» This week, I’d like to take a look at another part of Thailand’s South. I went there recently and took a circular route, starting in Trang and going on to Phatthalung, Songkhla and Satun, then returning to Trang without retracing my original route.

On song in Songkhla
Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 18/05/2014
» Last week I began a tour of the South in Phatthalung. Today I’d like to continue on to Songkhla by crossing the bridge and elevated road across Thalay Noi in Phatthalung to Amphoe Ranote in Songkhla. The road is wide and smooth, and the route is direct.

Keeping a keen edge
B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 13/04/2014
» One thing that annoys anyone who likes to cook is to discover, in the middle of preparing a dish, that the knife they need to use isn’t sharp. It is even worse if they don’t have a sharpener, or that, if they do, that the knife is still dull after they try to sharpen it.

At rice rainbow's end
B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 20/04/2014

As the natural environment, the weather, water sources, and the character of the soil have changed over time, rice, too, has changed naturally.

» A growing availability of freshwater fish is making them mealtime darlings in Thailand.

Making the most of everything
B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 23/03/2014

This economising does not mean penny pinching to cut expenses or using cheap ingredients, and then preparing only small amounts of food so that there is none left over. Real cooks do not think that way.

Use your noodle
B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 30/03/2014
» Here is a phenomenon unique in a way that only noodle connoisseurs will appreciate — a place where kui tio restaurants of many different kinds exist in the same area. Each has its own distinctive character. All were established many years ago. Each can boast kitchen skills that will be vouched for by anyone who can recognise a good bowl of noodles.

Taking a breath
B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 23/02/2014
» Most people accept the idea of Chiang Mai as the capital of the North, perhaps because it resembles Bangkok in many ways. Both cities have circular roads running around them, and both have intersections with tunnels and pedestrian overpasses. Central Chiang Mai has more condominiums and big hotels than any other city in Thailand except Bangkok.
