Thais love food, is everywhere. No matter where you are in Thailand, is almost always on foot, foodstuffs. In many western countries, have to drive miles to find something to eat, but here is everywhere. Restaurants, food stands with wheeled vehicles, sidecar set up restaurants, mini bikes, food markets, food stalls, mobile food vendors, grocery stores, supermarkets ... Find yousomething to eat, regardless of time of day or night.
Eating in Thailand is so important that a common way to greet someone "Have you eaten?" You see people eating in public, anytime and anywhere. The food is not a private matter.
oWesterners going to be in a nature park, Thais go to a park for a picnic.
oWesterners go to the beach for swimming and sunbathing, Thais go to sea to eat and drink.
Thais oWhen, all excursions in the countryside,always take a basket with food and drink.
Have you been asked the United States ever, if you are in foods such as Americans? Probably not, because nobody really matter what food you like. Have you ever been to England, asking if you enjoy English food? Probably not, because nobody is interested in your culinary tastes.
But in Thailand, you will find countless times asking if you like Thai food. If you come across a Thai, it is likely that in the firstfew minutes of conversation, you must answer this question. If you do you say, you're going a bit 'more acceptable. If you indicate you like spicy food, move your head even more acceptance. But if you say you're not really so much about Thai food, people are confused and wonder, and wonder why you came to Thailand and then.
We just had 22 Annual Food Festival here in Chiang Mai. It is a huge, weekEvent with hundreds of food stalls and thousands of visitors throng the area every night. This is a huge stage with all kinds of entertainment, speeches, bands and dance performances. Thais love a good party. The food is incredibly varied and it seems that the eyes are an endless variety of different dishes, most of your IT prepared before.
Thais do not eat like Westerners. They have not drawn-out seating meal with appetizer, salad, main dish,Dessert and coffee. Meals usually consist of a plate of food, time is quickly eaten, but not too ready a.
Unlike western restaurants where you can order your meal, 20 or 30 minutes, in Thailand most of the dishes can be created literally within minutes. Thais do not eat large meals, but frequent small meals throughout the day.
The Thai people are very attached to their food, and do not take easily to international cuisine. When travel outside Thailand, often their biggest challenge is not able to eat in Thai.
Eating in Thailand is cheap, convenient and fun. Imagine walking and took a freshly squeezed orange juice with a quick "Pad Thai" spaghetti for $ 0.50, enjoy a local sweet, fresh coconut juice drink, eat a sweet potato or steamed dumpling bean blacks, all rights available on the open road or in a market - on foot. No wonder> The food here is so important!
