Airplane food. The Eva Air (Taiwanese) service from London to Bangkok in Economy. Both meals had an Eastern vs Western option. I picked the Eastern for both dinner and brunch.

First meal in Bangkok at a late night dive bar near the hotel with maximalist decor and a 70s hard rock soundtrack.

We went t an Isaan restaurant popular with Bangkok locals where I had crab claws, and a green mango salad which looked more lethal than it was. I nibbled on some veg garnishes on the table meant to accompany the charcoal grilled tilapia and chicken that are their signature dishes. The dipping sauces were quite lethal. We are going to Isaan in the NE of Thailand on Friday.

We arrived in southern Isaan today but didn’t manage to get any Isaan food. Some run of the mill Thai at our resort on the Mekong bordering Laos and in the town of Khong Chiam.

We went to restaurant with a bib gourmand from the Michelin guide. Scary entrance dow a lot of stairs to the river bank with wobbly low handrails culminating in a rickety bridge. Food was terrific. A green they call kale in Thailand that I think is choi sam with salt fish. Catfish stir fried with Chinese celery. Highlight was deep fried whole tiny fish with whole unpeeled cloves of garlic with a spicy dipping sauce (& ketchup for farangs like my husband who can’t handle heat).

Sick today so spicy ramen. I’m supposed to play in a concert tomorrow so hopefully I’ll feel a bit better then.7 -
I cooked a Thai curry with lots of turmeric, fishsauce and terassi, chili, chicken, some veggies, and fresh pineapple. The fermented salty taste of the fishsauce together with the pineapple is wonderful!5

Today we travelled to provincial capital Ubon Ratchatani still in NE Isaan. We ate at a place specialised in Southern Thai cooking. We ordered clear soup, nam prik (=raw veg with hot dip) with crab meat and coconut and a clam curry. I found it all too sweet for my taste.

Lunch on a grey rainy day.
•Harvest meatloaf, egg and roast neeps (turnips) with rosemary.
(My harvest meatloaf includes offal and liver, pumpkin seeds… so it comes out much darker than most. )
•Probiotic raspberry seltzer, and shots of turmeric and ginger on the side.

Our new hotel in Ubon Ratchatani has options for eastern or western breakfast. This is an asian option. Heinz products adapted for the Thai market.

@acpgee I’m enjoying your dispatches from Thailand. That’s some dangerous-looking Heinz 🥵 Thanks for showing the water apples, that’s a fruit I had never seen before. So pretty.
@SafariGalNYC Your lunch on a grey rainy day looks elegant. I love the three drinks.
@janicemlove Sorry you’re sick, I hope you can stay home and take it easy.2 -
Snack: Paté made with chicken liver, sherry wine, truffles, mushrooms, and Brandy aspic. Plus Honeycrisp apple. A winning combination in my book 😋

From the book The Real Meal Revolution: Warm Haddock and Cauliflower Salad with Tahini Dressing (scroll down past the article to see the recipe -- I have made all three of the featured recipes, and while the other two were not worthwhile, this one was fantastic). I used smoked trout because I couldn't get haddock. I also replaced most of the butter with olive oil, to cut back on the saturated fat. I wouldn't call this a salad, but that's my only criticism.

If you haven’t tried mangosteen they are similar to lychee only sweeter and tarter with a creamier texture. A cross between lychee and a peach. Water apple was new to me. Slightly sweet and thirst quenching and crisp. A cross between persimmon and celery.
We had lunch at a pitstop for locals. Pork noodle soup and a spring roll served traditionally with perilla leaf for wrapping.

We ate at a trendy beer garden where everybody else was 20-something. The waitress had to teach me how to eat oysters Thai style. Mix a few shucked oysters with chopped red onion, sliced raw garlic and chillis. Slather on a hot sauce (choice of hot&sweet or hot&sour) and some deep fried shallots. Nibble on some bitter herb to clean the palate between oysters. They are not afraid of strong flavours here. A dozen oysters were $4.50. We had a whole seabass afterwards dressed with skin on diced lime and skin off red onion, lemongrass, deep fried kaffir lime leaf, raw chilli, peanuts, dried shrimp and fish sauce.

Brunch of pork belly and rice at an elegant hole in the wall. Late lunch of steak and salad, Isaan style at a trendy hole in the wall. Those are whole cloves of pan fried garlic garnishing the steak.

I love the clean but strident flavours of Isaan food, but have been nervous about ordering spicy dishes as Isaan regional cooking is known to be hot, even by Thai standards. Today I tried the notorious chopped salad which was indeed hot but delicious. Peanuts, fried dried shrimp, diced skin on lime, chopped onion, both red and green raw peppers, and fried finely sliced lemongrass on a bed of herby perilla leaves. The rest of our dinner order was a non spicy omelette with minced pork and fried shrimp with hot and lime-y or hot and sweet dipping sauces.
