Gums - a bit before your time, we did an official visit to Korat and were entertained to lunch in the, then, open sided dining area. The meal was served on a series of 'platters', on one of which was a selection of pale round objects in , what turned out to be, a truly eye-wateringly hot sauce. I asked the chap next to me what the dish was. "Cobra !, caught outside the Mess this morning!" This was said with the usual Thai charming smile, so I know not whether it was so, or not. Texture like chicken but taste undiscernible through the haze of pain induced by the 'sauce' !
