I thought tea belonged in a cup. Then I found a night market in Chiang Mai serving a salad made from fermented tea leaves. The dish is called laphet thoke and comes from Myanmar, where fermented tea leaves have been eaten for centuries and traditionally shared with guests as a sign of hospitality. Next to it was banana flower salad a dish popular across Southeast Asia. The banana blossom is sliced into thin strips and mixed with herbs, lime, chili and peanuts, giving it a crunchy texture somewhere between cabbage and artichoke. Salty, bitter, sour, crunchy, floral nothing tasted the way I expected. This is what I love about night markets in Asia. Not the “top 10 foods”. The feeling that there are still things in the world you’ve never even imagined eating. 📍I’ve been collecting places like this all over Chiang Mai. The guide is almost ready follow if you want the first drop. A cinematic night market scene in Chiang Mai, Thailand featuring banana flower salad and fermented tea leaf salad being prepared and served under glowing lanterns at a local street food stall.

Cass and Shelly from Sailing Eriskay took a beautiful walk to the store and were captivated by a rainbow across the Kotor Bay which moved along in the brisk chilly wind. Such amazing surroundings here in Kotor Montenegro. We always appreciate the ability to stretch our legs whilst enjoying the vista we are engulfed in. #rainbow #travelblogger #sailinglife #traveldestinations #kotor #sea #landscape #mountains #wind
