at my home we don't usually eat at the dinner table like the americans. i think is a habit but we sit on the floor by the tv in the family room surrounded by a little round short, i don't know what it is call but it looks like a big tray with legs

just wanted to know how you eat with other people, family, friends, gathering

hehehe yeah, my family eat the same way as your family. yeah...that big tray is called "pa kow" or "ka thoke." Ummm...but it really depend on our mood. if i eat alone, i usually eat on the table. If my family is home to eat with me, then we use the pa kow. most of my friend's family eat like us too.
I don't know. I'm just glad that we kept our tradition even though we are in a america.

we eat on the table, unless there is just too many people then we'd eat on the floor, but that's a very slim chance because we don't really get much visitors, if we do we go eat upstairs at my aunt's house lol :D

that was sooo ironic, i saw the question, n i just instantaneously responded that "i eat in my bed" then all of a sudden i read the comment right above, n lek's like "omg u eat in ur bed too??" :lol:

hhahha yeah, i'm a lzy ass, if i don't eat in bed, then i sit out on my balcony bathing in the sun to eat my food or on the lawn outside when it's warm n beautiful. i luv a 1-womyn picnic.

thats how we eat my mom house. she has a pa kow that everyone sits around to eat. or she has this lil table that she lays out food on and we put all the dishes on top of that and sit around it. she has a dining room table but the thing is, is that it doesn't get used. haha we just like eating it like in the olden days

i eat any chicken with sticky rice. love it! the rice is like the filler or else i won't get full. tum muk hoong goes with any fried chicken. we always have these 2 together too.

Wow... lol, I didn't know my KFC brand would be on most posts let alone tum mak hoong.

I like to eat tum mak hoong with either those fried pork skins or mak ka tin (those leaves that looks like peas, if its ripe, you can peel them and eat them... but your breathe will smell)

When i go to my parents house, we always eat on the floor. My parents hate sitting at the table, although they have one in the dining room just for show, hahaa! But when i'm at my house, i always eat at the dining room table or sometimes on the coffee table right in front of the T.V.

yes like some of u guys said; when there's many people visiting or eating then eating on the floor is likely to happen. awww and the best is probably when u eat panh. depending on if ur comfortable or not...

I love to eat on the pa kao on the floor with my kids! I'm trying to teach them our traditions and customs because i don't want them to NOT know our culture when they are older. right now, they can't even sit indian style or the proper way a female is supposed to sit at the pa kao or in a WAT, comfortably. lol I know they feel uncomfortable sitting with their legs tucked under them and they move around a lot. but i'm determined to get them used to it. :lol: I like how close we all are, literally, around the pa kao. :)
