Thai cuisine is considered among the world's most delicious, with a unique blend of particular tastes: hot (spicy), sour (piquant), sweet, and always highlighted with citrus (lemongrass and lime).

The most important thing to remember about Thai food is to appreciate its lightness, its heat and its passionate smell long before it arrives at your dining table. Herbs used in our food have a dissimilar scent from western ones. They are much more aromatic and yield different flavors in each Thai dish.

To appreciate Thai food you have to understand how we eat. Westerners eat their foods with such starch as bread and potatoes. Thais eat their foods with rice. The experience of having a Thai dinner is a communal eating. Many dishes are served for all to share and everyone at the table take the food from these dishes and eat them with rice. Each person at the table does not get his or her own plate of fried fish or sweet and sour pork. They will get a plate of rice and share all the dishes served at the table. It makes the meal more enjoyable because you can sample more dishes that you want.
