Satisfy yourself with the best Thai street food!
It’s 4 pm. Down a side soi in Yaowarat, just off Charoen Krung, there are already a few hungry men waiting. They may have even brought their own chairs (I can’t verify this, but it looked like it). Khao Gaeng Jake Puey ข้าวแกงเจ๊กปุ้ย (เจ้เฉี๋ย), a serious Bangkok street food stall, is beginning to unfold down the […]
While Terminal 21 food court offers some decent food for great prices in Bangkok, there are many other dining options in the Asoke area. Just a 10 minute walk from Terminal 21, and across the street is Ran Krua Tong Mai (ร้านครัวทองใหม่), a Thai restaurant that serves both khao gaeng (ข้าวแกง) and chicken soup noodles. At lunch, […]
Throughout my entire life, I’ve been a little more than obsessed with all forms or Japanese food, and while I absolutely love sashimi, I’m also a huge fan of Japanese curry. Luckily in Bangkok there are a few places to get Japanese curry, Gold Curry Bangkok, being one I ate at a few months back. […]
Eating Japanese golden curry is about as comforting as being in your mother’s arms. I’m not kidding. I’d had it before a few times in Hawaii, and a number of times I made Japanese golden curry from a box mix (which by the way is pretty tasty too) during university. It’s not a pungently strong […]
Chicken w/ Ginger ไก่ผัดขิง My ginger love affair began in East Africa where I used to guzzle bottles of potent ginger soda known as Stoney Tangawizi (the best soda on earth in my opinion). Gai pad king (ไก่ผัดขิง), or chicken with ginger, is a fairly common dish in Thai cuisine. A little obvious, but I especially like […]
Stir Fried Stink Bean ผัดสะตอ I know, stink bean is not exactly a glamourous name for these precious beans, but I can assure you, they are one of the best ingredients on the planet. Also known as petai bean or bitter bean is a common southern Thai food. I like to eat them stir fried with […]
Hor mok is an excellent Thai dish that’s a combination of ingredients brought together in a thick coconut cream curry. On the streets, hor mok is normally served in small banana leaf wrappers while at nicer restaurants you can order it right in a coconut!

One of my favorite reasons for being such a Thai food connoisseur is that I can eat seafood for just about every meal if I choose. While I was growing up, it was only on special occasions that I’d get to eat shrimp, squid or even fish. But in Thailand, things are different. I eat […]
Though I’m normally a rice man, I often dream of Khanom Jeen Nam Ya Kati. Khanom Jeen are soft (lightly fermented) rice noodles. Nam Ya Kati is a kind of curry made with heavy coconut milk, lots of spices and chilies. This southern style variation also includes little pieces of fish within the curry. There […]
