chicken with ananas, or peanut sauce? Or fried bananas with honey? They’re fantastic! And on top of that, I found a neat restaurant, with a self-service option, so I can take as much as I want, while paying the same.
Ahh, student life is great: everyday, lots of good food for little money (if you have enough time of course)… yummy
