Thai Creations by Sam

June 9, 2011

As I’ve probably mentioned on my blog before, my mother is a wonderful cook – not just of Thai food, but everything she touches. Well, she is a very creative person and continues to amaze me with her talents. Late last year, when my mother (Sam) was in Thailand, she took fruit carving lessons from [...]

March 2, 2011

It’s been awhile since I’ve written and I have a huge amount of posts waiting in line to say hello to the world. I sincerely apologize to all of my readers that I’ve left waiting in the wings, and I really don’t have any good reason for it. So let’s get to it! Thai Basil [...]

A Need to Try Salathai (on Burrard)

December 1, 2009

As a half-Thai person, I am reeeally picky about my Thai food. As a half-Thai person with an excellent cook for a mother, it’s even worse. I have yet to find someplace that comes close to the real deal in Thailand, but since I don’t live there, I really have to take what I can get [...]

Make Larb Tonight

November 9, 2009

So one of my all-time favourite Thai dishes that most people have not yet tried is called larb (pronounced kind of like ’la-ab’). I grew up with this dish (as I was extremely lucky and not only is my mom Thai, but an AMAZING cook) and it’s something that I like more and more each time [...]
