marinated mozarella is good too but for some reason, comfort food needs to warm for me to consider it comfort food. like gumbo. that is good. and not infested. |

Favorite Comfort foods:
1. Dan Dan Mian
2. Ma Jiang Mian
3. BBQ Pork Ribs
4. Roast Beef
5. Kringles & A Glass of Ice-Cold Milk
I have a really good Kringles recipe, but you need a freezer and an oven...
and who has an oven in Shanghai? |

mags: I wanted to say gumbo. I love cajun/creole food. But just didn't think it was readily available enough to qualify. But then again, I think the same applies for bagels.
Any place here in SH for good real bagels? |

izanami ... I make gumbo!!! I need two seasonings from the US which are not available here ...
I know we mentioned before, but let's get together and have some ... takes a while to make but it will be super warming during these cold days!!!
Bagels ... in a word, no. I wish there were! |

^yes Magnolia you can get some pretty good bagels from the Mediterranean Cafe and they deliver too I think.
I've also seen bagels fro sale in City Supermarket. So you may be in luck! |

the bagels from city supermarket are not good. i'm thinking of bagels from this place called Murray's bagels in Chelsea, NYC. All kinds of spreads, and a great variety of bagels...so good that they don't toast it (because it spoils the texture). firm on the outside and chewy on the inside. hhhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....
Mags: yes, sounds perfect. what do you need? i'm heading back to Singapore this CNY. I'm pretty sure I can get some stuff from Jason's (this international supermarket we have in Singapore).
I'm thinking of corn bread now. yumm....
And honestly, I think wine, bread, and cheese are quite comforting on a quiet weekend night. But they probably don't qualify. |

Oh yes all sorts of cheese and a good bottle of red wine, preferably from the fields of Nice is very nice, as dessert and as a moment to relax food.
Corn bread with turkey, hmmmmm |

I have eaten the bagels from City Supermaket for years and am in agreement with Izanami ... they are not quite up to snuff! More like bagel-shaped bread than a a chewy, crusty NY bagel!
Shall have to try those from Meditteranean Cafe ... they are kind of out there, aren't they? So delivery is good!!!
Corn bread ... think I have seen the mixes available here from time to time .... shall have a look next time i am shopping.
For the Gumbo ... I need thyme, cayenne pepper and a spice called Tony's Creole Seasoning. That may be hard to find, but I have a friend in the US right now and if I beg and beg, maybe he will bring me back some! Think I can get everything else here ... except andouille sausage, but that can be replaced with something else!
Looking forward to gumbo night!!!! |
