Kitchen Household Items In Thai

Most houses in Thailand have a Thai kitchen. In this type of kitchen, limited appliances are found, but Thai people prefer this set-up as they prefer to order food.

You can expect only a hot plate or small gas stovetop, a refrigerator, and a sink. Kitchen preferences for westerners are, of course, a western kitchen with all the relevant things they’re used to, like an oven, dishwasher, and a microwave.
