Thai sausages!

How to Throw a Sausagefest Party – Yellow Fever!!.–a post by The Arrogant Swine 

THAI – Thailand loves it’s sausages. The one thing I really love about Thai sausages is the use of fresh herbs and spices in the mix. Here’s 2 of the major ones.

Sai Oua – A Northern Sausage. My wife is Thai and this is one of my top 5 favorite sausages. The texture isn’t necessarily my favorite but the flavors are amazing. You get a mixture of cured, fermented, and freshness flavors. It’s seasoned with lemongrass, kaffir and red curry paste which is as fantastic as a sausage could ever hope for.

Sai Grok – This sausage stems from Northeastern Issan region. Hope you love garlic. Full Judo chop full of garlic in every bite!

P.S. for our sausagefest, I bought a pack of Thai sausage from this chef and found it to be really authentic. If you’re in NY, and you’re looking for an authentic Isan sausage, you should definitely reach this man somehow.

Thai Artists at FAB! festival 2012: “Mindfulness” สติ

My friend will be performing at the Fab Festival this coming Saturday. Here is the detail of the event. Overall, I just like the concept of mindfulness as translated in Thai(Buddhist term that is) as Sa-ti. However, I am in the state of “mindlessness” at this point into the semester. =D

The pictures look good. Go check out her performance!
