Slicing homemade Shan-style tofu, made with lentils instead of soybeans. Here in Mae Sot it's usually made with powder and tastes a bit like gelatin when finished, but the homemade is delicious. We had a huge portion of tofu salad for dinner, one plate spicy and one "original."

Randomly chose this shopkeeper to lodge with and it turned out she was my guide's stepmother's niece. They'd never met before.
