Something Interesting

How to: eat the Thai way Eating food is such an important activity in Aroy Thai so heres how you can brush up on your table manners before you come. (Thai table manners that is.) Forget about stiffly starched napkins, enough cutlery tools to hold up an airplane and all sorts of long forgotten, quirky Victorian mannerisms at the table; eating at Aroy Thai is quite different. None the less, Thais have their own etiquette at meal times.

OK, so you've been taught all sorts of posh habits, like eating with your mouth closed, never using your fork as a spoon and tipping your soup bowl away from you, well throw that all out the window, the Thai's are a little different,

Thai table manners are more practical and mostly aimed at civil communal eating. Many mannerisms go back to a previous era when meals were collectively shared; food was the most important gift and gratefully received.

Firstly, forget about ordering yourself a whopping great steak and devouring it single-handedly. Traditionaly Thai  dishes are shared. For starters, if you dine with a group of Thais, you'll have little chance to order the bovine of your choice, for that important task is left up to the senior women in the group. A skilled host will ensure that all palates are catered for, ordering fish or seafood, shrimp, chicken and several vegetarian dishes that encompass a full range of tastes. Spicy, sweet, salty and bitter will all be represented, often all in one dish - the perennial favourite tom yum gung. And don't expect them to come all at once. The amazing thing about dining out with a large group of Thais is that the food just keeps coming and coming. So, that brings us to the next point, don't tuck in like you've just crossed the Sahara. Thais eat slowly, enjoy the food, conversations, laughter and company. Each of you will be given a plate of rice and a soup bowl. Someone near you will ladle some soup into a bowl and you help yourself to the spread. But wait! Don't go shovelling a mountain of your favourite curry onto you plate, there'll be none left for the others. The polite way to do it is to take as much as you can eat in one or two mouthfuls. Savour it and then move onto another flavour. Thais like to pick at food, helping themselves to the dishes one spoon at a time. Take your time and try everything.

Now for the next problem. There are no knives on the table. Well, this is because all the food as been diced before cooking, pretty smart, eh? Traditionally, Thais ate with their hands, and in the rural areas or in some specialist restaurants this still occurs, especially when eating sticky rice and Isaan food. Nowadays they're far more refined and use a fork and spoon, but you might also find yourself using your mitts to eat with at Aroy Thai.
