Thai Food–A Unique Experience

Spicy, salty, tangy, mouth-watering, tears of excitement due to the exotic blend of fresh spices, and equally satisfying to the eye, nose and palate are all words and phrases I’ve heard before when  someone has experienced Thai food. Many bloggers like expat Steve, Hyewon and Sarah, Snickie, Pinky Mcbanon write about their addiction to the combination of sweet, sour, hot, salty and bitter all combined into one dish. It’s a unique taste that you can’t find in any other cuisine which is why people crave it so much. And people like Chef McDang have done a good job in branding the Thai cuisine as one of the best in the world.

Not only is the taste and aroma of the dish important but its visual appeal is too which allows it to beautifully stand out. Thailand food presentation has been elevated to the status of an art which can require years of study and practice.   This type of food art  is beyond words which is why I’ll let  the pictures below speak for themselves.

As you can see Thai cuisine is more than just food. The United States alone has thousands of Thai restaurants which is great for us at the Thai Trade Center. Just this past April certain Thai Trade Center Representatives were in Oregon talking to members of Portland’s Thai community, principally restaurateurs, about Thai government strategies to support Thai business in the United States

 

They discussed Thai government programs to promote Thai food products, cuisine, and culture through Thai restaurants and encourage creation of restaurant business networks.

So if you consider yourself a true die-hard Thai Food Lover or miss the home cooked meals of  family members in Thailand and want to see more of it around your area contact the Thai Trade Center.  We want everyone’s taste buds treated to a daily feast.
