Bangkok Food
Today we went back for more massages at Wat Po and afterwards walked through the market behind it towards the river. These are a number of tasty dishes that I did not eat. But they were across from a woman selling grilled sticky rice in banana leaves. They were really tasty. The banana leaves were kept folded around the rice by a toothpick through the middle and staples at either end.

Soi 5 Ingredients
I'm not sure what road-side dining adventure these are for. What would you make with peanuts, dried shrimp, small crabs, tomatoes, limes, and long green beans?

Isabelle's Dessert

Isabelle's Dessert
My sister made dinner in a Thai style. Shown here is the main part of the dessert. The pitcher has some juice whose name I forget, and going clockwise from there there's the bowl of cane sugar syrop, grass jelly, coconut bits (in some sort of syrop), white beans (in some sort of syrop), something I can't remember, and finally palm nuts (in some sort of syrop). Outside the frame if the Ice and coconut milk. There's also a separate dish of pumpkin and custard that you can't see. And I of course a distinct absence of condensed (or was it evaporated?) milk.
