Searching Thailand

Koh Samui & Koh Tao

Thailand's paradisiac islands are probably the most important attraction for foreigners. Regarding all the activities proper of these islands such as diving, snorkeling or just beaching, let me give you some tips for the better gastronomic experiences in there.

  1. Chicken Pad Thai @ Kuh Kaew
  2. Banana Pancake @ Kuh Kaew
  3. Big Fried Prawns @ Ark Bar
  4. Thai Chicken Curry @ Ark Bar
  5. Fried Calamari Rings with boiled Vegetables @ Baan Samui
  6. Fried Rice with Crab meat @ Sabienlae
  7. Deep fried King Prawns with Tamarindo dressing @ Sabienlae
  8. Baby Octopus with Coconut Cream @ Sabienlae

In Koh Samui, is specially mandatory at least one dinner at Sabienlae, a bit to the south of Lamai Beach.

You might also try some of this street foods anywhere around the small villages attached to the beaches.

Bangkok

Bangkok, the capital of Thailand, a well known paradise in the southern Asia, offers reasons long enough to be visited at least once in a lifetime. You might feel a bit lost in this huge and very asian alike busy city when trying to put some munch in your mouth because though you might think that is a well infrastructured city for turism, the truth is that, for example, only a minority of its taxi drivers speak english. So you can become a bit crazy just to reach a determined area in the city.

You will find an uncountable amount of small restaurants all around the city that place their mobile carry-kitchen outside probably as a marketing claim.

This are some dishes i found in this tiny family business.

 

  1. Pad Thai with Prawns @ Ban Sabai Hostel
  2. Pad Thai with Prawns @ Novus Cafe
  3. Fried Rice with Chicken @ Thai House Sabai
  4. Pork With Vegetables @ Thai House Sabai
  5. Crystal Noodles Pad Thai @ Corner Bar 
  6. Grilled Chicken @ Ewosou
  7. Seafood With Vegetables @ Ewosou
  8. Fried Rice with Duck @ Ewosou

You might not skip going to a traditional Thai Market that you can find on hundreds specially in the popular residential areas. These markets have a pretty diverse kind of foodies, that normally are served in a transparent bag to you.

  1. Big Noodles with Fritters @ Traditional Thai Market
  2. Crispy Fried Chicken @ Traditional Thai Market

  4. Fried and very Spiced Fish @ Traditional Thai Market

And overall keep your tonge ready for the spice war. Yep, still talking about food.

Best.
