Thai food.....


Traditionally Thai food is eaten sitting on the ground or the floor, sharing common dishes. Here I'm enjoying Vietnamese spring rolls at an outdoor sala by a small, man made lake. We later ate barbequed fish that had once been swimming by our sala, papaya salad (called somtam), sticky rice and larb (spicy minced pork). The fish comes whole, but I've mastered getting the meat off without eating skin, bones or anything else that doesn't particularly interest me. I also consume lots of fruit here, with pineapple and papaya on the top of the list.
