What would you choose?

We went to a mall yesterday, because we needed to get out of the house and my wife was unable to control her shopping addiction. :laugh: :laugh:
For me and my son, the trip was as exciting as a visit to a cemetry, so we wandered off to find somewhere to eat, and ended up here.
Chicken potstickers for the lad, and Thai chilli shrimp for me. OK, I suppose, but the "Thai chilli shrimp" were about as "Thai" as my grandma's knickers.
They were yummy, as far as breaded, deep-fried shrimp are concerned, but I don't get "Thai" served with aioli and I don't get "Thai" without chiles, lemongrass, basil, galangal, and fish sauce.
What's your choice?

I hear ya. Nothing looks outstanding. I guess I'd try the chicken tacquitos.

Usually, any time someone says they don’t like something that’s generally popular, it just turns into, “Oh yeah, well let me just convince you, then!” and it goes downhill from there, so thank you very much for that.

Nah, I'll eat mac & cheese, nothing wrong with that. I make it (occasionally) at home.
It's just that I like my pasta on its own. Never, ever, ever as a "side"dish.

That was in response to TastyReuben, my dear! He definitely does not love macaroni and cheese and has joked about it a time or three (everyone wants to convert him because their mac n cheese "is the best" LOL). I think he would probably eat it if it was served to him to be polite, but not something he loves!

I will occasionally eat it as a side, but more often we have it baked with a base of chicken and topped with bacon and a bit of panko. I don't use a roux when I make mine, I use heavy cream, plus smoked gouda, gruyere, cheddar, and whatever else I might have on hand that will work. It often is a 5-cheese mac n cheese...
