Dai food!

Matt (one of the other foreigners here) is taking us all out to eat tonight. He's taking us to the Dai place--that is, a place that serves food from the Dai minority group. Well, so long as we don't go there during the water-splashing festival! More about that later. Anyway, the Dai people are really just Chinese Thai (or Thai-Chinese, like Thai-American?), and we're wondering if a real Thai restaurant--not those places in America where you burn your mouth off on Americanized stuff--would be the same as the Dai place--which is really, really good.

I guess we'll find out, if we go to a traditional Thai place in Thailand. We leave on Saturday already! I can't wait!
