    Spirit House? What's it? What to do with it?

    What is a spirit house? Though Thai people claim that their country is a “Buddhist country”, there are Brahmin-Hindu practices everywhere. Erecting a spirit house is one of them.

One morning, an international flight designated to Don Muang airport was canceled, resulting in an enormous amount of leftovers such as sausages, fried eggs, ketchup - ingredients

Stir-fried Basil with Stewed Pork Leg If you’re sick of ordinary stewed pork leg served on rice, note that many stewed pork leg restaurants have a stir-fried spicy basil version of the dish on their menus.
