Night market eye candy

Chiang Mai, Thailand
Sunday, December 27, 2009

It seems that our guest house is located in the middle of a neighborhood that turns into an evening market every Sunday evening. Starting at about 5pm, all the streets surrounding our guest house are closed to traffic and fill with food stalls and vendors of every kind. Lots of cheap trinkets but also some wonderful local goods (fabric, clothing, etc) are for sale.

And then there are the food stalls.

1) Noodles on massive banana leaves
2) Chinese-style dim sum
3) Bamboo stuffed with sticky rice
4) Roasted bananas
5) Dessert selection
