Don wai

        These are some pictures from our final project of first year students lives. We took these photos from ‘ตลาดริมน้ำวัดดอนหวาย’ (talad rimnam wat donwai) or ‘Donwai riverside market’. Our project studied the effect of developments, when local floating market became well known riverside market. This market is famed for the local products, delicious Thai desserts and ‘Ped Palo’ or 'Pot-stewed duck' which is the key to development, since the newspaper published the column about the incomparable deliciousness of pot-stewed duck from Donwai riverside market. We took a lot of photos but I cannot upload all of them here. The files are too big. If you have a chance, we invite you all to come and visit (and try plenty of food) here @ Talad rimnam wat Donwai.

I am not sure does it have the name in English or not. But in Thai we call ‘Khanom sodsai’. it can be compared to Japanese Mochi, but use the sweet coconut instead of red beans.  The outer layer made from flour and filling is made of coconut, coconut milk, sugar. Then we wrap each one with banana leaf, and steam. 

'SWEETS'

I don't know the word in English for this dessert as well. It's like  a combination between cake and pie. The shape is looking cake, but there is sweet bean filling inside and the outer layer tastes like pie.

classic style of Thai-tricycle.
