HelperElfMissy 42 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Nah not curly...my guess is the chef is a 50ish year old Asian male. Link to post Share on other sites
Thundercat 60 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 that makes me laugh! why asian? when i was younger i was convinced that greek chefs thought hair was a kind of spice... every time i ate greek i'd find a hair... i could really go for a good souvlaki right now!

HelperElfMissy 42 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 Dead straight, very thick, coarse black hair. Could have been another nationality possibly, but the likelihood given the look of the hair, is Asian descent. And the length too... was too long for your average skippy going grey - they tend to go the clippers. I should have kept the hair - taken a pic - and we could have had a good ol' debate about it ... but I sent it back to the kitchen with the rather understated comment "The beef cheeks were not all that good, but the hair was lovely."

thursday 1 Posted August 20, 2010 Share Posted August 20, 2010 of course it could also be that the chef was so into making the arrangement right that he lifted his arm to wipe the sweat off his brow and in doing so released an armpit sweaty hair. Nice On the other hand, he coulda been scratching below the belt. Link to post Share on other sites

muikabochi 208 Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 Lots of peanut butter here is sweet and more like a paste than chunky goodness. I know I always bring some of my fave back with me when I am back home/home. Link to post Share on other sites
Thundercat 60 Posted September 10, 2010 Share Posted September 10, 2010 Yeah, its more like peanut spread and it sucks!! Why the f@ck is it so damn sweet? Most shops that have foreign food carry it though so it's not impossible to find... but if you have one kind in particular that you like you'll probably have to bring it with you from back home.
