I'm sure Thailands Phad Ga Phrao moo with a deep fried crispy fried egg on top will stand head and shoulders above all the other delicacies.

Image is not very clear but whatever it is on the right looks suspiciously like dope brownies.

Thai food set to serve the world’s kitchens

Big hoo ha in yesterday's press about how the taxi drivers there are refusing to carry Thais and are charging overseas visitors exorbitant rates. Free shuttle busses hastily arranged for today to improve the situation.

How? Does each exhibitor pay 23 million for a stall, or are visitors predicted to spend 700k each over the 5 days (hotels, food etc) ? Either way, seems expensive ????
