Later that trip, I tried a less famous restaurant serving the same dish and it was much better. Guess fame doesn't always equals quality.
That's the only stewed pork rice I tried in Thailand because I wanted to see what the big deal was about. It was okay la but really nothing special, especially because I eat more or less the same dish at home.

Wow he really just sent her a DM and ended up as her husband. Kinda sweet but I think that's just gonna encourage a lot of unwanted DMs in our inboxes. :x

Haha exactly my thoughts. Such an amazing story but for every one sincere guy like him, there are probably thousands of scammers and pervs.

Sounds similar to the grandmother divers of Jeju Island. Really admirable all the same.

20 baht per slice of freshly baked pizza from this uncle and his family. No wonder the queue doesn't end!

That's the first thing I thought of. Wonder if this type of diving is of the same cultural lineage since that part of Japan and Jeju are not too far away.
