Thai food

The charm of Thai food

Thai cuisine has become really popular over the last few years. Known for the various kinds of vegetables used as ingredients, people have come to love the food.  Most dishes are curry based and include a variety of vegetables.      Most ingredients in Thai cuisine are small quantities of fat and meat. This means that most Thai people are very fortunate in their intake of fat being low compared with the Western society.

Thai food offers many benefits:

  • Food values – obtained from all the ingredients of vegetables, spices and herbs.
  • Herb and spice values – from main ingredients of herbs and spices.
  • Folk wisdom and art and culture values – every Thai dish has its own unique natural flavour.

The flavour from Thai food comes from the lovely herbs and spices that are added to the dishes. All these flavours are natural ingredients with smells that make your mouth water in anticipation of tasting them.

The history of Pimms No.1

James Pimm London’s dandiest city gents loved to partake in oysters and gin. But with its bitter tang gin was knocked back quickly and not savoured. James Pimm was a shellfish monger who owned a famous central London ‘Oyster Bar’ in 1823. After watching his customers drink the gin quickly with the oysters he devised the Pimm’s ‘house cup’ which was a drink flavoured with liquers and fruit extract. It was this palatable ‘gin-sling’ that kick started the Pimms story.
