Before coming to Thailand I thought that thai food was curry, different colours of it, but curry. I was very wrong, there is far more to it than curry. But despite the dozens of new dishes I have tried green curry is still my favourite, and I have a bit of a personal quest to find the best one in town. Today I tried a new place: Shaley, Siam Sq soi 2 and it is on a 2nd floor. Curry was better than average, but I probably wouldn’t have writen about it if it wasn’t for the presentation of the food.

bear rice and green curry

I thought it was hilarious to get the rice on the shape of a bear. People looked at me with funny faces when I took the photo. I was the only farang there and I reckon they were thinking “bloody tourist…” but I just couldn’t resist!
