Chiang Mai (Day 2) - Thailand
Two more stops for the day, touristy stops I must say. Silver and royal jelly and birds nest cottage industry visits. Pressure to buying was not so bad in the silver outlet, but at the latter, royal jelly and birds nest both in one outlet, the young doll sales staff was quite a forceful smiling humble thing until my guy friend didn't mind paying a couple of hundreds. Anyway I am in no way disputing the health power of royal jelly or birds nest. Go ahead, buy all you want, pay a couple of hundreds for healthy is wealth attraction in Chiang Mai.

Pucuk Ubi Masak Lemak (Tapioca leaf In Coconut Gravy)
Growing
up in the government quarters of Sungei Besi, just across from the army camp,
I've always felt a deep connection to Malay culture. Surrounded by Malay
neighbors, my siblings and I found ourselves immersed in Bahasa Malaysia more
than Tamil. It was here that my love affair with Malay cuisine began, nurtured
by the tantalizing aromas wafting from neighboring kitchens.
But it's curious how my Indian friends shy away from Malay dishes, as if I'm an Indian alien for loving Malay cuisine. Unlike me, they seem content to stick to their familiar Indian fare. Yet, I find myself drawn to the rich flavors of Malay food, much to their bemusement.
