Thailand is a Southeast Asian, predominantly Buddhist Kingdom almost equidistant between India and China. For centuries known by outsiders as Siam, Thailand has been something of a Southeast Asian migratory, cultural and religious crossroads.
There are many things relate its religion in Thailand. You can see many buildings that relate Buddhist culture. So it also relates the food culture. When you go to any Thai restaurants, you can see many Thai decorations, such as gold color, fruits. Since its geography belong subtropical zone, there are also many subtropical fruits, such as mango, durian and lemon.The Thai fruits are various and fresh.
There are also some special ingredients forThai food. Such as Galangal, Thai Sweet Basil. When I went to Thailand with my parents, they love Thai food so much, so we talked about why it's so special, so we went to super markets to buy some Thai ingredients and sauce, chili, so on. When we went back China, we tried to cook Thai food by ourselves, but we are failed. However those ingredients is most important factors that make special tastes.
