I’ll be in town all weekend so feel free to stop by anytime!  There will be music, food, blankets on a grassy hill, dancing etc…  Lets test the waters this year and see if we can’t get a tradition going!  Come one Come all!

Songkran at Siam Garden!

Happy Thai New Year!  Siam Garden, a boom banging Thai spot in Red Bank, NJ, has an annual Songkran celebration.  The celebration is complete with a buffet with all of my favorite dishes and many new dishes for tasting!

Among the festivities were:

• live traditional music (khim)

And last but not least… fruit carving!

Yay Yay for the new family tradition!
