Lopburi Monkey Banquet
Well, OK, Road Trips Foodies: this isn’t your usual foodie fest.
The edible goodies are intended for the resident long-tail macaque population of Lopburi, a provincial capital city about 150km north of Bangkok, Thailand (and hat-tip to Fest 300 for the details).
The festival takes place November 28, 2015, at the ruins of Phra Prang Sam Yot temple, starting with musical performances. Huge buffet tables are set out for the monkeys, featuring sticky rice, fruit salad, cashew nuts and other local delicacies. Oh, my!
