Would you like a little coffee in your sugar?

With dishes like tongue-scorching green curry and papaya salad, Thai food has a reputation for being spicy. But Thais also love a little sweetness. Spoonfuls of sugar are regularly added to season dishes, even curries and noodles. But few treats rival Thai coffee for sweetness.

At the very least, if the caffeine doesn’t wake you up, the sugar certainly will.
