Every Friday, a new photo of amazing Asian people and places here on Travelhappy. This week – Japanese snack food that makes me feel a bit of a sucker…
The Japanese give gifts on arrival and departure from visiting friends, and one of the gifts they gave us was a selection of Japanese snacks – including this delightful bag of tentacles. Mmm. I consider myself quite broadminded when it comes to food, but there is just something about the way the tentacles are sticking out and curling behind the label in the picture above that makes me feel somewhat queasy. We had a look around so the ladies could try eating scorpions, but sadly couldn’t find any.
Tentacles aside, we did a day trip to Ayutthaya so they could see the ancient ruins of the old Thai capital and a visit to Jim Thompson’s House, which was a highlight. Suan Lum Night Bazaar was also a big hit as the perfect place to hunt down interesting jewellery and other crafts amongst the usual tat.
