Phuket Pics (Food & Art)

This post is almost a week overdued. Janielle is posting her Phuket pics chronologically, I'm posting mine thematically.

Starting off with the theme of yummy-licious FOOD and vibrant colours and shapes of ART. Feast your eyes on these pics...

You would have thought that this was a sculpture. But no, it was a FLAT painting, on a FLAT piece of canvas. I only had one chance on this shot bcos the seller was quite pissed off. He yelled "50 Baht for one picture!" Of course I didn't pay. So you can say I "stole" this shot

.

Sherene was imitating the tiger in the painting. Which one looks meaner?

.

Our favourite yummy-licious beef noodle soup

.

The fried noodle's not bad too! This one came with pork

.

These are 'lighted' paper balls. Not sure how they made them, but I really liked their vibrant colours at night

.

Closer view of these paper balls

.

These paintings (cloths) by the roadside caught my eye. Loved the effects of the lightings on their colours

.Seeing me snapping away, the seller amazingly unwrapped his latest masterpiece and invited me to take a closer shot. Needless to say, I happily obliged!

.

Carved soaps. I've always loved this fine art shapes and colours. Handbags in the background

.

Rings. Stones. I don't know their names. Andrew does. I just love shooting them!

.

Depth of field on the rings of stones

.

Andrew explaining to Janielle on how to value the stones. And Sherene darling, touching and seeing is good enough, ya?

.

My Thai pineapple fried rice with seafood. I miss this dish! I liked it with a little tom yam soup and/or thai green curry gravy over it!

.

Barbequed pork. Somehow I didn't manage to try this. But looking at this pic, I could almost smell it!

.

More spicy pork. Didn't manage to try this either. Ps John loved this so much that he got them frozen and smuggled back to Malaysia

.

Mango sticky rice. Managed to shoot this before it was finished! Sherene looked all over for this, but in the end, we found this little stall by accident when on our way to a dive shop. Another authentic Thai dish

.

Seafood dinner on our last night in Phuket. We paid little (around RM25 per person) for the dinner. Shot pics of some of the dishes

.

La la
.

Juicy fried prawns

.

Fried stingray. Loved it when dipped into its spicy sauce

.

Barbequed barracuda. This was just one half
.

Another half of the barracuda was cooked in Thai green curry
.

This was what's left of the baracuda at the end of the meal!

More pics coming in no time. Click back often ya?
