1. THAI CUISINE
Thai food as some people, but I have sampled truly excellent Thai dishes during the countless months I’ve eaten dishes from north to south. The food culture in Thailand is also remarkable and one of my favorite aspects of eating there. Street food is abundant and I’ve never failed to find a tasty dish from Thai street vendors. I often look for the street carts with a long line of local Thais, stand in line, then order whatever the person before me was eating.
Thai cuisine a fun one to eat. But you can also find incredible gourmet and traditional recipes done well at restaurants. Regional specialities also mean you’re never bored for flavors—Isan food in the central and north features the always-enjoyable sticky rice and a lot of spice and fish. In other areas curries take center stage, and no Thai curry is perhaps more famous than the rich, relatively mild flavors in Massaman curry,
2. Middle Eastern Cuisine
Middle Eastern cuisine that I’m lumping all of it together. Why is this food so tasty? Delightful dishes you can find across the region include: shawarma, hummus, pita, nuts, and dried fruits—so many incredible dried fruits, including dates, figs, and sweet, sweet apricots. Then there’s the beautiful chopped salads brimming with tomatoes and cucumber, and often augmented with sliced onions, herbs, vinegar, or simply salt and oil.
No one does salads quite like the Middle East, perhaps because of the Mediterranean influence. That influence also means the cuisine is brimming with fresh vegetables and a veritable rainbow of colors. Middle Eastern food has a lot to offer vegetarians, and it’s also named one of the healthiest diets in the world.
