Paet Riu Delights at Luang Pho Sothon Temple Market: Don't Miss These Three! Buy Them to Take Home and You'll Come Back for More. For those traveling to pay respects to Phra Phutthasothon, commonly known as Luang Pho Sothon, one of Thailand's sacred Buddha images, across the road from the temple is a small market full of delicious food. sookjai Holiday has visited Luang Pho Temple many times, shopping for delicious treats and bringing them back to enjoy at the hotel in Paet Riu.
But there are 3 things you shouldn't miss at all...
But first, let me digress. sookjai Holiday travels all over Thailand and rarely sees places where there are still traditional dances performed as offerings (the only ones that come to mind now are at the Erawan Shrine at Ratchaprasong Intersection and the San Phra Kan Shrine in Lopburi Province). Besides Luang Pho Sothon Temple in Paet Riu, there are still traditional dances offered to Luang Pho (by the Prajuab Charoensilp Dance Troupe). Even if you don't have a personal reason to make an offering to Luang Pho, you don't have to pay to watch. You can sit and watch for free. The auntie said you can take pictures, but please don't take videos. sookjai Holiday quickly grabbed the phone to take pictures because these traditional dances are becoming increasingly rare.
The first delicious treat at Luang Pho Temple Market is Khanom Jak (grilled coconut sticky rice cakes). "Sweet, fragrant, rich, and delicious" is the short definition of Paet Riu's Khanom Jak. Once you try the first piece, you won't be able to stop. After enjoying the Khanom Jak, don't forget to buy fresh palm sugar in a plastic cup, which is fragrant, delicious, and has a sweet and cool taste. One cup is never enough; you'll definitely come back for more.
Another thing that sookjai Holiday always buys is seasoned squid, whether it's squid strips or ground squid. I can say that it's really chewy and delicious, just like the golden turtle squid sold in 7-Eleven.
For those traveling to worship Phra Phutthasothon on weekends, Luang Pho Temple Market has many other delicious and tempting foods for sale, depending on your taste. sookjai Holiday, by สวัสดี ออนไลน์ สำนักพิมพ์, recommends these 3 as must-try delights.
