Each of my friends gave me a mission for my trip to Hawaii. Good ole Karl told me I needed to find the best Mai Thai in Hawaii (or at least on the Big Island which is where I was.)

As long as attention is focused on Chiang Mai’s distinctive flavors, how about a recipe for northern Thai laap? You know this dish, right? It’s one of my most favorite of favorites.
