The best ruammit ever, in Gat Luang's Don Lam Yai Market
In addition to our cross-country American travels in March and April, for the last few months we've been in the thick of a time-consuming project (more of which we'll speak/write later). At any rate -- that's our excuse, or one of them, for the shortage of new content here. I (Robyn) hope to have my life back, and to return to the blog with something worth waiting for, next week.
In the meantime, here is our feature story on the markets of our beloved Gat Luang neighborhood, in Chiang Mai, for the April 2012 issue of SBS Feast magazine (Australia). We hope this piece conveys how special this place has become to us -- a second home, really. (Click each page to enlarge.)
Many thanks to the folks at Feast for doing such a beautiful job with the layout. We look to forward to working with them again.
For those of you heading up to Chiang Mai, the Hit List on the final page highlights some of our fave eats and shopping spots in the 'hood.
More next week. Thanks for hanging in there.
Excellent read and amazing photos. Reading your post makes me wanna go to Chiang Mai as well. I have never been to Thailand before, but I have read so many good things about it.
