Amazing Thai Food
I really like thai food which makes me feel so satisfied after I taste it. Balance, detail, and variety are significant to Thai chefs. People can get happiness when they put one piece of thai food in their mouth. The famous thai cuisine chef Mcdang wrote in his book:
"What is Thai food? Every country in the world has its own food profile. It reflects its culture, environment, ingenuity and values. In the case of Thailand, these words come to mind: intricacy; attention to detail; texture; color; taste; and the use of ingredients with medicinal benefits, as well as good flavor.
We not only pay attention to how a dish tastes: we are also concerned about how it looks, how it smells, and how it fits in with the rest of the meal. We think of all parts of the meal as a whole - sum rap Thai (the way Thais eat), is the term we use for the unique components that make up a characteristically Thai meal."
I remember we had lunch in a thai restaurant. The environment is pretty nice and people eating food there are quiet and polite. I was exited and didn't know what should I order since it seems like everything in thai food tastes very delicious. At last, I ordered one dish called Pad Thai which is a kind of famous noodle in Thailand.
So, Pad Thai is actually "stir-fried rice noodle dish commonly served as a street food and at casual local eateries in Thailand. It is made with soaked dried rice noodles, which are stir-fried with eggs and tofu, and flavored with tamarind pulp, fish sauce , dried shrimp, garlic or shallots, red chili pepper and palm sugar. It may also contain other vegetables like bean sprouts, garlic chives, pickled radishes or turnips, and raw banana flowers. It may also contain fresh shrimp, crab, squid, chicken or other proteins. " I liked it so much because of the taste, especially the materials that makes up the noodles. It is soft but still chewy. I guess you will like it if you haven't tasted it before.

I suppose you must heard of Thai Tea before. Thai Tea, also known as Thai Ice Tea, is a thai drink made from strongly brewed Ceylon tea. Often, people add some milk into the tea which makes it sweeter. Evaporated milk, coconut milk or whole milk is generally poured over the tea and ice before serving to add taste and creamy appearance. It tastes similar to the pearl milk tea while the thai tea does not have "pearl" boba in it. In my opinion, it is better than the milk tea.
I suddenly remember that yesterday our school cafe served us thai food for lunch. The thai tea impressed me. The chefs made them not bad; well, actually, I really like it. Students asked for another cup of thai tea after they finished the first one.
Thai food is really popular not only in asian area, but also all around the world. If you know how the thai food tastes like and you like it, recommend it to other people. If you haven't got a chance to taste thai food, I will tell you: try and enjoy!
