I am completely, hopelessly in love with Thai food. The soups, the curries, the desserts. The uniquely delicate blends of tastes and heat that you just don’t find outside the country. I could happily survive on a diet of khao soy and mango sticky rice. I never would, of course, because that would mean missing out on all the other incredible options that are served up on the streets and in the restaurants every day.
I can’t identify many of the things I put in my mouth here, but it really doesn’t matter. I know they’re going to be wonderful. They always are. My stomach is crying already.
