Searching for Sa Nga Fish at Mae Sariang Market, the most beautiful garden coffee in Thailand, traveling Mae La Noi (Hen Tai), haircut and news hunting in Mae Hong Son, climbing Don Kong Mu Pagoda, Jok Sawoei in Mae Hong Son, sleeping in Sri Saeng Dao cinema in Khun Yuam, Kabong Tai Yai snack, Khun Yuam - Mae Hong Son viewpoint, Tai Yai / Burmese food. Let's first look at the meaning of the food name. The word Kabong means pumpkin. The pumpkin is coated with batter and fried. The food is crispy with a yellowish color as shown in the picture.

The crispiness and deliciousness come from the batter mixture, called 'Pamang' in Burmese, not 'Pengmang'. This is another type of Tai Yai snack. Nowadays, besides pumpkin, other ingredients are also used. What I saw in Khun Yuam was raw papaya coated and fried. When eating, dip it in a sauce made from tamarind juice, boiled sugarcane juice, salt, ground peanuts, and garlic, giving a sour, sweet, creamy, and salty flavor all at once.

I met the Kabong seller while traveling in Khun Yuam. Besides selling Kabong, she also offers Tai Yai and local dishes. Watch the clip below. In Khun Yuam, historically, most people are Tai Yai, which makes their food and traditions uniquely Tai Yai. Besides this evening food stall I took you to, if you wake up early and visit the Khun Yuam morning market, you can enjoy a variety of Tai Yai snacks and dishes to your heart's content.
