NEW RECIPE: Thai KFC's Best Item!⁠

You may find it surprising, but KFC is the most popular fast food chain in Thailand. And Thai KFC's most popular item (and my fave) is the Spicy Chicken Rice Bowl or khao yum gai zabb!⁠

I had it during my recent trip and I was inspired to make a copycat version at home, and I'm happy to report it's even better than the original!⁠ The first pic is my recreation, second pic is the one I had from KFC in Thailand, and 3rd pic is their website pic. I'll let you decide which one looks best, lol.⁠

I visited their shop on Granville Island and picked out the fabric, the straps and the style myself! We ended up with what I think are the perfect HTK aprons in my two favourite colours, red and denim.

S&R Denim is local company based here in Vancouver, and they’ve been making professional quality aprons for many renowned Vancouver restaurants.

❤️Best part: The aprons come in two lengths, standard and short. I also made sure they’re available in two widths, standard and narrow. So if you’re a smaller person like me and often find one-size things too big, I got you! (I’m wearing the short and narrow).
