Food, glorious food.

Chiang Mai is a food heaven. You can get literally get anything to eat here. There is Thai, Korean, Japanese, Mexican, Italian, American, British, .....the list goes on. We love the street food best by far. It is fresh, fast and inexpensive.

Above are fresh mangosteens, sweet and delicious.


This plate of sushi at the nightmarket was 30thb ($1)

Mango with sticky sweet rice. 40thb.

Here the kids are ordering fruit shakes, they are devine. 50cents each.
Thai fried rice. 40thb.

Pep having some icecream. You can get a little cone off the street for 10thb.

Woody eating some yoghurt (10thb). He has started feeding himself and loves all his food!
My personal favourite, banana Roti with your choice of extra condensed milk, honey or nutella.( 30thb)
 

Cooper has always been adventurous with food! ( 100thb)

Woody gets an inside look at a Thai Kitchen.

Some people seem to get caught up with what thier kids will eat when they travel to SE Asia. I have heard of people packing suitcases full of jars of baby food, you need not worry. You can get anything and everything you need for all family members.

There is street food, market food, restaurant food and a handful of big supermarkets if need be. ( we have used these for nappies)

Everywhere we have eaten Woody has just had the same as us ( less spice of course) and there is always a banana or yoghurt on hand for when we wakes up earlier than the rest of Chiang Mai. He has increased his breastfeeds from around 4 to 24 being in the heat here, and has loved tasting all the fresh fruit shakes with the help of mastering a straw this holiday.

We are hoping to do a Thai cooking class to extend our love of thai food into our Melbourne home kitchen.
