Southeast Asia - Thai Cuisine While we have often introduced foreign cuisine, sometimes we reach far outside of Asia so decided this time to bring the deliciousness of Thai cuisine to the kids! Some of the delicious items include our own must order favorites in pad thai, green curry, and the must have mango sticky rice. We were also able to source Thai ice tea from Baganhood, made with delicious cashew mylk. Interestingly enough for us, some of our own staff and Big Friend volunteers have never heard of or had mango sticky rice - we were also glad to have to introduced them to one of our favorite desserts and hope we did it justice! Afternoon Tea (English / Indian / Japanese A spot of tea anyone? This time we got our thinking hats on and prepared another treat for the indigenous youth of ChingChuan. Since we could not make food with them we prepped an extravagant afternoon tea from three difference cultures which we introduced to them. This included mocha strawberries and matcha tea from Japan, silver tinned foil treats and chai lattes from India, and our favorite that being the most decadent a mixture of English and United States tea time sins. Waffles with coconut whip cream, fresh strawberries, grapes, blueberries, small bite size sandwiches and gluten free blueberry muffins catered by Ooh Cha Cha, quiches from JiangShan eatery. We would love to replicate this to our other locations so more kids can experience a similarly decadent afternoon. CUISINE & CULTURE
