A Day of Incredible Food in Southern Thailand
by Ben McCarthy
It’s hot, blisteringly, soul-swelteringly hot--108 degrees Fahrenheit, to be precise. We’re in Nakhon Si Thammarat, a city in Southern Thailand that sits 10km from the Gulf of Thailand and rarely makes its way onto most tourists’ itineraries. We’re in Nakhon for one reason: to eat unadulterated southern Thai food. The food of the South is vastly different from that of the rest of the country. It relies heavily on turmeric, coconut and the bounty of the sea and is by far the spiciest of all of Thailand’s regional cuisines.
