What part of Italy have you been to?

I've never been west  :(  The flight would be a bitch, and I can't be dealing with connecting flights again lol. 
Never been to Italy. I have been to Mexico, Spain, Morocco, Greece, New Zealand, England and France. The flight from London to LA is only 10.5 hours and customs doesn't take too long.

I like Chinese food, haven't sampled much Indian food so I'm not much help there.

My favorites are: hot & sour soup (normally something you either hate or love), shrimp or chicken lo mein, or potstickers (dumplings).

Italian food, I love.

I like Hot and Sour Soup as well in Chinese food, but I also like a lot of different Chinese dishes.  I have been ordering Mu Shu Pork, Happy Family, and Combination Fried Rice most recently from a local Chinese restaurant.

I like Indian buffets, so I can try a little bit of everything, but I especially like Naan, Tandoori Chicken, and Sag Paneer, which is seasoned spinach.  I'm not as fond of Indian food that is spiced very hot, like some of their Curries.

I'm not that familiar with the Indian cuisine but I love Chinese food. Chop suey, char siu with bakmi I usually order to take away. Egg rolls and egg foo young are nice too.

Am learning myself to properly cook Chinese more and more but still do not really get that same nice flavour/taste one gets when ordering the food in a restaurant.

Well i worked in an italian restaurant for 16 years - so am a bit fed up of it!

I would normally chose Chinese food over Indian and i like chinese curry.

I also like anything in black bean sauce,  egg foo yung,  fried crispy beef in chille,
and peking duck.

Cool.  Haha, well customs do take a long time when I arrive in the US, they do so much fucking about, with the finger prints and pictures.  One time they went through my whole suitcase.

I haven't traveled to Europe since the 1070's.  In 1976 for 6 weeks and 1979 for a summer.  In both instances whenever I was in German I had a constant craving for Chinese.  Thankfully they post menus outside in Europe.  I knew I was sunk when the menus were printed in Chinese and German.   :(

I prefer Indian to Chinese, but the closest good Indian food is in Baton Rouge (almost everyone says so).  There is a Sikh restaurant, but it is run by a very old couple, has 6 tables and outrageous prices. 

A good monarch is a treasure. A good politician is an oxymoron.

My brain is both uninhibited and uninhabited.

You should try cooking your own  :)

Yeah, that date was a major blooper.  

I need to clean the house and be able to get the kitchen in order so I can do the cooking I need to do.  I'm a slob and a hoarder par excellence, in the process of reforming.  I'd like to bake bread, make yogurt, cook ethnic foods, cook healthier, etc.  Today I feel like a sorry excuse for a human being, but hopefully tomorrow will be better.

There's no better time to start.  And thats the hardest part.  I used to be a hoarder too, but keeping things just so they can be caked in dust, doesn't do you any good.  Just make a start in one room, and work your way through.  I really enjoying doing all that kind of stuff, and getting things organised  :autism:  You should really have a go at cooking and baking that kind of stuff.  Its like forcing yourself to get started, but then it gets easier.
