Much improved from my OP. Today I had a leftover grilled hellfire porkchop with Huy Fong chili garlic sauce.

Today I had _rotewurst mit brot und senf_ and a “small”\* mixed salad with potato salad and two glass of Pils.

Dinner was even better.

\*small as in “what a freakin’ huge side salad!”

My wife, a friend of hers, and I went to a joint called “Jeng Chi Restaurant”.

We got:

Green onion pancakes  
Hot & Spicy wontons  
Boiled pork & napa cabbage dumplings  
Small & Juicy dumplings  
Pot stickers

I got pork & mustard tuber soup, and the two of them got egg drop soup.

Quite a good lunch, that’s for sure.

Sunday morning, and for lunch we’ll be ordering delivery from the restaurant in our compound. I already know it will be _phat kraphao kai sai khai dao_ for me. That’s minced chicken with basil, rice and a fried egg. The wife’s not sure; maybe some noodles, like _rat na_, where the noodles come in this rather thick broth. We have some sweetened, sticky _mee krawp_ for a side snack. Maybe some Pringles thrown in. They have some new Pringles here that we picked up yesterday, something called Pringles Extreme. Dill Pickle and Buffalo Wings flavors. The wife really likes Pringles, and this kind is completely new.
