Thai Food

Culture/ Language/Food/General Info/ Places to go

           Eating probably ranks as the favorite national pastime. This is evidenced by a popular greeting which translates roughly as "have you eaten yet." Thai cooking borrows from the culinary arts of Malaysia, Indonesia, India and China but the final product is truly unique and is regarded by many people to be among the best in the world. Thai food is generally cooked using fresh ingredients, herbs and spices to create flavorful and often spicy dishes. For eating out, Bangkok offers some of the best value in the world for both Thai and European fare. For the budget minded, the best value is provided by the many street vendors who operate from 2-wheel push carts. These "street kitchens" come complete with tables and chairs and offer delicious homemade specialties at unbelievably low prices. Typically, a full meal can be had for under 40 baht (US 1$) . By "going local", one could easily get by on a food budget of 100-200 baht per day.
