The most serious business for Thai people is Eating!
“nai nam mi pla, nai na mi khao (In the water there is fish. In the field there is rice)”
A quotation from King Ramkhamhaeng’s inscription virtually defined the natural resources of Thailand. There is plenty of food for everyone because Thailand is an agricultural country. Most Thai people are farmers and a big part of the nation’s income comes from farming. There is a wide range of fruits and vegetables which grow abundantly in all regions of Thailand. I would love to recommend you to go around in fresh markets especially in the morning. You will be fascinated and excited with all kind of fresh exotic fruits & vegetables, fresh seafood and meats, different kinds of fresh herbs. I love to go around and buy ready-made dishes and/or ingredients for my own cooking at these amazing places. It feels so lively there and everything is so fresh and the great quality if you got the eye for it, can you imagine what awaits you when you go there to shop. Another reason is the excellent prices.
For someone who don’t like to cook or don’t have time for it. Not too worry Thailand always have different kinds of food from all corners of the world avaliable in all price levels to choose from almost 24-7 on your request. The cost of living in Thailand is very low and reasonable. So you can feel like a king or queen while staying with us in Thailand.
In general, Thai people eat in small portions with a lot of fresh vegetables and salads. It is very different if I would compare with serving size of food in many european countries and in America. But in the morning some foreigners might be surprised becuase many Thai kick start the morning with a quite heavy menu such as sticky rice with fried chicken, fried noodle and so on.
Meal times is consider to be a good time for hanging out and catching up with friends and family in Thai culture. We talk and enjoy eachothers company during these times. In the traditional way, we always serve different kinds of menus in the middle of the table along with common spoons in each dishes. So we could take some food from the middle of the table with common spoons into our own dish. It is a nice way if you could take some food and serve to some of people who you are eating with.
Be my guest. Let’s get into serious business…
