We hope you enjoy the way we created this video, and take a moment to share your comments in the form below. The people in the hut are preparing khao tom madt (sticky rice with banana wrapped in banana leaf) in the traditional style, cooked in a large stacked steamer. There are three generations here making food together. In Thai language the word "jai" means heart. Most Thai words that describe an emotion or feeling include the word Jai. Hundreds of such "heart" words in Thai language exist, here are a few examples: Khao Jai (inside heart) means "understand". Toke Jai (fallen heart) means "surprise". Noi Jai (small heart) means "unappreciated". Jai Haeng (dry heart) means "sad". Jing Jai (true heart) means "sincere". The song "Closer to the Heart" by Canadian rock group Rush reminds us of the way food is patiently prepared, shared, and enjoyed in the Thai culture, so we created this video of various friends, family and vendors we know in Bangkok and Kanchanaburi.

7:27 PM Thank you so much for posting these videos! I lived in northern Thailand for 1 year and I miss it so much. These videos bring back so many fond memories with my Thai friends. They will always be in my heart.

12:16 AM I was hating my Grandma for a long time about the Kao Tom Madt. She got us up early every morning and make them fresh for early market northern part of Thailand for we can earn our lunch money at school. Now i really miss her.

9:35 AM I like that you included this nice Canadian song but I miss your dubbing over but including the actual talking and street noise like in your street vendor videos. Your videos are wonderful and well done. Thank you so much for sharing with us. I have been sharing your web site with my cooking friends and family. Take care.
