Sa-wat-dee-Kah and Kop Kun Kah (Hello and Thank You)

The best of Bangkok? The food, hands down. My favorites:



Fresh (raw and baked) coconut juice everywhere, from the streets to the amazing MBK Food Court ("granddaddy" of food courts with vendors selling food from every corner of Thailand).




Papaya salad, also everywhere. Something I rarely find done right in the States.




Spicy dishes served in banana leaves.



Awamphu River Market.  Not like anything I've ever seen.



Sorbet and ice cream (whipped up from coconut milk instead of cow milk) flavored by fruits more readily available in Thailand (longan, lychee, mangosteen, jackfruit, papaya, rambutan, gooseberry).  Flavors photographed: red bean and green tea, cherry lemon, and longan.



Not just day but night food stalls with freshly caught seafood, fried and spiced up on the street.
