A friend told us about another Thai temple in the South Bay area (in fact, the largest in the area) a while ago. But we never really got a chance to check it out since we’d enjoyed the temple in Berkley quite a bit. So over the weekend, we went there and checked it out. (Sorry, JASE+A. We couldn’t find you.)
The food at the Freemont temple is not quite the same as the one in Berkly, which makes the visit the more interesting. Even though there weren’t as many varieties, almost everything is cooked on the spot as you order it, and the selections are slightly different. I particularly enjoyed a type of noodle soup that I haven’t had since I left Thailand — I’ve never seen it made anywhere else outside of Thailand!! That noodle was GOOD!
Next week the temple is going to have a Loy Krathong Festival (floating “water lamps” ). In Thailand, Loy Krathong is a big deal. We might stop by and check out the festival.
