FA LL IN LOV E W I TH TH A I FOOD Introducing Thailand’s most respected food guru

SEP - OCT 2018


Dear Readers, What are the top five reasons for visiting Thailand? The food? The people? The culture? The shopping? The nightlife? But then what about the capital, the language, the markets, the festivals, the temples, the beaches, the diving, the wildlife, the adventure, and more. Ask anyone who’s been here and they’ll admit that it would be very hard to limit the reasons to such a small number. If you don’t already know this, then it’s time you found out. And it’s because there are so many reasons that we’ve got an endless list of resources, some featured here, to present to you in this edition of Share! Enjoy the adventure both on the pages of a book and on your travels here in Thailand!

Assistant Professor Srisamorn Kongpun is more than extraordinary. Despite being busy with non-stop engagements as a teacher, advisor, and Evaluation Board for Standard Thai Cooks (EBSTC) member - a job that takes her to every corner of the world to test Thai cooks for certification - this most versatile chef also shares her passion and wisdom with the general public through TV appearances and books. Among her over 20 successful cook books, her English titles, including such favourites as Thai Street Food and The Complete Thai Cookbook, are proudly published by Asia Books. Most recently, she has been recognized for her long years of dedicated literary work with the highly coveted Narathip Award for 2017. It’s no wonder Channel News Asia chose her for its special series “Super Octogenarians” as she truly is one of Asia’s spunkiest seniors challenging the younger generations to follow her lead!

Industrial heritage links us to our past and can affect our future. This book, with work from practically every continent, highlights the redevelopment of under-utilized or discarded industrial structures, whose latest metamorphoses have imbued them with new purposes. These case studies and additional specially-authored essays make this book a strong informational reference for architects, researchers, and decision-makers.

This inspirational book showcases a range of rehabilitated projects. Rehabilitations of living spaces are often reanimations of impractical, obsolete constructions into ones of contemporary standards that maintain what might still be useful or liked about them. Many add comfort and increase utility and value to the property. While extensive work is sometimes required, these rehabilitations can result in stunning transformations.
