minus-squareDeceptichum@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up18·7 months agoSuch an odd way to hear people talk about food. I’d never consider food to be “switchable”, let alone think another culture does it “better”. Like there’s so much diversity between Indian/Thai, on a dish by dish basis no country is better.

I’m honestly at a loss how someone wouldn’t be able to understand that… Not sure I understand why you think a Thai restaurant would be making Indian food or vice versa. Obviously they’re not making the same dishes, but that’s like insisting no one can prefer clam chowder to tomato soup because it’s not the same dish
