Weekend Edition food commentator Bonny Wolf offers her predictions of what we'll eat in the new year.
Asia is the new Europe. It's been gradual: from pan-Asian, Asian fusion and Asian-inspired to just deciding among Vietnamese, Korean, Tibetan and Burmese for dinner.
Should we have the simple food of the Thai plateau or the hot, salty, sour foods of southern Thailand?
The new flavors of the year won't come from the kitchens of chefs trained at Le Cordon Bleu. More likely, they'll trickle up from Asian street foods.
