With a growing gastronomic tourism industry, the Tourism Authority of Thailand has launched a new Hello Taste Thailand guidebook to whet the appetite of visitors planning their next trip.

The guide outlines a series of programs that will leave guests hungry for more, including the one-day ‘Taste the More Natural
