Pad Gra Pao Gai Kai Dao

One of the most common dishes to eat on the streets of Bangkok is a choice of meat stir fried with holy basil (gra pao), put over rice and eaten with a fried egg (kai dao) on the side.

When you can’t think of anything else to eat, pad gra pao kai dao always comes to the rescue – it’s one of the most common orders off the Bangkok Dollar Menu!
