Day 150

Today was a really exciting day because i made it back to Chiang Mai yesterday and didn't get sick from the ride back, and today i decided to learn how to cook Thai food! I started the day around 9:45, where a group of 6 of us went with this lady named, Rad (aweseome name) and toured the local food market and then went to her cooking class/house which is called: Thai Orchid cookery school. We started off with a spicy coconut soup, then made my favorite thai dish: pad thai with big noodle, which they just called Fried Big Noodle (pad in thai means fried, so that makes sense). After the awesome first two meals we continued to learn Red curry with roast duck, then fried chicken with basil, spicy pork salad and then ended with our dessert, water chestnuts with coconut milk. It was an awesome day and one of the most tiring because of all the cooking, but especially because of all the eating! The great thing about learning to cook is also the eating. So the next time you need an awesome thai meal, don't be afraid to ask...actually be afraid a bit.
