the hostel where we stayed in chiang mai had these very intriguing handmade “parcels” of banana leaf, just laying on a basket on the breakfast table… what were they?

curious to find out, we removed the pin, unwrapped two layers of leaves and whoa! nested inside, we discovered a spoonful of sticky rice, with pudding on top! it was great, and just small enough to provide a quick sweet bite.

cool packaging + sweet content is a winner combo in my book. after we discovered what they were, we noticed how quick they flew off the breakfast choices and started to secured ours early in the day. :D
