Zabb Eli - Issan (Northern Thai) Cuisine

 Bangkok - I went to CentraWorld to have dinner and came across this Issan cuisine and tried that unique cuisine. 

Issan special noodles

Ant egg soup

I wanted to try something unique - Issan Ant egg soup.  Ant egg soup is a traditional dish in Isan, the northeastern region of Thailand. Ant eggs, also known as khai mot daeng in Thai, are a delicacy in Isan cuisine and are often used in soups, salads, and omelets.  

I could not finish the soup as the smell foul and the taste was not familiar.   I just ate the mushrooms and left the soup much unfinished.

Santol desert

Santol, also known as cotton fruit, is a Thai fruit that can be used in desserts.  The flesh looks like meat but it tasted sweet - a really nice dish.
