Some people may be wondering what 'SAHM SAHM but different' actually means.
"Same same" is an English saying that Thai people use, and it's used like this.
'So...zucchinis and courgettes - are they different?'
'No, same same.'
'OK... what about oranges and mandarins?'
'Ah...same same - but different.'
And of course SAHM stands for Stay At Home Mum.
Last night we went to Thai on the River for Jules's birthday, which was pleasant enough except that I had to ask three times for more water before any arrived. This affected my enjoyment a LOT as I was in the middle of a very hot curry at the time!
The whole experience made us appreciate our local thai place, Spicy Basil, even more than we already do. For a start, they make everything fresh in front of you, mains cost £4.20 and they're happy to do a pad thai without peanuts on request. And the food is just so good - far and away better than Thai on the River, which is a lot more expensive and doesn't provide as quick and friendly service.
So yay for Spicy Basil, the Queen of Kilburn High Road!
