Thai rolled ice cream is also known as stir-fried ice cream because of how it is prepared. This is a popular treat in Thailand, Malaysia, Cambodia and the Philippines, where it is often sold by street vendors.

Thank you! I am happy to see different establishments representing immigrants’ heritage. So far, we’ve seen lots of restaurants, some churches, grocery stores, ice cream places, a rug (kilim) store in Spain, and now a record store.

The Xi’an area of north central China is probably best known for the terra-cotta warrior statues, but the meat buns from that region are yummy too!

Their naan must be delicious! I loved when my parents took me and my siblings to the country on the weekends. Our aunt would bake fresh bread for us in tamdyr. Tamdyr is tandoor in my native Turkmen language.
