Thailand's hot zone: Isaan cuisine is spicing up Bangkok's streets

Article Abstract:

Isaan meals have gained increasing popularity in Bangkok, despite the haughty attitude adopted toward them by sophisticates. The cuisine comes from the impoverished part of Thailand where people have to stretch their meals by adding strong flavors, salted fish, lime juice and herbs such as spearmint. The enormously popular dishes have, thus, found their way from the streets to various restaurants that specialize in the region's cuisine.
