March News from Asian Food and Cookery
Hi everyone
I suddenly realised that among all the articles on Asian Food and Cookery, I hadn't yet found anything to publish on Korean cookery, so I did some research and came up with the article which follows.

Happy cooking!

Chinese Dining Guide by Jee Hui Poh
As a Chinese saying goes, "When going to an eating house, go to one that is filled with customers." A good rules of thumb for choosing the right Chinese restaurants to dine is if the restaurant isn't packed with customers during dinner time, chances are it's not worth a try.
Tasty Thai Food - Spicy, Salty, and Sour by Aleck Mann
Food is like a drug. How true is that? This is especially true for me when it comes to Thai food. Once I get started on any Thai dish, I get addicted to more of the same. But hey, there has to be worse addictions that good food right? Some culinary writers describe Thai food as being similar to Chinese food but with a sting.
