Hello Gary! I'm enjoying another one of your video blogs..You are fantastic and gild my life without being in Thailand but I will come back a little later. Have the best Gary and greetings from the Thai food nerd Per in Sweden🇸🇪🙏
Best Thais food explanation channel, your narration together with great Thai native language (definitely)cute accent made your content even more unique and interesting. Subscribed right away!
Hey Gary I just want to say I appreciate you showing love to Lao and Isaan people and showcasing the differences in the food and culture. You might be one of the only falang RU-vidrs to know or acknowledge it and I thank you tremendously for that
I'm Thai. Mr. Gary, I'm surprised you are a foreigner who eats Thai food very well. speak Thai very well And you have gone to taste at famous restaurants all over Thailand. Thai people are jealous Awesome. I would like to be another FC of you.
I have heard it's amazing and it's next to a fantastic Jok shop so I'll check it out. Try here also (it's not the famous Jae So) goo.gl/maps/dKbi9dxgcsJFmER57
Good to see your getting quality sponsors like Skill Share Gary, and not cheap mowing your beaver rubbish! Well done! Keep the quality up my man! PaulPaws!
Being a lover of seafood, particularly shellfish, that first rice flour pancake would have been the first thing I would try, and then the Isaan curries would definitely be my second stop. The pounded fish curry and the home made fish balls would make my day. The salads in the third stop looked good too, but I'm not sure about the river crab. Back in my day, I never really asked about the ingredients, I just looked and smelled and got what appealed to me, and I was never disappointed. Since my time was spent in Bangkok, Phrapadaeng down the river across from Thonburi, and up in the Northeast in Surin, I don't think there's anything there I wouldn't try at least once. Keep up the great videos, they're my go to views, and I share them with everyone I know.
Love Isaan food! Even Som Tum Poo Para😋 maybe after a few Leo’s you’ll like it better. 🤣The chicken looks really juicy And the pork salad is now on my list. Thanks Gary 🙏🏽
Hi Gary! At 03:58... TALAY means SEA and TOD is a general term for frying. The literal translation is SEA FRY. AHAN TALAY is seafood. My favorite is HOI TOD or OYSTER FRY with the sweet chili sauce! I will be in Thailand in late August. This is my 3rd attempt to go there since Covid began in 2020.
The point I was making (badly) Kevin is that when I hear tod, I think deep fried. This would be what we would call shallow frying so I was wondering why they don't call it Talay Jeow like Kai Jeow or Gratiam Jeaow if that makes sense? I shouldn't care really and just eat haha. I'm so happy for you that you're making it back!
We really enjoy your food reviews all very good! Like that, you took along a Thai food novice to help understand what non-Thai foodies will enjoy right off. For me some of the fermented fish/seafood papaya salad sauces are too unfamiliar/overwhelming and sometimes crazy spicy other times spot on.
My Somtam (papaya salad) put Karen chili 3 seeds per/Plate or 2 seeds per plate. I don't eat chilli in papaya salad because it so hot. I rake chili away. Unnecessary to eat chili in Papaya salad if You can't eat spicy. Although I rake chili away but my somtam still hot. I must eat it with sticky rice, fried chicken or grilled chicken.
LOVE your video❤ I would recommend you try Hoy Tod at Deang Racha Hoy Tod. They served the dish for more than 80 years (3 generations) and their seafood quality is superb😁
The Bala fermented fish with augerbine dish/crab recommended by your favorite supporter was pretty bad mate. God bless you for trying that one in the beginning.
that kanom jeen looks good, I like that very much too, I like to eat it with every sauce and topping.ja those handmade fish balls are much tastier than those from a company.that is the one and only somtam for me,,somtam plara, pho ... I also like the pieces of plara in my somtam, not only the sauce, the fish itself tastes much better.
This a place I'm definitely visiting in January. This Ko moo yang you have ordered looks like a salad. If I remember correctly from a video in Chula, you have also ordered Ko moo yang and it was just meat with nam jim jao sauce, no salad. Does this mean each restaurant has a different version or is the name a bit different for a salad?
😍 I love variety of Thai street foods. Every time I visit Thailand ... my weight has increased !!! 😝😋 ♥ thank you for sharing ++ ENJOYED YOUR AWESOME ViDEO
The reason why it's called 'Gaeng Keow Waan : แกงเขียวหวาน' because the name 'Keow Waan' (in this case) means 'Pastel green' (Waan : หวาน can be also translated as something milder than usual.). Because of the mild green colour of the curry, and also in the past, we didn't have a proper word to call the pastel green. So that's the reason why we call it 'Gaeng Keow Waan'.
Thank you for good vdo(clip) exploring more street foods around the the trip in Bangkok I would like to say,, การทอด มีหลากหลายรูปแบบ อาจเป็นการทอดโดยใช้น้ำมันเยอะ หรือทอดแบบน้ำมันน้อย แบบที่คุณสงสัย.. ทำไม เรียกหอยทอด หรือ ทอดทะเล.. อาหารที่ทำให้สุกด้วยน้ำมัน หรือใช้น้ำมันเป็นหลัก จะใช้คำว่าทอด ครับ เช่น ไก่ทอด กล้วยทอด แต่ถ้าเป็นผัดคือ การทำให้สุกด้วยมีน้ำมันเป็นส่วนผสม เอามน้ำมันคลุกเคล้าผสมในการทำหรือประกอบอาหารแบบที่เรียกว่า stir fried เช่นผัดกระเพรา ผัดซีอิ้ว So now you must compare how of the difference between fried(deep fried) and stir fried ภาษาไทย ลึกซึ้งครับ ต้องทำความเข้าใจให้มาก เพื่อการถ่ายทอด ในอีกภาษาให้เข้าใจแบบคนไทยครับ. ขอขอบคุณกับสิ่งๆ ทีดีๆ อีกครั้งครับ...
Thanks so much. I was trying to explain that when I hear ทอด I think of deep fried like gai tod but in the UK, this would be shallow frying, more like จียว. Can you explain that to me please? 🙏 🙏
Actually the orange sauce is Hoy Tod sauce, not Sriracha chili sauce. It contains Chili Sauce + Fried Chicken Sauce or Sweet Chili Sauce that Thai people like to eat with fried chicken. Some shops will mix it already. But the restaurant where you eat, you have to mix it yourself. If you don't like sweet, you can reduce the sweet chili sauce by yourself. You actually have to mix those two bottles together. yes it can be sweet But it's a special sauce for Hoy Tod, you can't go wrong with fish sauce or vinegar, but this Hoy Tod sauce, Thai people have been eating with Hoy Tod since ancient times.😁😁
A Hoi Tohd worth mentioning, I think, is Nai Mong Hoi Thod in Chinatown. What do you think of that place? Keep your videos comming! I greatly enjoy them! thanks mate!
#NEW THAI WORD TODAY# GARY = หิววว (Hungryyy) Lol You always made me hungry Gary, many times I have to go out at 2 or 3 in the morning to find something to eat. Lol
How would you rate their Hom Mok and have you tried that crab curry? I hope this market is open on weekends. Looks like a place where you can try a lot of dishes.
Opposite the Chao Phraya River of Wang Lang is Tha Prachan, there are many restaurants and many delicious but now many of them are closed. due to covid 😔
I do not live in BKK and plan to visit Thailand next month. Not enough location information provided to find most of recommended restaurants/street food vendors in your RU-vid. For example, for the first seafood pancake shop, which ferry terminal people have to get off? Only expat living in BKK can locate the restaurant location.
My missus makes a fantastic kanom jin. Plenty of chilli. Steams the fish,very carefully takes every bone out then pounds it in the big clay pestle and mortar. Then into the big pot with all the spices and coconut milk....can't beat it mate.
I’ve been following your show for a couple of months now - until you said you can’t handle pla ra - I have no more respect for you, sorry but I can’t trust your palate - pla ra Som Tum, or the Issan aka Laos version is on another level - you’re an amateur mate.
@@theroamingcook all good mate, it’s a gee up, I was born in Laos mate, I’m pretty certain I know what padaek is - mum is about to make tum mak hoong for lunch using the nectar of the gods! Get on it boyz!
Haha, I know mate all good. I was 99.9 percent sure you were Lao by your name. I was just getting you at it. I reckon your mum’s is much better than what I was eating here!
Hiya Gary, smashing those subscribers now. Well done. Great video as always. Watching this now as I am ordering a Chinese. You always make me feel hungry. Nice to meet Joe. Nice, you have a sponsor. Whatever food you choose always looks so good. Have a great weekend.
No don't add nampla and vinegar to hoi tod. It's very wrong . คุณมั่วมากเครื่องปรุงสำหรับก๋วยเตี๋ยวเท่านั้น ติดตามคุณมานานแล้วแต่แปลกใจมากที่คุณปรุงหอยทอดด้วย
I think ซอสพริก is wrong on everything. I say in the video that Thai people don't put nam pla but I like it. Even my Thai friends do it now they have tried it. You should try na
