This will be the part 2 post about my recent trip to Thailand.
Opium, anyone???
Naah … Just kidding.
A trip to Thailand is never complete if you did not go for their local delicacies or food, whether is sold by the road side, road stall or on the road. Contrary to usual belief that road side food are not as good as those in air conditioned restaurants, the roadside food along the streets in Thailand are just the total opposite. Apart from that, they are cheap too. Damn cheap …… Sometimes I just wonder why they can keep their price so low even though their petrol price is at least double of what we have here (38.3 baht per litre, which is equivalent of RM3.80 per litre for RON95).
You’ll never get starved in Thailand because the streets are just abundantly packed with food. Note the word “abundant”. Grilled Pork, Meat Balls, Sausages, Dried Cuttlefish, Sticky Rice, Glutinous rice, Sweet deserts are just a damn small part of what you can get on a typical street.
What you see above are pineapples, ready to be “skinned” and eaten on the spot. Though it might look normal in the pictures but wait till you see the actual size at the pic below. It’s smaller than my palm but don’t let the look deceive you. This fruit is damn sweet and nice. And CHEAP!!!
Another one of my favorite is their sticky rice served with various kinds of toppings, notably mango, steam egg custard with coconut milk and etc. Priced at 5 baht, 2 packets of these can feed an adult.
Apart from these local delicacies, there are also various dishes that are pretty much can be found here in Malaysia. One of them is this :-
Chicken Rice …
This stall has really good business and the food taste nice also, and priced at RM2.50 per plate, with a complimentary soup.
For the dessert, this is one of the interesting ones …
Self-made Coconut flavored Ice Cream with real fruit chunks. Taste like heaven … LOL
Hungry now???
