I have to admit when I first came here I went a bit crazy with all the new sights and smells and basically lived off the stuff from the small restaurants and street stands. Obviously I came round to the obvious safety issues though whenever I walk home from school I pass a whole line of street food stands that gets me tempted. The problem is, they usually taste pretty nice but I don't know how many years I'm knocking off my life if I eat them!
Almost daily for me
There is no Starbucks, KFC or McDonalds where i live
All i have is local restaurants and street stands, so unless i cook then street it is.
Never ever. You need courage and I'm just a coward.
I go to the street bbq about once a week when the weather is warm. I know that its not the safest health wise, but it is an awesome place to hangout with friends over some nice cold beers.
I used to go get some bbq maybe 3 times a week but now I never do. Haven't for maybe 6 months. I've seen a lot of things and now I just don't have the drive to eat it anymore.
Not a bad idea! I've got a week off, so maybe get my wife to treat me (with my money) to a street BBQ, there are two just outside our apartment complex and at this time of year the beer is usually still cold.
Street food is always worse choice. I only have got twice when I was in University.
Regularly. As I have said many times my only rule is that there are plenty of locals buying.
Just today I had some fish tofu, mushrooms and assorted other things which I don't even know what they are. They are on skewers when cooked and then you just push them off into a cardboard bowl of broth and pick them out 1 by 1 with a skewer. Also like the pork, beef , lamb and chicken BBQ, some of the eggy pankake things, noodles of various kinds etc.
