Spent most of Sunday at the Thai Festival in Shibuya. It was really packed! I bet cell towers in the area were probably overworked. ^^.

It’s a huge contrast from what’s happening back in Bangkok. Everyone here was just having a ball enjoying the best of Thai cuisine. No reds, no yellows. Just all smiles.

Have always wanted to try this Thai restaurant in Jiyugaoka. But twice I went, twice I couldn’t get a table. Don’t think you can call it third time lucky, but I’m definitely going to reserve a table when I go next.

I got the “lap gai” and “pakimao”. How do you spell them right in Thai? They were pretty good.

Drinks drinks drinks.

I prefer Chang beer over Singha. Prefer its richer taste.

The weather was simply perfect for a Thai fest. In fact, the weather is always perfect when the Thai fest is on. ^^.

You like pig trotters? They are just heavenly when served in black vinegar and garlic.

What’s the first dish to catch your eye? For me, it was タイ風ビーフンスパイシーダックスープ.

Queueing up for my タイ風ビーフンスパイシーダックスープ. That duck is dead as a duck.

No Thai festival is complete with a bowl of spicy duck noodles. Yummy. This is my favorite Thai noodle. Love this even more than Som Tom!

Came home with a bag of mangosteens. Chilled mangosteens are simply the best after dinner. Cartons of mangoes will be arriving tomorrow. Going to get vitamin c, fibre, whatever’s-in-mangoes boost this coming week. ^^.
