RichM A nong is a Chinese peasant/farmer, so while I may be many unsavoury things, a ‘nong’ would be a somewhat off the mark description.

      Careful Rich, there’s room in Dave n Derm’s SEX CONTAINER for more than one!

          Mad_Cyril why do you think I was poking the beast, I want in on the SEX CONTAINER!!

            SEX CONTAINERS is the name of the restaurant I’m going to open in Shanghai’s old port.

              bosstrabs Surely they need to bite the bullet and get some pfizer out there. Or at least Covishield from India.

                LOL @ the Chinese importing anything from India.

                Totally politically unacceptable, an admission that the dark-skinned, hated Indians are technologically superior.

                You have to realise that in the East Asian mind, dark skin is inextricably linked with inferiority, being a peasant, dirtiness, lack of development. The vast majority, except the most enlightened and cosmopolitan ones will never see anyone with brown skin or their countries as an equal. Those aren’t my opinions, I very much like most Indians I’ve met in all honesty.

                The Chinese only grudgingly tolerate us round eyes from the USA, Britain, France and Germany because they like the look of light skin and we are still more technologically advanced. Oh, and the Spanish and the Italians because they have ‘good food’ apparently (basically because they use rice and noodles). That’s about it.

                  bosstrabs The dark skin inferiority complex in ingrained in Indian culture as well. The slit eyes equally bad, given how “North East” Indians and Nepalis are treated.

                  Spanish get the pass because of “good food”? Yikes. Bar is low.

                    In what parallel universe is Spanish cuisine shit Rhouses?

                    Last time I checked, San Sebastian has the highest concentration of Michelin stars in the world for its population for starters.

                      Chinese view of food is basically:
                      French = don’t really like it but makes you seem wealthy and sophisticated
                      Spanish/Italian = good
                      Thai/Japanese/Vietnamese = good, but it’s Chinese originally anyway
                      American = convenient
                      Everything else = inedible

                        bosstrabs Never been to Spain, but I’m yet to meet someone (at least from India) who has eaten well out there on a holiday. The general consensus for the tapas experience is that it’s mostly oily, flavorless and hardly filling.

                        Having said that, some of the best food I’ve ever eaten was in Portugal.

                            Lol at Spanish food not having flavour. A lot of Indians think turmeric is just for colour, so maybe it’s just that you guys use so many ingredients you can’t taste anything when there are only a few.

                              bosstrabs Isn’t it just putting off the inevitable though once they ‘open the gates’?

                                BlainSA I mean sure there is paella and chorizo… but I mostly associate Spanish food with olives soaked in garlic infused olive oil and not much else.

                                    rhouses olives soaked in garlic infused olive oil

                                    That’s what you have with your beer pretty much anywhere in the Mediterranean, Rhouses. Only an appetizer.

                                        BlainSA Like to think I have a pretty worldly taste in food. And Spanish would struggle to even make Top 10 Nation in my list of culinary bangers.
