Feed me; spiral mooncakes

Spiral mooncakes just look lovely. I think mooncakes originated in China, eaten at the mid-autumn festival. The Chinese ones look a bit different, but come with the same fillings. The multi layered outside comes in a variety of flavours and colours. Filled with Taro, lotus seed paste and red bean is most common. At a mooncake stand at the Khorat book show at least 20 flavours were on offer, tried about six I hadn't seen before. The purple and green mooncakes look the best though.

Feed me; Thai dessert

Exquisite to some, strange to others, the Thai dessert. I'm a fan of most, Love pandan ice cream and those little jelly things you mainly eat for the sweet sauce they are served in. Top of the list; Khao Niaow Ma Muang or sticky rice with yellow mango !

Feed me; Kao Kriab Pak Moh

Kao Kriab Pak Moh, a cheap and wonderful snack or dessert. Sweet dumplings from the pot's mouth (Kao Kriab Pak Moh) are available all over Thailand. The sweet rice pancakes come in different colors and fillings, all of them are tasteful.

feed me; sticky rice roasted in a banana leaf

Folding the sticky rice and sweet filling in the banana leaf.  The banana packets are best straigh from the charcoal grill. The sweet filling can be banana, taro paste, sweet beans or even with pork. The Charred banana leaf gives it a nice aroma.

The best 'Khao niao ping'  (in my opinion) is to be found in Nan, Thailand. Princess Maha Chakri Sirindhorn is believed to be a customer whenever visiting Nan.
