Learning Thai the Easy Way!

Eating Thai food is one of the highlights of any trip to Thailand. The food is simply delicious (a-roi). Although many people prefer to eat inside restaurants with bilingual menus, they are missing out on the charm of the roadside noodle shops. At these places you won't find an English menu but you will certainly get value for money. The following list of food comes from the wonderful Thai Hawker Food book which we often refer to.
