    Where's the beef?

    B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 14/07/2013

    » There are always reasons for choosing the specific meat to be used in making a given Thai dish, and generally they have remained the same over the centuries. Khanom jeen nam ya (fermented rice noodles with a spicy pureed fish-based sauce) must be made with fresh fish _ dried fish, dried shrimp or pork won't do. Tom jeud bai tamlueng (a bland soup that includes the shoots of a morning glory-like vine) has to be made with minced pork, not minced fish or chicken, and kaeng som made with any kind of vegetable calls for fish and nothing else as the protein. Pork and chicken are out.

    Stop the madness _ let roadside trees reach their full glory

    B Magazine, Normita Thongtham, Published on 14/07/2013

    » I was travelling along Rama IV Road last week when I saw that some of the Pterocarpus indicus, known in Thai as pradoo, trees on the roadside had flowers. Pradoo usually flower in April and it is now July, so these were late bloomers. Especially spectacular was a tree across the streets from Chamchuri Square. It was small but it completely shrouded by flowers, which was unusual as pradoo shed their leaves two or three months after the end of the rainy season and develop new ones before or during blooming time in the summer, so the golden flowers are always accompanied by lush green leaves.

    Transplanted Bangkokian in Washington

    B Magazine, Richard Mcleish, Published on 14/07/2013

    » Gossiping, girl's nights out and gold-digging crushes are instantly recognisable tropes of the popular literary genre of female commercial literature, known as chick-lit. Now we can add som tam and spice to the list because the genre has a new Thai counterpart. Tichakorn Khroopan Hill's debut novel, From Bangkok with Despair: (mis)adventures in DC, on the surface seems to retread the stiletto-punctured paths of the genre with blind faith, but the subtleties of having a Thai author (and protagonist) at the narrative helm gently surface like bubbles in a big mango Bellini. So how has Tichakorn brought a distinctly Thai flavour to the book and how much will she confess is autobiographical?

    » Every fashion-conscious capital in the world has its proud face of chick-lit. London has Bridget Jones and her diary, New York has Carrie Bradshaw and her well-publicised sex life. So is the world ready for a Thai face to take up the mantle?
