The Foodie's Guide to Thailand! From street food to traditional Thai dishes!

Thailand has been on my travel bucket list ever since my Mother went there years and years ago and raved about it! There are so many things I look forward to experiencing one of which is the food! I love Thai food in the U.S. and although I heard it is different in Thailand, I can’t wait to taste it all! Thanks to this round up of posts on places to eat in Thailand, I will have a good idea what to eat and where! Have you been to Thailand? If so what was your favorite restaurant?

    I love this well thought out guide! I love the mango and papaya salad which I have tried. Thai food is delicious! There is so many restaurants that look great. I hope to travel to Thailand someday. It is also good that you have different list for vegans and other types of preferences for those who want to visit this lovely country

  • Because of the earthquakes, I have not shared information about Turkey in a while. It was so devastating@to hear the news after spending time there in December. I continue to pray 🙏🏽 for everyone affected. Consider making a donation. I did to @doctorswithoutborders 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
But I did write 2 travel guides on Istanbul based on my trip there with @goturkiye. One is a comprehensive guide on Istanbul with information on luxury hotels, restaurants, shopping, museums, and my favorite neighborhoods. The other is a Turkish food guide. I was on a culinary trip, so as you can imagine, I ate it all!! You can find both at thesophisticatedlife.com
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Now if you are a shopaholic, beware of the Grand Bazaar in Istanbul! It has EVERYTHING your heart desires! I have never seen so many different stalls, from ball gowns to ceramics to sportswear. I bought myself a beautiful leather purse and was tempted to buy so much more. Credit cards and Turkish lira are accepted.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
As far as the Spice Bazaar, the aromas were captivating. I enjoyed just looking at the array of spices and sampling Lokum. There is a long swift line for purchasing packaged Turkish coffee, so have your lira ready!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀

  • BLACK-OWNED WINE BAR IN LONDON!
***Save for your next trip to London! If you are in London-check it out this weekend!

Did you know the actor, DJ, humanitarian etc etc @idriselba is also the co-owner of a wine bar in London?!! 

@portenoirekx is a cozy wine bar in the Kings Cross neighborhood which is a major rail hub filled with cool restaurants and shops on a canal. Perfect for a romantic evening!

The wine menu is extensive! Red, white, Rose, Orange wines, Wine on Tap, and my favorite-BUBBLES! There also have Cocktails. 

I decided to try one of their wines-the Porte Noire "Vintage" Blanc de Blancs Grand cru 2010-100% Chardonnay from Champagne, France for 19 pounds per glass, 119 pounds per bottle. It was fresh, crisp, radiant..

The menu is limited but unique. We had the Sourdough with "Umeboshi butter", Charcuterie plate, Mushroom arancini with sun dried tomato pesto, roast pork belly with tamarind glaze and "peanut sambal". WHOA. Such an extraordinary combination of flavors!! And for dessert we shared the burnt matcha cheesecake! 

As I walked around my mouth dropped open at the wine cellar collection! 

These are the experiences I would like to share when you join me on @culinarytravels_thesophislife Sign up for my newsletter to get all the info!

Have you been to @portenoirekx ?

  • ***SAVE FOR YOUR NEXT TRIP TO NAPA!!
During my trip to Napa for the @blackvines_ weekend of events I stayed at this luxury Black-owned Bed & Breakfast in downtown Napa! @mcclellandhouse 

It was AMAZING! I have been to Napa several times including last year & didn’t know it existed so I’m so glad Black Vines introduced me to it! 

We spent 4 nights being pampered. The main house has 5 bedrooms with their own bathrooms and each had their own theme. Our bedroom and bathroom were HUGE and more like a suite. It was the master. There is also a separate house w a bedroom and bathroom that sleeps 4. Some of the rooms have terraces 😍😍. 

We had breakfast every morning made fresh by a chef and he even took recommendations 🥞 and we had delicious mimosas 🍾🍾

The location was ideal. You can walk to the shops & restaurants downtown. 

There was also daily housekeeping services. Parking right in front of the house. Easy access to the house. Living and dining room lounge areas. Tea & coffee in the room. Hermes lotions and soaps… 

I would love to go back next year with a group for @culinarytravels_thesophislife Who is coming with me?

  • If you are going to Whistler BC, here are some essential packing tips! These tips can actually be used for most ski resort areas in Canada and the US.  Here is a tip-Early spring AKA as the “shoulder season” is a great time to go skiing. 
It’s less crowded, less expensive, warmer weather! 
I went to @gowhistler and stayed at @fairmontwhistlr in April last year and it was perfect! 

Back to packing tips: 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1. Layers, layers, layers: Make sure to pack plenty of layers to keep you warm and comfortable on the slopes. This includes thermal base layers, insulating mid-layers, and a waterproof outer layer.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
2. Ski equipment: If you’re bringing your own ski equipment, make sure to pack skis or snowboard, boots, poles, helmets, and goggles. If you’re renting, double-check the rental equipment options at your destination to ensure availability.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
3. Accessories: Don’t forget to pack essential accessories like gloves, mittens, a hat, neck warmer or balaclava, and hand and feet warmers.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
4. Apres-ski wear: After a long day on the slopes, you’ll want something comfortable and warm to change into. Pack comfortable shoes or boots, warm sweaters, and pants for lounging around the chalet.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
5. Sun protection: The sun can be strong at high altitudes, so don’t forget to pack sunscreen, lip balm with SPF, and sunglasses or goggles with UV protection.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
6. Personal items: Pack your essentials, such as toiletries, medications, and any other personal items you may need for your trip.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
7. Travel documents: Make sure to bring your passport, visas, travel insurance, and other important documents.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
8. Backpack: A backpack is essential for carrying water, snacks, and other essentials while you’re on the mountain.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
9. Camera: Don’t forget to capture the amazing scenery and memories on your ski trip. Bring a camera or smartphone to take pictures and videos of your adventure.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
10. Emergency kit: Lastly, pack an emergency kit with first aid supplies, a flashlight, and extra batteries, just in case.
