Green Papaya Salad ^___^

yum yum ! This traditional vietnamese papaya salad is a simple combination of shredded green papaya, coarsely with basil, shrimp, and add on to it with spicy fish sauce. The tartness of the dressing brings out the smoky, salty flavors of the shrimp and the peanuts add crunch and nuttiness. I definitely think this is one of the best appetizer out there. If you haven't try this yet I recommend you do so. Hale Vietnam which located on 12th ave of kaimuki served one of the best vietnamese papaya salad out there. :)

A little introduction about Hainan Chicken Rice, it is originated from a small island of Hainan in Vietnam. It's popularity can be on menus of vietnamese restaurants around the world. The important ingredient in this dish is definitely the chicken and the sauce. You would simply eat this with jasmine rice but I prefer to eat it with brown rice. I love the sauce for this dish. The sauce includes ginger, fish sauce, thai soy sauce and soybean. So goood!!!!!Youll be amazed how simple this dish look with such an amazing taste.
