Som Tam madness!!





Today a Som Tam (Green Papaya Salad) competition was held at the shelter. Som Tam is traditional Northern Thai food that all the children love to eat. The competition saw 3 children from four teams up against each other to see who made the best Som Tam. They were scored on taste, teamwork, cleanliness and neatness, appearance (display). The competition also saw the Japanese Superstar join in the fun with the green team.

Prior to the Som Tam competition the Japanese superstar took part in some traditional Akha dancing with some of the older children. The younger children also displayed their talents to the cameras.

Afterwards the children were treated to Som Tam for dinner.
