This morning, we went to the Morning Market. The market is always bustling with people bargaining with vendors and selling goods. The market opens at 5:00am and vendors start to pack up their stands at 11:00am. We went around 9:00 am, and it was pretty busy. Food we ate at the market included sticky rice on a stick, coconut pancakes, and fried mung bean cakes. The trip to the morning market was great.
This is us eating food we found in the market. Me and my dad are eating sticky rice on a stick while Denise is eating a seaweed snack. In my opinion, the sticky rice on a stick was very good but a little salty for me. Denise loved the seaweed snacks.
This is me walking through the market. The market has everything from fried fish to jewelry to fresh lettuce and spinach.
This was a tent that was practically all chili peppers!! It had like 12 kinds of chili peppers. Even looking at them made me feel like I just ate something really spicy. I was way too scared to try one. Maybe next time (probably not). 🙂
These are coconut pancakes. They are made from condensed coconut milk. They have a little bit of a weird texture but they taste really good. They usually come in a banana leaf just like practically all other snacks. Coconut pancakes are a great snack.
At a lot of tents in the market sell rolled up banana leaf with orange flowers on them. At first we did not know what they were but soon learned that these are offerings that Buddhist people give to the Buddha. Flowers represent purity in Buddhism.
