Having the Thai meal... the Thai way
A typical Thai meal consists of rice with many complementary dishes served concurrently. Dishes; such as, stir-fried vegetables, soup (Tom Yam Kung or Tom Kha Kai, for instance), and curry, spicy salads; such as, spicy minced pork salad(lap mu) or spicy vermicelli salad (Yam Wunsen), and one or more basic sauces usually appear in a full Thai meal. Rice, either ordinary or glutinous, is served on individual plates. The rest of the dishes are put in the middle of the table for everyone to share. Desserts may consist of fresh fruits or one of the many traditional Thai sweets.
