Thai food outside Thailand is very expensive, but still tastes wonderful. In Thailand it is so cheap, and a great meal can be found on the side of the street, or at market stalls for no more than $1.
What is your favourite Thai dish. Fried rice? Pad Thai? Gang Kleo waan? yellow curry, lat naa, pat krapow?

Thai food is amazing. I was on a business trip in Bangkok and we have a Thai buffet.....wow. The colours, tastes, details and overall creativity is breathtaking. I might be bias, but I don't think so. I love everything about Thailand, the people, sights, culture and of course the food. Sawasdee Khrup!

There was obviously something in my destiny which said that I had spent enough time in Thailand (12 years), as my visa was revoked, and I am not allowed to return. Every good thing comes to an end sometime!

That's true. The Thais certianly know how to decorate a place, and make you feel comfortable.

In fact my favourite food is Indian, but there are a few Thai dishes that I really like too. There is a significant difference between Thai food and Indian food.

I have neverhad Thai food, my impression is that it is hot/spicy. I do not enjoy hot/spicy foods.

Some can be hot and spicy, but much is not. Like the tom Kha Kai mentioned above, is chicken cooked in coconut milk - not spicy at all. Pad aThai is not spicy either. Almost all the dishes can be cooked without chilli, which is the spice used to make it hot. try it - you'll love it.

Do you get chance to eat it very often. My wife is Thai, so I get Thai food several times per week - aren't I a lucky boy.

Do you cook it for him, or does he take you to a restaurant.
Whereabouts are you?

No Pad Thai is noodles with vegetables and beansprouts, sort of like a cooked salad, but has it's own unique flavour.
Thai food is delicious isn't it.

You should.
It;s very different to anthing else, with an amazing mix of herbs and spices, with all flavours varying from very hot to sweet.
The breadth of variety is what interstes me. You could have a different flavour every day for a year.

I love Thai food. I wasn't introduced to it until a few years ago but now I love it. It's incredibly. Much tastier than most Asian foods. I don't know if it's the spices or what but ti's so good. My favorites are Pad Thai of course & pineapple fried rice. Yummy!

I love Thai Food and my favourite dish is Green Curry, but Red Curry can also be good, served with fried rice, or coconut rice. I like noodles too.:-)
I've never been to Thailand, but it sounds really cheap. A long, long flight though.
