We are what we eat, what's you're favourite food?

kas —

What we choose to eat determines what kind of person we are to some extent and also determines our physical appearence, emotional side and lifestyle.
It shapes us to be the people we are (literally), hence the saying goes "we are what we eat" is true to some extent.

On this note i would like to ask you people what you like to eat? What do you tend to eat or drink the most? What can't you resist when you see on a plate starring at you screaming "eat me eat me".
What's you're favourite, Indian dish, Italian dish, Chinese dish, fruit, veg, drink, snack etc.

Personally i love brown rice, tuna fish, fish of any sort (lol no im not Bengali), Tandoori Chicken, Chicken Karahi. I also love vegetables like carrots, peppers, tomatoes, radish and fruit like bananna, apples, mangoes, water melons, lychees etc

So what about you guys?

Its IRN BRU is it not?

Not our fault the scotts spelt it wrong the first time.

And Diet coke is plain nasty.

I have had it served to me thrice in the last three days. Too much.

CocaCola is number one. Followed by Pepsi Light (actual Pepsi is nasty). Followed by water (or water comes first depending on situation.).

The thing all three drinks have in common is that they do not leave behind an aftertaste.

Overall I aint really very experimentative (that a word?) with food, I avoid tasting new things in fear that I will hate it.[/quote]

I’m very open to different types of food as I get bored very quickly….I’ve had my eye on Sushi for some time now, but haven’t as of yet found a partner who’d be willing to try it with me…

My grandad has five/six sugar's in his tea, in a small tea cup, which he drinks about twice a day...it always surprises me how healthy he is.[/quote]

I love sushi! Try to convince your parents or siblings to go because it's definitely worth it - the rolls are the absolute best... I got something a little while ago with tuna salmon and avacado it was delicious.

If you like fish you'd love it[/quote]

This might be something that I'll end up trying alone...

Is there specific type of sushi you'd recommend? The main ingredient is just raw fish isn't it?

i love tuna its tastes great especially on sandwiches lol

Also with boiled potatoes and even with rice and with pasta, tastes great with whatever. Although i don't reccommend it you try it with you're cereal, that one didnt go too well :roll:

I hate fizzy drinks but i love exotic fruit juices like mango, lychee, guava, gunanabano, blackcurrent, apple, water melon (i love that one). I also like vegetable juice drinks that you can blend at home such as carrot, tomatoe.

Although i strongly don't reccommend that onion smootie that was just wrong.

Well it depends on the menu, I would recommend anybody just starting it to avoid anything with softshelled creatures, and to stick to rolls (like california or the house spider roll, (there aren't any spiders in it))

One of my favorite sushi spots in London is a place called "Zuma" sort of near harrods and luck has it that they have a website http://www.zumarestaurant.com/ with their menu, prices and address. I HIGHLY recommend their "califorinia maki" and "dynamic spider roll," they're pretty much as good as anybody elses california or spider roll BUT the avacado and chili sauce addition just works great for some reason.

The other reason you would probably like it is that it's one of the few sushi spots in London (along with Mitsukoshi) that's still a sitdown restaurant/ actual sushi BAR, rather than one of those idiotic conveyer belts (my OCD can't handle that). But if you can handle the conveyer belt style Kulu Kulut is pretty damn good too, the prices are a lot more reasonable than Zuma or Mitsukoshi.

Don't pass up Zuma because of the prices though - it's fantastic and well worth waiting for if needs be.

Although sushi is good you still have to be careful as the rice that its served with can sometimes be marinated with Saki (alcoholic beverage usually wine).

Best to ask before hand.
