Tales from Thailand 2
Finished!
My boss, Ate Yna, and I can finally breathe a sigh of relief. Lest you think that I am in
Katie Holmes might have her Tom Cruise, but I have my Tom Yum
Presenting to you the most delicious food in the world (drum roll, please), Tom Yum! This is my fourth serving of the famous dish since we flew in last Sunday. I’m considering buying Tom Yum mix from the supermarket tomorrow just so I could try to duplicate the experience when I return home.
Mirror, mirror on the wall
How many are there of you all in all?

Tonight we ate inside the market near the port. While waiting for our meal, I looked to my right and looked at the sunset
I better turn in now. Big day tomorrow. Chatuchak, the biggest outdoor market in

Wow, I'd love to see pictures of your "tour" in Thailand. Were you allowed to take pics inside the Grand Palace? Or nasira ang shots niyo with all the mirrors? See you next week!
Now, I know Tom Yum is your favorite. Obvious ba? Is Tom Yum in Thailand hotter? I don't recall ordering one when I was in Bangkok years ago.
Hi Ben, yeah, will show you the pics at the office. Allowed naman to take pictures, and the mirrors are not really that big. Maliliit lang. Jaw-dropping talaga ang structures inside the Grand Palace.
Hi A, the Tom Yum's definitely hotter in Thailand. Thanks to your blog and recommendation, I decided to give Tom Yum a serious "look" (taste is more like it):). Every meal I had there was good. Now, I'll be on the lookout where to find equally-tasty Thai dishes in the Phils.
Hey Beng, the Thais, I'm sure, were over the moon when they found out you loved Tom Yum, its the national favorite, second only to the KING. Hehehe. You can buy Tom Yum Mix here, too, even green curry or pad thai mix..:)
I've been eating a lot of Thai food recently because there a lot of Thai restos/eateries near my current office and they're the only ones in the area that's close enough to Filipino food.
hi miss beng, i like the way you wrote about your trip. ;-)
maybe i should visit thailand someday and try tom yum.
(the first thai food i have tried is like fried rice with their kind of bagoong alamang, a bit spicy. (i forgot the name))but it was really delicious.
i'll be in Makati dec 18-21, and would be staying in Oakwood. i don't know if i wud have enough time to see you.. but sure, id love to meet you again. ;-)
I missed a chance to go to Thailand 6 years ago. My passport was not processed due to my BC's lack of NSO certification. I only found out later.
So now, hanggang dry Thai massage lang.
Hi Swipe,
Is the Thai food in Oz any good? Or before you got there, did you have any particular liking for this kind of food? You must be missing the Phils so much. Hang in there. Hope you'll survive the holidays. :)
Hi Karina, is your cellphone number the same? I changed mine. I'm not sure if I sent it to you. Anyway, let's see if we could meet while you're here. Let's eat Tom Yum. :)
Hi Lazarus, the next chance you get to go to Thailand, go for it. :) You and your wife will surely love Thailand--the place, the people, the food. :)
Hi Beng, Food here is very good although I haven't found a resto that serves the Thai fried rice that I've gotten used to in the Philippines. I'm not missing the Philippines all that much to be honest. Chow King maybe. I'm more or less a loner so I can cope with being alone better than most.
