“Moo Krata” by the sea

With Thais craving a return to the moo krata feasts they so enjoyed before COVID-19 sent us all into quasi solitary confinement, sellers of this popular food have been finding ways to get it delivered to customers, even when they are on the beach.

 

While consumers in Bangkok and big cities enjoy moo krata home delivery by motorcycle or pickup truck, visitors to Pranburi, a popular seaside resort city south of Bangkok, can sit back, relax and wait for their moo krata by the sea.

 

Moo krata is a Thai eating culture associated with friendship, fun, sharing, and the sense of getting together.  A tasty combination of Asian barbecue and Chinese hotpot, a moo krata dinner is a fun activity where a group of friends or family members enjoy grilling meat, boiling vegetables, sharing food, and chatting over the moo krata pan.  This makes moo krata a preferred meal choice for any occasion, whether people are happy or sad, relaxed or stressed.

It seems odd, then again not so odd, that folks who meet twice-vaxxed and recently negative Covid 'tourists' at Suvarnabhumi are in full hazmat gear, or that restaurants in Pattaya cannot serve alcohol, but folks can gather around a hibachi, sans masks, pawing the same food with the chopsticks they use to deliver the moo ka ta fare to their mouths.

 

Apparently Covid does not like moo ka ta.
