That tour of Thai Town
The mangosteen is my holy grail of untasted tropical fruit. They don't grow in the US. When I've traveled, I've missed the season. I have been looking for mangosteens for something like 20 years, with no luck.
Today, in honor of Anthony Bourdain, I had the morning glory stems and ground pork with olives at Ruen Pair, then walked across the way to my favorite Thai sweet shop, Bhan Kanom Thai. It was their 20th anniversary, and I got a free tote bag. And there, for the first time in my life, I found mangosteens.
Thanks, Tony.
