My brother traveled to Thailand and arrived before New Year's eve. I asked him to get me some mango sticky rice at the airport. I knew this delicacy was available at Suvarnabhumi Airport and if properly handled will survive the trip back to Manila. Instead of buying just one though, my brother got three packs.
 |
| Three packs of mango & sticky rice from Bangkok |
 |
| This is the regular variety with white sticky rice. |
 |
| This one's got pandan flavored rice. |
 |
| And this one's got taro-flavored rice. |
 |
| I ate the pandan stick rice pack first and enjoyed this as my New Year's Eve dinner. |
 |
| The pack comes with pinipig (or rice crisps) and sweetened coconut milk. |
As I could not finish all 3 and I estimated they will probably spoil soon, I shared the other packs with our staff as it seemed I was the only one in our family who enjoyed the mango and sticky rice. I usually order this as dessert whenever I'm in other Southeast Asian cities. We have our version here and usually with 'suman' but its 'biko' that should be the equivalent of the sticky rice as shown in the photos above.
