Food & Dining in Thailand

What to Eat in Thailand

Eating

Among the finest in the world, Thai cuisine offers a tantalising range of delicate flavours, enhanced by herbs and spices - especially chili.

A typical meal will include a variety of beef, pork, chicken or fish dishes, together with noodles, salads, and vegetables, upon a base of boiled or fried rice. Different sauces accompany certain dishes, and a standard condiment is Nam Pla (fish sauce) spiced with chopped chilies.

Perennial favourites include Tom Yaam Kung (prawn soup with chili and lemongrass) or Tom Kha Gai (chicken with coconut cream and lime juice)

Drinking

Thailand offers a remarkable range of soft drinks, fresh juices, and imported and local mineral waters. Singha (pronounced Sing) and Chang beers are the standard brews of consumption among Thais, while Kloster, Carlsberg, Heineken and other international brand name beers are now brewed in Thailand.

There are several strong rice-based spirits and locally brewed whiskeys on the market that are increasingly popular among the Thais. In recent years, Thailand has begun production of a moderately palatable red and white wine called Chateau de Loei, from grapes grown in the Isaan province of Loei.
