Question Thai Food

Hey Guys-

I am new to the forum just wanted to say whats up. I plan on making the trek to thailand in a few years, gotta pay those school loans down before i head over. I am just curious to as if anyone has any suggestions of thai dishes to try. I feel as though perhaps some of the thai food over here in america has been well americanized to suit our tastes better. Let me know if anyone has any suggestions. Thanks!

TJ

try everything that looks tasty, avoid stalls that thais dont buy from, if a place is busy its probably because its good.
thai food is great but if you go for a long time you may miss some of the food from home as well.

Right on! That, along with pad kra paow moo was one of my favourite staples.

If you're there in mango season (April to June), mango with sticky rice (kao niao ma ma-muang).

I made chicken and vegetables in coconut milk yesterday. I don't normally do authentic Thai cooking, but instead do simple "Thai-style" stuff. It was sort of like a Tom Kha Gai, but without the Kha....

Chicken
Carrots
Bamboo Shoots
Baby Corn
Coconut Milk
Nam Pla
Cilantro
Sweet Chili Sauce
