Have you ever tried the Thai Rose Apple, Mountain Apple or ‘Shumphoo’ as they call it in Thai…? A must try while you are with us at Centre Point Bangkok…
This shiny crunchy thirst-quenching refreshing juicy fruit is very common in Thailand. From bright red to pink or green, the Rose Apple is bell shaped and similar in texture to an apple but sweeter.

Most often eaten fresh but also nice mixed with shrimp in a spicy salad (ยำชมพู่)

This food is very low in Cholesterol and Sodium. It is also a good source of Niacin, Calcium and Potassium, and a very good source of Vitamin A and Vitamin C.
It is noteworthy that rose apples have low glycemic index. This makes it one of the few fruits, including grapefruits and apples that are good for diabetics. Rose apple benefits not only the diabetics, they are also considered good for the brains, liver and our blood.

The fresh air and vibrancy of Lumpini Park is 8 minutes walk to the south from Centre Point #Hotel Langsuan/Chidlom #Bangkok #Thailand. You can visit the Chidlom property at http://bit.ly/19lZxcK for more information about the Hotel.

Lumpini Park is an inner-city haven of tranquility, fresh air and shade – offering city dwellers the perfect connection to nature. Named after the birthplace of the Lord Buddha in Nepal, the park is more than half a million square kilometres big, and the habitat of various flora and fauna.

Historically, it dates back to the 1920s and was set to be an exhibition centre for Thai crafts and flower displays. Although this original vision was never fulfilled, Lumpini Park has over the years grown into the endearing centre for outdoor leisure activities for Bangkok residents, who would convene before and after sunset to enjoy a round of jog, light workout, aerobics and a host of other recreational activities.

Lumpini Park appeals to people of all ages today. The park is home to ever rarer indigenous flora, a forest park, and some quirky residents like the water monitor lizards… Looming beyond the immediate green, glimmering city skyscrapers punctuate the scene.

A bright and early morning stride or at dusk is the best time to go see grown-ups at play. On weekends, the space is animated by families and the cheery sounds of children. Some of the colorful recreations at the park include rowing, paddleboats, and a fun outdoor gym.

Kao Niaw Ma-Muang – Sweet Sticky Rice with Ripe Mango and Coconut Cream

Kao Niaw Ma-Muang – Sweet Sticky Rice with Ripe Mango and Coconut Cream, a photo by centrepointhospitality on Flickr.

This tantalizing dessert deserves to be the King of Thai sweets – Sweet Sticky Rice with Mango never fails to delight the taste buds.

Khao-neo Ma-muang is prepared by steaming Thai glutinous rice in rich coconut milk and syrup. The resulting sweet and creamy sticky rice is eaten with two certain types of tropical fruits; mango and durian. Since durian flavor is not often appreciated by many foreigners visiting Thailand due to its pungent smell and unique taste; Mango offers a universal choice with its exotic sweet and slightly sour flavor complementing the creamy and rich sweet rice just perfect! To top it off, a thick and rich coconut cream sauce with mildly salty flavor is poured onto the rice and mango to add more complexity to the flavor. Sometimes it is eaten with crispy cereal or sesame seeds as toppings.
A definite must eat – “aroi mak” meaning “very delicious” in Thai!

Thai desserts are often overlooked by many foreigners that delight in many other Thai foods. Thai restaurants tend to underrate the dessert experience, yet Thai desserts offer an authentic way to top off your Thai food meal.
