Took out my mom and brother to a nearby Malaysian restaurant recently and we ended up ordering three roti canai appetizers because they couldn't get enough of it. In our defense, they were fairly small portions
Thank you for the brilliant TR and I'm glad that you're still posting TRs on FT. Turkmenistan is on the top of my bucket list and thanks to you, I might splurge for Yyldyz Hotel even if I normally travel el cheapo. North Korea is also on my bucket list so the strange architecture and emptiness will be a decent substitute for Ryugyong Hotel (even if it's unlikely that it'll be open by the time I eventually get there).

Sounds like my kind of place! Honesty, my takeaway from 195 countries is that most of the world is too darn hot!
I don't know, from my ERJ the plane looked YOOOOOOOGE!
It was delicious...and addictive! Kind of reminded me of Pillsbury Crescent Rolls...only better!
