UPLB Alumni Association of Thailand
Came across this blogger site for UPLB alumni from Thai. It’s rather new and has few posts only and you probably won’t understanding anything at all as they are written in Thai scripts. But it is still heartwarming to know of our linkage with the Thais. Makes one think of pad thai, papaya salad and red hot chilis! For a dose of Thailand in Los Baños, there are two places to go. Namjai Thai at LB Square offers fried rice with basil, papaya salad, seafood salad, frog legs in curry (not always available though) and several types of noodles. My favorites are the beef noodles, papaya salad, grass jelly salad, fried tofu and the pork with string beans and kafir. Since it is located at LB Square, you can dine al fresco, too. The other Thai resto is Ning’s Thai House of Noodles, the bestseller of which is the pa siu - flat noodles with peanuts, kangkong and lots of garlic. The sauce for their springroll is a must try, too. There is also the chicken with nuts - sauteed chicken strips with garlic, bell pepper, chili and ground peanuts. Tita Cora, the owner of Ning’s, is such a nice person to talk and you can watch while she’s cooking your order. Each serving would set you back from 50-80 pesos. They’re certainly worth the price.
And by the way, it also a good idea to befriend a Thai student. You will surely be invited to a Thai feast.
Stumble It!
