Not all pizzas are created equal.

I've had mind blowing pizza. Just plain good pizza. Bad pizza. Strange pizza (chili cheese dog pizza...)... I've eaten a lot of different pizza.

Of all of these pizzas, not one of them combined mayonnaise and ketchup.

Maggie (the other farang teacher) and I were wondering the streets trying to find food and everything was closed! Finally, we spotted a pizza stand (we had never seen it before).  Two teenagers giddily take our order. One medium shrimp pizza and one medium cheese. We wait anxiously on the curb while they place it into a steam based oven.  

While waiting, we spot a sausage stand and Maggie claims I have to try one. Thai sausage is spicy and delicious! So, we buy two. 

The young girl flags us over, excitedly letting us know our pizza is ready. We pay and walk on.

While we scope out a spot to sit, we take out the sausages on a stick to eat. I was so excited as I love sausages! 

This was... Different. It was a Thai sausage, noodle dish rolled up in sausage form. It was filled with veggies, pork and glass noodles. Maggie proclaimed this is not at all what she has had before! So, I still need to sample Thai spicy sausage. This was just okay.

So, now we are excited for our pizza.  We find a spot to sit by the lake, open up our pizzas and start to dig in.

Mine was: crust, a layer of mayonnaise, cheese, ketchup drizzled on top.

Maggie's was that with shrimp baked inside.

I managed to eat half (American size personal pizza), Maggie took three bites and have up.

Of all the American trends they could've picked up on... They choose mayonnaise and ketchup... And put them on pizza.


Don't be fooled by its delicious exterior!
