Today is Friday. This marks the first day I am joining Food Trip Friday. To be a member, just post any food photo and talk briefly about it, and then share the link in the FTF website by FickleMinded and in Facebook.
Thai food is well-known all over the world. It is really delicious, spicy or not. For me, having some spicy taste is better. It takes some time to get used to but once you've tasted the spiciness, your tongue will always long for that taste. This photo was taken in one of the roadside restaurants where we stopped for lunch. The fried fish (pla too) always comes with the side dish of steamed and raw vegetables (cucumber, brinjal, cha-um omelet, winged beans, etc.) and the chilli and shrimp paste dip. The one in the lower right is called 'ho mok', which is a mixture of fish (esp. snakehead), vegetables, spices and coconut milk. It is wrapped in banana leaves and steamed. Similar to bibingka but this is eaten with rice not as a snack. Topped with thin slices of chilli and some green leaves.
