Summary:

"The food of Thailand is a comprehensive introduction to one of the world's great cuisines. Thailand has an increasingly well-known and much-loved repetoire of dishes, some more familiar than others. Join our culinary journey from the street snacks found in Bangkok's markets to the seafood freshly cooked on the beaches of the Gulf of Thailand, and meet the locals, from the sweet-makers of Phetchabun province to the rice-growing hill tribes of the northern region. Discover the myriad of dishes that make up modern Thai cuisine: from traditional green, red and panaeng curries, eaten by every Thai, to salads like som tam and laap, redolent with herbs and chilies, and coconut-based soups including the famous tom khaa kai."-- ront flyleaf.
