Botanic Garden and Inedible “Curry“

I’m having trouble remembering the events of today. I think we went to the Botanic Gardens in Sydney, to my Thai dessert place, and then had dinner at yet another Thai restaurant (I really should go to Thailand… 😄).

What I do remember clearly is the so-called curry we ordered there. It turned out to be an incredibly spicy bowl of soup (I specifically said “mild“ when I ordered it) containing chicken cartilage and various other generally inedible scraps. It looked very authentic — just not like something we would ever have ordered had we known what it was going to look (or taste) like.

Timo did a pretty admirable job eating at least some of it. I, on the other hand, was completely defeated by both the spiciness and the textural surprises and barely touched my food.

What a disappointment. 😅Read more
