The Taste of Thailand Food Festival was
held on Sunday October 4
th 2009 at the Wat
Florida Dhammaram Buddhist Temple in Kissimmee.
The event began at 11:30am and ended
around 2:30pm. This was a annual fundraising
events and a showcase of the culinary
talents of those
who support the temple.
The sun shone upon arriving at the Festival.
Once you paid for your wristband, which allowed
you to enjoy the many varieties of delicious food
that was being served, you heard the sound
of
music. Some people danced as those in the
staging area sang or danced. Others spoke of
the activities and songs that were sang.
All of this took place as the numerous guests
smiled, walked around and enjoyed the festivities.
Many people, both Thai and American, could be
seen walking around or sitting in the shade in the
open area enjoying lunch while their kids played,
ran around or ate and had fun.
The food was from every part of Thailand, papaya
salad, pad thai, various noodles, soup and
more. The desserts were tasty too. In addition,
there were different types of beverages, arts,
crafts, plants, clothing, toys and more for those of
any age to enjoy or purchase. There was a
fruit
carving presentation and a Buddhist monk spoke
to individuals. A Flower Offering and Procession
took place at their recently completed Sacred
Pilgrimage Sites.
It was truly an enjoyable experience. We
left with a full stomach, lots of pictures and good
memories. I look forward to the next Taste of
Thailand in the future.
