Why are Asian restaurants so stingy with their rice these days?

The Thai restaurant gave me a gigantic container of curry and a tiny little container of rice. And I paid $2 for extra rice. My local Chinese joint pulls the same shite. Commie assholes.

A little rice can go a long way.

I haven’t noticed this at all in Baton Rouge. I still get giant containers of rice packed so tightly that it explodes into double the volume as you scoop it out.

Confucius say, mad who run in front of bus get tired. Man who run behind truck get exhausted.


That's really the only thing Asian I could think of as a reply.

When you get a lot of rice, two dishes can happen:
Stir fried rice (a couple of eggs, some left over meat, a sliced onion, a green onion also sliced, some soy sauce and some sesame oil)
Peruvian style soltado. Rice, reheated french fries, chicken or beef, sliced purple onion, a couple of tomatoes, soy sauce, etc.

Depending on which rice they are using most rice comes from right here in the US.
