A mobile market, or rod pum puang, will find you. These shops on wheels, named in part after the Thai word for brunch puang, delivers fresh ingredients straight to your doorstep.

» When it comes to travelling, everybody has his or her own specific purpose. Some might just want to stay trendy and go to popular places. Some travel to escape their hectic, fast-moving daily routine and probably to take a real break. Some travel just because they are curious about the unknown territory and maybe because they love challenges. Those who go on business trips usually don't have much time to explore.

» In my column two weeks ago, I talked about the challenge of selecting the right vegetable oil. I mentioned that we should try to avoid purchasing fried foods from vendors as they are known to put the oil on high heat and reuse it, creating harmful chemical reactions. This is common knowledge, but people still can't help but rely on ready-to-eat meals.

» This week I'd like to persuade you to love tamarind trees. If you don't have one, grow one. If you already have one, don't ever cut it down. Tamarind trees are remarkably versatile and robust and don't require very much attention. They can even survive heavy floods. Tamarind trees are excellent species for shades. Sometimes sunlight barely gets through. Flesh from mature pods is just what you need to make tamarind paste. You just have to squeeze it well.
