Well digestion issues - not chillies but water, or even eating too much - have slowed my consumption of food. I am more comfortable now but quite disapointed. Black tea, white toast and honey for breakfast. we did manage another go at Sao Nam last night although the very delicious grilled salmon with dill marinated in fermented rice was ( you guessed it) farly rich. I only had a little. IT came with chillie sauce. Or maybe that was teh crispy prawn and chicken pancake. Most deliv cous was the tofu and, veg and rice hotpot. Restraint is working wonders on my taste buds.
We had a fine conversation with the urbane owner or manager of the restauraunt, who seemed to understand this interest in the spread of the chilli (which he had thought came from India). Them being ubiquitous and all.
Next photo of a chilli cutting kitchen hand in the street this morning (I need WiFi for that - maybe at the Jim Thompson shop up the road...)
