I can cook Thai food! Today we met up with Mike & Christine at the Baipai Cooking School for some Thai food cooking. It was so much fun. We made all sorts of goodies - my favorite was the Panang Curry, Michael liked the Golden Bags (?)....
The class was in the morning so we were picked up from our hotel and driven through the crazy Bangkok traffic to the school. There was some kind of protest in the center of town so everywhere was gridlocked - at one point in time we found ourselves headed the wrong way on a one way street. Funnily enough we weren't moving forward!!
The cooking was great. We arrived and had a little demo from our teachers, who then let us loose in their outdoor kitchens. The place is beautiful, so quiet and calm.
Michael was a whiz with the wok - making the most tasty Thai fried rice.

Afterwards we wandered through Lumphini park and onto Chinatown where we proceeded to get lost in the tiny alleys. There was so much to see - including every kind of Hello Kitty product possible. At dusk we got a Tuk Tuk to our favorite resturant.
