I liked Satay in austin. Here in Dallas Bangcock Inn is just around the corner from me and they have this great garlic chicken thing I adore. Also Thai Soon here is good.

I came close to Thai food tonight but opted for Wheatsville instead.
The cashier told me they are having a profitable year. Part of Austin's
general boom right now.

Don't know what a tempi dish is, but for Thai food, the best I've found, surprisingly enough, is out right by my house in Cedar Park (suburb of Austin for you out-of-towners) on the southwest-ish corner of 183 and Buttercup Creek Blvd., called Poothai. Everything made from scratch, to order, by a real-live authentic Thai woman. MMMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, yummy! The Pork Larb (LOTS of cilantro), the Pad Woon Sen, and of course, the Pud Thai! wooeeeee!
They don't have a liquor license, though, so you's gotta bring yer own.

Every second Friday Mr. C. has a free day. Then we stick the kids in
their playgroup and spend the day together doing silly things and argueing. ha-ha!
On that day we always have lunch in this (for Zürich) sleazy little Thai Restaurant, called Ban Song Thai.
It's dirt cheap, you can get your own food from a buffet in the window, and
it's absolutely delicious.

When we were in Zurich, it was virtually impossible to get vegetarian food--we ate at the same fondue place every night!

Where did you go - Fribourger Stübli? Or the Chässtube?
I love both.
But you're right; it IS virtually impossible to get vegetarian food here. And when
you do find it, it's usually pretty appalling. Though, there's an indian restaurant
if you take tram 15 up the hill from Central to Bucheggplatz - they have some
wonderful vegetarian dishes there. I only discovered it about a month or so
ago, and quite by chance. Only took four years. Who knows in ten years'
time I might be able to name you another name!
I presume it's alot easier to find vegetarian restaurants over there. Where IS
over there? Are you in England or America, Autumn?

I can't remember the name of it, Riette, but it's near the Wasserkirche (the one with 2 towers) not far from the train station. I LOVE Indian food!!! I wish we'd known about that one, but...maybe next time! BTW, I live on the east coast of the US, in Maryland (near Baltimore, Philadelphia, and Wash DC). Ever been here?

The Chässtube then. Great place!
No, I've not been across. But my sister has been living just outside Boston
for three years now - she married an American guy. Unfortunately I've been
either pregnant, about to give birth, in labour or with small baby(s) the whole
time, so I've not had the chance to visit. I'd love to go, though. Her husband is
a truly nice man, so my limited impression of Americans is quite favourable.

In my limited travel (only the UK, France, Canada, and Mexico) I haven't
noticed that we're really much more or less terrible than anyone else...
But that's just my worthless opinion.

My elm skills are kinda rusty, but I think you can either type a period on a
line all by itself and then hit enter or type ^D (Ctrl-d), which should cause it to ask you if you want to: save file /tmp2358 or something like that.

Tell it y.

Then (I think) it'll give you several options, one of which is s)end message, so tell it s, and you missive will be merrily on its way.

I think...

I don't have a clue! My favourite Thai place only does the buffet thing. But there's a spicey chicken sauce, spicey, crispy fist nugget things, REALLY spicey chicken wings, fried vegetables, wonderful white rice, hot beef, nudles, great sauces, every day a different buffet. I'll send some along with your chocolate....
