Rejoice, Curry-aholics! Songkran is coming! What is Songkran, you ask? Why, Thai New Years. And it just so happens that our fair metropolis has the largest Songkran festival in the United States.
Sweet!
And if you’re not sold on it yet, you will be when you find out it’s completely free!
Double sweet!
On April 13th, Hollywood Blvd will essentially become a portal to Bangkok. Two stages, over 60 stands, a parade, fashion show, Muay Thai Boxing… And the real selling point: The First Annual Curry Festival!!!
As the Thai Community Development Center explains:
Not only will the Thai curry be the super star that day, all kinds of curry related products, regardless of their national origins, shape, color, spice level, texture will be worshipped. All the international curry products will also have a chance to compete for the CURRY KING title. In this event people can try different kind of curry dishes, desserts, and snacks that are made with curry. In addition to that, the participants can learn how to make easy and flavorsome curry dishes and desserts demonstrated by star chef Jet Tila and others. People will also find unique and special curry ingredients from around the world that they have never seen and tasted before.
You can bet that Citzine will be there, sampling the yumminess and documenting the whole event.
So for you Thai-o-philes out there, be sure not to miss this event!
