Like the fishing, dining out in Thailand is an experience not to be missed. Bangkok boasts some of the finest restaurants in the world, it really does have the most delicious cuisine you can possibly imagine. Many of the flavours found in Thai cuisine are created by ingredients that westerners just don't seem to use, but when they taste it they love it nevertheless.
Some Favourite Flavours and Ingredients are:
- Sweet. Created by palm sugar (from the coconut tree) and raw cane.
- Sour. From ingredients like tamarind and lime
- Spicy.From those indispensable and somewhat fiery Thai chillies and galangal. Most food is tamed down when ordered by a westerner so don't worry too much!
- Salty. From things like fermented fish sauce, which is delicious and tastes nothing like it sounds, through to soy sauce which is mainly used in chinese/laos style dishes.
- Rice. This staple food of the Thai people is like nothing you've ever tasted before in rice! It is a fragrant, flavoursome and revered throughout Thailand...with good reason.
- Noodles. Rice or wheat, thin or thick, boiled or fried...you choose. Delicious either way, handmade and fresh as a daisy.
- Vegetables. In Thailand these are always fresh! From familiar items such as beans, bean-sprouts, sweet pea, corn on cobs, through to less well known items such as "Pak Bun", Baby Aubergines and many many more.....all are delicious when prepared by Thai's
