Ah, Thailand<\/a>! That heavenly place bathed in sun and happiness all year round and the one destination you just have to visit. What makes it so popular? Well,\u00a0on one hand, it encompasses that never ending holiday vibe. I mean, with all that sunshine and those sandy beaches, who could really say otherwise?<\/p>\n

Then there’s the food. With so many possibilities and contrasting tastes, it’s really hard to pick just one dish. So, we asked our best Thailand\u00a0food bloggers about their all-time favourite dishes, so that next time you’re in Thailand, you’ll know what to\u00a0give a try.<\/p>\n

Tasty Khao Soi<\/h2>\n

\"khao<\/p>\n

The unique taste of Thai cuisine is in perfect balance between sweet, bitter, hot, sour and salty flavours. Most Thai dishes use Thai chillies, fish and shrimp sauces, coconut milk, Kaffir leaves and red and green curry pastes. This combination of flavours is what makes this cuisine so distinct.<\/p>\n

One of our favourite Thai dishes is Khao Soi, which is Northern Thailand\u2019s most famous dish. Khao Soi is a rich and spicy coconut milk based curry served with chicken or beef and two types of noodles: yellow egg noodles topped with crispy noodles.<\/p>\n

From the South of China, the dish made its way to Thailand with traders on their way to Myanmar. That\u2019s why it\u2019s only found in the north of Thailand. The main ingredients are\u00a0freshly made red curry paste, turmeric powder and curry powder. Read more about taking a Khao Soi Thai cooking class or get the recipe<\/a> to make it at home.<\/p>\n

Thai food is bold, pungent and very unique in flavour. When I think about Thai food, I see food stalls and colourful markets on the side of the road selling anything from fresh fruit and coffees served in plastic bags, to stir-fried noodles and briny seafood dishes. Going to Thailand for food is a culinary adventure. I lived there for about 6-8 months and kept discovering flavours I had never tasted before. What’s interesting about Thai food is that you can’t trust your nose to decide on what dish you should eat. Some of the stinkiest dishes I’ve smelled ended up being the greatest I’ve eaten in my life.<\/p>\n

And if you think you like spicy food, wait until you try what Thai people consider spicy. I still remember the first time I tried tom yum soup in Bangkok – I’m pretty sure I coughed out flames after my first sip! But what makes Thai food so unforgettable is the depth of flavour each dish delivers. And let’s not forget about the condiments! So many different sauces to try, pickles and other fermented foods to use as toppings or flavour enhancers. Whether you are eating sticks of green papaya dipped in chilli sugar or slurping a bowl of Thai pink noodle soup (yen ta fo), one thing is for sure; Thai cuisine will never leave you feeling unsatisfied!<\/p>\n

There are too many dishes to mention, but I do love their salads quite a bit. There’s something addictive about combining fresh and crisp fruits and vegetables with a dressing that’s pungent and tart – so delicious and refreshing! This may sound cliche but a good green papaya salad is hard to beat – especially when it’s topped with blue crab and plenty of Thai chillies.<\/p>\n

Since I have trouble finding green papaya in New York, I’ve created a similar version that I make with fresh mango and green apples.<\/p>\n
