#TrySomethingNew: New tastes

Somtam was once crowned as #1 True (Thai) Love, but this year, @ayesh-a introduced me to Laab and now I’m a Laab convert. 

It’s minced chicken with Thai basil and some nutty stuff and as I write this with an empty stomach, I think I might just cry and dream about it tonight. 

Second in the picture is a weird fruit called Santol and it’s weird because it’s sweet, bitter, hard and soft all in one. Not that I hate it I just don’t know how to feel towards it.

I guess it’s just one of those tastes that you’ll one day think about and it lingers in your mouth for a bit and it’s hard to get it around here so you’ll just miss it (like a rare nice moment from a mediocre day).

Please try them both and expand your tummy(’s horizons).
