Authentic stuff isn’t gelatinous, but MSG is king for sure. There’s probably more of it in “authentic” Chinese restaurants in China

Absolutely beautiful part of the world. Assuming the missus won’t let us emigrate, I’d definitely plan to retire around there.

Probably not, you’re definitely more of an expert on that than me. I spent many years spending lots of money on fancy restaurants though, and came to the conclusion that it just isn’t my thing.

Well it is in fact a small world!

Where you at now mate ?

Small country, certainly. I’m Brighton area at the minute, but I’ve also spent a bitnof time around Bristol, Cheltenham, Ashford and a few smaller places inbetween

@simo74

Authentic Chinese food definitely isn’t for everyone.

And oil. Lots of oil.

I’m from St.Albans originally but have spend time in a few places before moving down under. I have family in Seaford and spent a fair bit of time down in Pevensey when I was a kid. Good memories.

My dad’s from Hunan province. Any dish not drowned in oil and pumped with sodium isn’t a dish.

The “low sodium” version of their favorite condiment has 5000+ mg sodium/100g

Seafords a nice place, I work pretty close to there in Saltdean at the minute.

I think down under is definitely one I might be able to get past the missus, when we first met we planned to do a working holiday down there together and it’s been off and on the table ever since, until the sprogs came along.

You’re Adelaide area, right?
