Fun Food in Thailand

Wow, Thailand has some great food. Because Thailand is on the ocean, there is a lot of seafood. In most places, you can walk down the street and someone is cooking something to sell. They love to eat rice and corn-on-the-cob, especially if the corn is grilled.


This is a fisherman. He stands in the river and throws his net to catch the fish.
You can buy seafood fresh from the ocean or rivers. They pack it in ice and sell it on the street.
This man works near the beach. He cooks food for people who are spending their day at the beach. While you are on the beach, many people will walk up and down wanting you to buy from them. They have lots of fruit - especially pineapple and watermelon - seafood, nuts and many other things.
This man is taking rice and shaping it into a heart. he might do this all the time, but I took this picture on Valentine's day, so maybe he was doing it for his wife.
This is at the Japanese restaurant where they cook your food at the table.
Do you recognize this restaurant? Because many foreigners come to Thailand, they have places where they can eat familiar foods.
He hands are clasped together because this is how people greet each other in Thailand.
