Our budget for food and water was $12 per day in both Phuket and Bangkok. We found that most restaurants in Phuket (and there are lots!) served the same staple Thai food: fried riced, fried noodles, noodles in soup, and curry. Restaurants also offered many Western dishes to satisfy any cravings for cheese burgers, steaks, and even fish and chips. Although Thailand is well-known for their spicy dishes, most foods are served mild with the ability to add fiery hotness using chili peppers, oils, and sauces.

We got a little tired of the repetitive menus around and decided to splurge on our last night in Thailand. We dined very well at Sawasdee in downtown Bangkok. I had the green curry with beef that was served deliciously creamy and piping hot. It put all the other curries I had on the trip to shame.
