Drift through the city

Goong Ten is a northern Thai dish traditionally made with freshwater shrimp, tossed quickly with lime juice, herbs, chili, and toasted rice powder. The name means “dancing shrimp,” a reference to their movement during preparation.

Mekhong is Thailand’s national spirit, made primarily from sugarcane with a small amount of rice, then aromatized with herbs and spices. It’s often described as a whisky, though it’s closer in structure to a spiced rum.

In parts of Bangkok, life still moves along the khlongs (canals). Houses sit on stilts, boats replace cars, and markets drift past front doors. It’s a working water network that predates the roads around it, and it shows a side of the city that runs parallel to the one most people see.
