I felt mostly well this morning, save some sore legs and butt from the gardening the day before. Hubby was kind enough to go with me to an Asian grocery store downtown. Unfortunately, it was a bit of a disappointment. The place was small, and the supply of Chinese groceries was limited, save the really general stuff. Czech Republic's small Asian minority population are more from Southeast Asia, particularly Vietnam. They had a number of Korean products, too. Of the things I wanted, there were Korean versions only, and all had garlic in them, which Hubby is allergic to. I'm much more of a Sinophile, I confess, having lived and traveled in China (or Taiwan), in the past.
We went to a big mall afterwards. They had a food court, which had one option with sort of Chinese-like dishes. I didn't know it when I ordered it, but my dish was super spicy hot. Hubby tried it and could barely eat it. I, on the other hand, really love spicy food. However, my recently sensitive stomach didn't like it at all. Alka-Seltzer called out to me, yet again.
