Mexican Night

Out of the first 7 Thais I asked, only two had ever eaten Mexican food before. Coming from America, that was a hard concept to grasp. I probably used to eat Mexican food, or some American version of it, once a week. Now I eat it once every few months. Needless to say, we were all excited about Mexican Night.

The week before, we made pinatas. And this week, we found a YouTube video to show everyone what we do with a pinata. But we decided to change things up a bit and play Thai style. So we blindfolded the first participant with a bandanna and put a cowboy hat on his head. Each person had 20 seconds to box the pinata, Muay Thai boxing style, until it broke and all the candy fell out.

Everyone liked the food, but the cinnamon rice pudding was a little strange for some.
