		<description><![CDATA[Wat That Noi (วัดธาตุน้อย) is a temple found in the south of Thailand in Nakhon Si Thammarat Province. It was the residence of Portan Klai (1876-1970), said to be one of the most famous guru monks of his generation. The temple includes a wax-reproduction of him as well as his mortal remains.

Found on the small by-street leading into the market, it&#8217;s run by a friendly Vietnamese family and has several excellent choices to start out the day. As another plus, they make fresh-brewed coffee that is very [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[On our last trip to Thailand, while browsing through the street market in Bangkok&#8217;s Chinatown, I came across a package of seaweed and bought it because of the writing on the package. Translation is fraught with perils and there are even websites devoted to &#8220;Engrish&#8221; &#8211; translations that are often too literal and inadvertently just [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Dim Sum, in Thailand? On a recent trip to Nakhon Si Thammarat in the south of Thailand, we found a restaurant that serves delicious dim sum (though by a different name &#8212; see below). Like many southern Thai cities, Nakhon si Thammarat has a large Chinese (Chinese-Thai, more accurately) population. Dim Sum is widely available [...]]]></description>

Although it is also one of the most heavily touristed places I visit, the color and interest is always there.

It&#8217;s one of the dishes I cook the most for myself (and Kasma) at home. People often think of Thai food as being a lot of work: well, this dish is relatively [...]]]></description>

Just a decade ago, it&#8217;s almost unthinkable that Thais would ever give up the white rice they have become so accustomed to eating and regard as a refinement of their taste for the rough-and-tumble brown rice relegated to a small subset of [...]]]></description>
