Variety here is in abundance, from popular dishes like Pad Thai and Green Thai chicken Curry (Gaeng Keow Wan Kai) to Isaan (northeast region of Thailand) favourites like Som tum (Spicy green Papaya Salad) to my favourites Spicy Mango Salad and Tom Yum Goong (Spciy Shrimp soup)
“Did you know Som Tum is originally a Laos dish? However now a staple dish in Thailand, depending on where you get it from can be spicy or very spicy, it also has a smell which at first is quite strong and potent which comes from the sauce or juice used to cover the salad..”
