A Taste of Thai Food...

sawasdee kha...

Salaam,

Just came back from another invitation from one of our close friends from ASEAN. The Thai Ambassador and his lovely lady Madam M.L. Chiravattana Israbhakdi had just hosted a buffet dinner to introduce and promote the famed and exotic selection of Thai cuisines and sweets. Hence the informal garden party was dubbed as "A Taste of Thai Food."

Being accustomed with Thai cuisines and cultures after almost five years of living in Thailand, we have no difficulty whatsoever in finding our way and choosing the almost very familiar dishes and sweets prepared so meticulously and elegantly by our Thai friends. But still we could never get enough to choose from the wide array and variety of delectable and delicious Thai dishes on display.

The green curry, the sweet and sour 'Pla kapong,' the 'Som Tam' and not to mention the ever popular 'phat Thai Talay' and 'Tom Yam Goong' really bring back the nostalgic feeling and aura of our good old days in the 'Land of the Smile.'

Well-done and many congratulations to our dear Thai colleagues and all our Thai friends for kindly organising the most unforgettable evening and for the very gracious invitation. Khrap khun ma kha...

Wassalam.
