Another popular request is for food photos, as Thai food and American food are so different.  I have grown to love true Thai cooking so much, I don't know how I will survive when I return to the US!

Som tom bpla.  Som tom is one of the most traditional and best loved Thai dishes, a form of papaya salad.  This is a little different.  Som tom bpla is made with fermented fish, and is most popular in the northeast.  It has a very strong smell and taste, and most Thais from Bangkok can't stand it, but I LOVE it.  This dish was ordered especially for me.  You can tell because they know I love extra spicy food, and this is loaded with red hot chillis.

Shredded catfish deep fried and crispy.

Grilled shrimp.  We eat a LOT of shrimp here, and all kinds of sea food is plentiful.

Grilled crab.

On a recent outing, Jib grills pork, a fish, and shrimp for the team.
