After touring the local Thai food market, we headed back to the The Four Seasons Cooking School.
The facility is beautiful and we had the best time cooking while watching the monsoon pouring down.

“Kaow Soi Gai” is not something easily found on Thai restaurant menus in America.
It was my favorite dish in Chiang Mai and all of Thailand.

| Of course we made an offering before eating. |
The good news is that the recipe is below and you can make your own at home.
There's a Japanese market on 17th and U that has most of the ingredients you'll need or you can venture out the H Mart.
