Stopped off at Sense of Taste in beautiful Gallatin, Tennessee, to try an Italian twist on an American classic.
The Tuscan burger was one of the most unique ideas for a burger I’ve seen in a while, and I was apprehensive that it would lean more toward “Ameritalian” cuisine by just throwing mozzarella and marinara sauce on top of a beef slab with a side of mozzarella sticks, but was pleasantly surprised.
Featuring roasted pepper mayo, pancetta, truffle mushrooms, provolone cheese, and bruschetta on a softly toasted bun, this sandwich perfectly delivers the taste of a home-grilled, wood-smoked burger while providing an authentic Italian taste which evokes the feeling of enjoying charcuterie and wine on a romantically lit patio at sunset in central Italy. A drizzle of balsamic perfectly balances the smoky flavor of the meat by adding a delightfully sweet tang that you would have never imagined you needed on a burger. Long story short, you can tell this menu was curated by a chef with a deeply inspired palate.
The Parmesan truffle fries were offered in a unique shape, which is always a fun surprise. Their flatness made it perfectly easy to scoop up some of their house-made ketchup, which is a must-have. The flavor of ripe summer tomatoes is prevalent but not overpowering in this bespoke take on a classic sauce. Offsetting the sort of intense saltiness of the fries, this ketchup makes a harmonious pairing that your tastebuds will thank you for.
(Not pictured: the tomato basil soup, which was every bit as fresh and tasty as everything else on the menu.)
For those not into burgers, this place also offers an array of creative takes on chicken dishes and hot dogs that are sure to leave you content and smiling without feeling weighed down by heavily greasy, salty food.
All of this is served in a relaxed atmosphere where you can scroll on your phone, catch up on emails, or strike up a conversation with regular customers and the family who operates this stellar business. This makes Sense of Taste not just a place to get a quick lunch or early dinner, but a reprieve from the fast-paced world of foodie culture where you feel right at home.
If you find yourself in the Nashville area with a little extra time on your hands, take the 20-minute drive out to this growing town and experience this hidden gem for yourself. You won’t regret it.

Hey, if your cat happens to love the churu squeezy cat treats, or similar equivalent, I'm here to tell you to just buy gerber ham or turkey baby food instead. It's less expensive and higher quality--it's human food grade--and the baby food is literally just pureed meat in water with cornstarch as a thickener. I use it for kittens that are struggling to maintain weight, and also as a special treat for Malice and Vice.
It shouldn't be a substitue for a good quality cat food, but if your cat is motivated by the churu treats, this is a better option in every regard.
Plus you get tiny glass jars.
Here's both items on amazon--the churu treats are $1.12 an ounce, the baby food is $.56 an ounce. You can probably find both of these in your local big box store, this is just for comparison.

I just cap the jar and stick it in the fridge, they don't get anywhere close to the whole thing in one go.
Edit to note: I say gerber specifically because it's unseasoned. You do NOT want to use a meat baby food that has onion, garlic, or any other kind of seasoning, that's very dangerous for both cats and dogs. Check the ingredients!

Dungeon Meshi modern au where both Laois and Falin are food vloggers. Laois is always travelling to remote areas and cultures to try the most "extreme" foods and bring them to light. He's known as the guy who will drink blood and slam a still wriggling bug just to comment on it's nutty flavor. Meanwhile Falin is visiting long-standing eateries and sharing the stories behind local cuisine.
Nobody actually puts together they're siblings (in part due to wildly different viewerbases) until Falin in one video mentions how she enjoys eating insects and the comment section is full of folks asking her to "collab with the bug guy". Her very next video is her and Laois smiling infront of a mukbang style platter of insects and she introduces him as her brother.

I figured I might as well make this a little blog series, since there will be more to address in upcoming episodes.
Before we dive into the nitty gritty... I really want to acknowledge the production value of The Loyal Pin and all the hard work that went into making it. The characters, the sets, the wardrobe, the dialect... everything was an honest representation of a historically accurate period drama. The first episode was perfectly curated to establish the series' universe. I was really impressed with Becky in particular because I've been following her since GAP, and I know how much she struggled with reacquainting herself to the language when she moved back home to Thailand from New Zealand. To have the added pressure of maintaining a period accurate dialect was not easy for her. Freen has proudly commented on how hard Becky worked to really learn the script... and it shows. Well done, Bec Bec!!!
Let's Talk Thai Culture...
We'll start off by breaking down Thai Royal Language Terminology (คำราชาศัพท์)
Tumblr media
The Savettavarit Royal House Consists of 1) His Royal Highness, The Prince Thai Royal Title: พระองค์ชาย (pronounced phra-ong chai) reserved for direct male descendants of the king
2) Her Serene Highness, Princess Alisa Thai Royal Title: หม่อมเจ้าหญิง (pronounced mom-jao ying) a non-inherited title for being the wife of a prince (abbr. M.C.)
3) His Serene Highness, Prince Anantavut Thai Royal Title: หม่อมเจ้าชาย (pronounced mom-jao chai) a title for male children of a prince, meaning secondary prince (abbr. M.C.)
4) His Serene Highness, Prince Anon Thai Royal Title: หม่อมเจ้าชาย (pronounced mom-jao chai) a title for male children of a prince, meaning secondary prince (abbr. M.C.)
5) Her Serene Highness, Princess Anilaphat Thai Royal Title: หม่อมเจ้าหญิง (pronounced mom-jao ying) a title for female children of a prince, meaning secondary princess (abbr. M.C.)
The Kasidit Noble Family Consists of 1) Her Serene Highness, Princess Pattamika Thai Royal Title: หม่อมเจ้าหญิง (pronounced mom-jao ying) a non-inherited title for being the 'adopted' sister of the prince (abbr. M.C.)
2) Lady Pilanthita Thai Noble Title: หม่อมราชวงศ์ (pronounced mom rat-cha-wong) a title assumed by 'commoner' children of หม่อมเจ้า (M.C.), meaning their ancestry can be traced back to a king (abbr. M.R.) The Common Address: You'll hear certain characters use the term ท่าน (pronounced than). It is the formal address between members of royalty/nobility to acknowledge certain members of higher rank. It essentially means "Your Highness". For example, regarding Princess Pattamika, Pin addresses her 'adoptive' mother (f.) as ท่านหญิง (than ying) and Anil refers to her 'aunt' as ท่านอา (than ah*). *อา (ah) is how one would refer to their father's younger sibling
Another term you might have heard was เพคะ (pronounced phe-kha). It is less formal and used to express familiarity. Both Prik and Lady Pin use this response to address Princess Anil as "Your Highness". Princess Alisa can also be heard using this phrase in conversation with, and to respond to, her husband.
She is considered a Noble 'Commoner', so Lady Pin would be formally addressed as คุณหญิง (khun ying) given her title. However, Pin is depicted as being more reserved and adherent to social structure. This is very telling of her social class amongst the higher ranking royal family who took her in. Pin has a lot more to lose than Anil should she stray from class expectations, and they did a wonderful job establishing that in the first episode. (I'm sure this will come into play even more as the characters age up... and I'm very much looking forward to it.)
Lower ranked servants/attendants (บ่าว - bao) can be heard using the term เจ้า (jao) to indicate their showing of respect when addressing someone of superior status.
Pronunciation and Formality: Without even knowing the Thai language, you might have noticed that the characters heavily enunciate their dialect when speaking. It's an accurate depiction of a "prim" and "proper" royal family. Even how Anil addresses her two brothers is very formal: พี่ชายรอง (meaning second eldest brother) and พี่ชายใหญ่ (meaning eldest brother). If you're going to do a period drama... this is how it's done!!!
Should we discuss the Thai dishes highlighted in this episode? ...Why not?
Tumblr media
สองมาลีลอยแก้ว (pronounced song mali loy kaew) is a Thai dessert comprised of watermelon and mamuang dong (มะม่วงดอง - pickled mangoes). The fruit is carved into floral shapes and arranged to "float" in sugar syrup with ice, hence its name... which literally translates to 'Two Flowers Floating in Glass'.
Tumblr media
นำ้ปลาหวาน (pronounced nam pla whan) is a Thai dipping sauce comprised of palm sugar, fermented fish sauce, shallots and chili. It's usually paired with firm and tart fruits... like green mangoes. (It's an acquired taste hehe)
Tumblr media
The last thing I wanted to mention are Thai night markets and fairs (ตลาดกลางคืน). They are still hugely popular for social outings and, like the series has shown, are comprised of various stalls offering street food, clothes, accessories, attractions, etc. They're very popular amongst tourists, as well.
I hope this wasn't too overwhelming with information... but I just wanted to be as thorough as possible because this series is shaping up to be, what is essentially, a love letter to Thai tradition.
