Do You Know How To Eat
Thai Food ?

If your recipe calls for peppers and you forget to add them to the pot, Don't think about preparing them in the microwave or you will have an experience that you will never forget. The peppers will release a gas similar to what is found in pepper spray, and will fill the room when you open the microwave oven door.

Can I Believe Your Restaurant Rating System?

We take pride in our restaurant rating system and do our best to assure customers that we provide current & accurate information. Our reviews include a complete range of restaurants and some are listed because they're simply very good restaurants that offer a great value, while others offer an elegant dining experience & delicious cuisine or both. We do not fill our reviews with sugar coating that says any restaurant is or serves the best anything. Nor do we use outrageous descriptions of restaurants, such as, New Babylonian ambiance, the Parisian chic atmosphere, etc. It's not easy to navigate the maze of conflicting advice but we will not rate a restaurant with a 9/10 unless it is deserving.

Traveling To Paradise

Millions of people venture to the Lanna Kingdom every year, for leisure & business. For many, a little bungalow with a slow moving ceiling fan on a beautiful beach at Koh Chang or Samui is what they have been dreaming of for months or even years. While others may prefer the rugged quest of mountainous terrain in search of a hidden Buddhist temple and yet some may enjoy being pampered to in a luxurious five star hotel in central Bangkok.

Take a trip on a beautiful boat cruise on the Western Seaboard and discover beaches & scenery that is unspoiled and unseen by many or travel the infamous Chao Phraya river from Bangkok to Ayuttaya. Thailand is a major business hub in southeast Asia. Not only because it produces a wide range of goods, but also because it has the infrastructure that business people need.

Come and enjoy Thai cuisine for its bursting natural flavors and the vast wealth of fine cuisine that has developed here as a result of many fine chefs leaving their homeland & settling in Thailand, plus some of the finest
chefs in the world either work or are guest chefs at some of the
most infamous hotels & resorts found anywhere in the world.

CHOPPED LIVER AINT THAI

Our front page usually doesn't have information regarding  recipes or explaining what or how a particular type of dish of Thai cuisine is made but the other day I was in an upscale hotel in Bangkok and overheard a gentleman at the table next to me say "Chopped Liver, is that something the Thais eat all the time? yuk." I couldn't help but intervene in the conversation after I heard his dining partner, respond with "Ya man, I think it is some kind of pork liver soup"

I had to politely explain to these two gastronomic experts that it is a common dish of Jewish cuisine made with chopped chicken livers and onions sautéed, sometimes with beef liver, chicken fat (schmaltz), eggs, and salt & pepper to taste. When finished it is like a spread that is often put onto a bagel to be eaten sandwich-style. Their response "Oooooh right"

Have you ever wondered about the origin of that towering, billowy (and slightly ridiculous) white hat worn by chefs all around the world? Chefs have played an important role in society since the fifth century B.C., but the hats didn’t begin to appear in kitchens until around the 18th century A.D. The toque is said to be of Greek origin; many famous Greek cooks, to escape persecution, sought refuge in monasteries and continued to practice their art. The chefs donned the tall hats traditionally worn by Orthodox priests, however, to distinguish themselves from their fellows, they wore white hats instead of black. The custom eventually was adopted by chefs from Paris to Peking.

This doesn't taste like chicken ...well, it's not,
its Duck!
