Eat & Drink Like a Local
Incendiary curries, fresh seafood and the tropical fruit you've been dreaming
about - Thailand has it all. But what many visitors aren't aware of is that by eat-
ing in guesthouse restaurants and tourist- frequented stalls, they're often getting a
gentrified version of Thai food. To help you experience the true flavours of Thai-
land, we've put together a section to inspire and familiarise you with the dishes
of Thailand's various regions. For an overview of Thai food, Click here .
The Year in Food
Summer (Mar-Jun)
Thailand's hot season is the best time of year for fruit. Durian, mangoes, mangosteen and lychees are all at their
juicy peak during these months.
Rainy Season (Jul-Oct)
One holiday to look out for during the rainy season is Thailand's annual Vegetarian Festival (typically held in late
September or early October). The festival is celebrated particularly in towns with large Chinese populations, such
as Bangkok, Phuket Town and Trang.
Winter (Nov-Jan)
During Thailand's brief cool season, open-air beer halls, many serving spicy Thai drinking snacks, spring up in the
country's larger cities.
