Craving Thai Street Food

[bucknaway]

As my trip draws near, I am starting to crave the treats that can be found on the streets of Thailand. I can't wait to taste the Donner Kabab on Walking Street. Have a bowl of chicken soup outside DJ Station. The pork and rice soup I got one night in the Day Night Plaza area was some of the tastiest soup I have had in a long time.
Some of the snacks I have had, I don't know what they were called but I sure hope to find them again!

I think one moment I am looking forward to is early morning on the beach snacking on a bowl of Jok.

I still have not had the fish cooked on the cart. I just can't bring myself to buy it. Maybe this time I will try it.

Oh.... The corn.... I love the corn and the Mango and rice. I can't leave out the fried rice too.....

Even the snacks in the 7/11. Here in the USA I don't visit 7/11's but in Thailand I am there almost every night!

Yuk to street food.

Let me know how the fish goes for you. I'm honestly curious to find out.

The only fish I eat up here is stuff I buy from Tops or wherever, which is usually imported. That's because the market fish is horrible. They literally just dig large holes in the ground, fill them up with water to make a huge mud puddle, then breed fish in them. And you can usually taste the mud.

You're by the ocean though, so might be different, and they may actually have some pretty fresh fish out there. Would be curious to find out.

If I can bring myself to try it, I will let you know... Maybe this trip....

That is grilled fish in a coating of salt.
It is absolutely delicious, and is NOT caught in a pothole filled with muddy water.

The epitome of Thai street food on wheels: cheap, delicious, ever-present, to die for . . . som tum, khao nieuw, grilled chicken.

For me the salted grilled fish is excellent, don't forget the spicy sauce !

Smiles, that does look delicious!

I almost forgot that good street food often came with real plates and silverware.

Depends. Where are you buying the fish? Hua Hin? Then you're probably right, it's not from a mud puddle, because you guys are right on the ocean.

No ocean around here though, and they need fish, so....

I'm assuming you're kidding.
If not ... the utensils are ours.

As for poor old Cdnmatt: Thailand has a much more sophisticated deliverary system than he is apparently aware of. Thais love their fish, and day and night markets all over Thailand are stuffed with fresh fish from both ocean and lakes.

Careful, someone will soon point out that they don't use chlorine to soak the plates and that the overall sanitary conditions are appalling. =))
