Main courses include Tom Yum Kung, a hot and sour<br \/>\nsoup with shrimp and chicken; and Panaeng Gai, a spicy<br \/>\nchicken curry dish served with Jasmine rice.<br \/>\n<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<span>Cost of the dinner is $14 and reservation requests should<br \/>\nbe e-mailed to Daphne Ingene at ceshare@olemiss.edu by<br \/>\nMarch 3.<br \/>\n<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<span>Ingene, a native of Hong Kong and graduate student in<br \/>\ncounseling education, is the dinner coordinator. The Cook!<br \/>\nEat! Share! organization was created in fall 2007 by UM&#8217;s<br \/>\nCounseling Center, Office of International Programs and<br \/>\nDepartment of Family and Consumer Sciences. The<br \/>\nmulticultural organization includes students and faculty<br \/>\nspouses representing countries of Western Europe, Asia and<br \/>\nSouth America, as well as the United States.<br \/>\n<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<span>Ingene said the event uses food as a means to explain<br \/>\ndifferent cultures, traditions and customs. Participants<br \/>\nwill be exposed to Thai music, traditional clothing and<br \/>\ndiscussions on culture.<br \/>\n<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<span>&#8220;For instance, Thai food uses a lot of spices, and the<br \/>\nreason is that the country is located so close to the<br \/>\nequator where it is very hot,&#8221; she said. &#8220;So, they need<br \/>\nstrong seasoning to make food appetizing.&#8221;<br \/>\n<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<span>She added that the overwhelmingly positive response to the<br \/>\norganization&#8217;s first event, which featured Chinese food and<br \/>\ncultural lessons, demonstrated an interest in additional<br \/>\nCook! Eat! Share! events. The organization is planning<br \/>\nevents featuring food from Brazil in April and Ecuador in<br \/>\nMay.<br \/>\n<\/span>\n<\/p>\n<p>\n<span>For more information or for assistance related to a<br \/>\ndisability, contact Ingene at ceshare@olemiss.edu or<br \/>\n662-915-3784.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>OXFORD, Miss. &#8211; Authentic Thai cuisine is to be featured in the second civic dinner hosted by the Cook!
