This is definitely my kind of tourism... Those little Thai Tacos are called panchi, I believe. It's like a taro and corn cake with marshmallow in it or something. There was this Thai place in Montreal that served them...I was never a huge fan, but they're not bad. If only SE Asians could know Popeye's...so much better! Hey, again, very awesome.

So, I must salute them. I love papaya salad too and will post on the one I enjoyed in the near future. Chatuchak was a delicious madhouse. WC - My lack of enthusiasm for meats on a stick is pathetic. I want to want them, ya know? Check your email for one of the dresses ;-) Vu- If you dug this post, you'll surely appreciate the next installments. More eating in Bangkok in the coming days. Mama - Thanks! And there's lots more to come ;-) Sari - I couldn’t have eaten like a champ without my two travel-mates. So, I must salute them.
