Bangkok & Chopsticks

[MattyJ]

Thanks everyone for the info. If I run into any issues, I'll use the "spaghetti method" described earlier in the post by another board member.

Fork and spoon unless you have noodles. ‘Tis the way.

 

Yep the Thai's have this totally right. In the UK I'm now the guy asking for a spoon in Indian restaurants :lol:

I have been eating at various south east asian restaurants and faced many people staring at me for asking a fork and spoon. But i never mind and continue the way i am comfortable with. My Japanese friend can even pick single rice grain with his chopsticks. But now i am seriously inspired to use the chopsticks.

It is just practice. Chopstick for noodles and spoon for rice. I actually find it weird trying to eat noodles without chopsticks now.

I have taken lunch at small Thai restaurants or general eating places and love other unique ways. They keep lots of spoons and forks in a glass on the dining table. Water-mug, ice cubes, straws are provides separately and you have to mix it by yourself. This is very unique in Thailand.
