5 Delicious Thai Noodle Dishes You Need to Try in Thailand. Thai Noodle Tour

[@meganjones3514]

I've watched so many of your videos in the last 2 day's and I can't believe how much food is out there. I'm a Brit living in Bulgaria, and have travelled Europe for the last 4 years. I will be out doing Asia this year ,thanks for all the realistic info.

[@darrenb3]

Thanks Megan! Yes, there is heaps of food here, I've lived here for nearly 6 years and I still discover delicious new dishes fairly regularly. I'm sure you will love Asia, make sure you visit Thailand in your trip! Thanks for watching.

[@МихаилШарков-ъ3ф]

Hello, Darren! Your videos every Wednesday help me to wait for the happiest day of the year - the day of flight to our beloved Krabi Town !!!! It remains a little, on February 22, 2013 we leave with my wife to Krabi. Be sure to visit your places to eat! Thank you very much!!!!

[@darrenb3]

Thanks, I'm glad you are enjoying the videos. Have a great holiday in Krabi!

[@OutandAboutwithCraig]

I love Thai noodles dishes especially wet noodles soup. I must say that Chiang Mia noodle dish looked mighty tasty. I also love yummy Vietnamese wet noodles too. It always fills your belly and is always very tasty. Thanks for another fantastic video Darren. A big cheers from Perth Australia.

[@darrenb3]

Thanks a lot Craig. Yes, a bowl of noodles will hit the spot every time :) I hope everything is good in Perth!

[@Mike-oi2th]

Darren definitely will check the video next week to see the new hair style.

[@darrenb3]

Stay tuned ... no change yet, but I'm remaining positive.

[@chenzonavarro7541]

love the videos man... im an avid pad thai lover and i would die for a video for your top five places for pad thai in phuket

[@darrenb3]

Thanks Chenzo! I've only ever had pad Thai at 2 places in Phuket, both were great. One was at the Pad Thai Shop in Karon and the other was from a night vendor outside a 7-11 in Kata (the 7-11 is at Google Maps 7.825058, 98.301437 ) and the making of that pad Thai featured in my recent "Kata by Night" video here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fGibZmmrm7Noesk I hope that helps

[@dougm3037]

Hi Darren. Congrats on making it to number 5 spot on Eat sleep Bangkok's top ten list of Thailand youtubers. Love noodles which are especially in abundance in Vietnam.Pad See Ew is a favorite of mine but usually comes with a greater concentration of greens than on offer in your featured restaurant. Good luck with the hair restoration. If the noodles don't do it for you try wearing a cheesy wig. lol

[@darrenb3]

Thanks Doug! Yes, the amount of greens in pad see ew seems to vary depending on where you are getting it. Hahaha .. I will let you know if there is any change in my hair situation.

[@ianparker2619]

Great video again Darren. A couple of my favourite dishes in there.What was it you said for truly delicious.I tend to use Aroy mak but like to learn different variants.

[@darrenb3]

Thanks Ian! I said "aroi jing jing", this expression is not used in the same was as "aroi mak" is. I said it in response to the lady's question "Aroi jing?". This web page has a good explanation on the use of "jing jing" blogs.transparent.com/thai/jing-jing/ I hope that helps.

[@ianparker2619]

darrenb3 great thanks,very helpful 👍

[@mrjack-se]

Great video... thanks 👍👍👍👍😍😍😍😍😍

[@nasisfine457]

Super awesome video as always :) this makes me want to go on a Thai noodle binge! My list of Darren recommended meals is getting long now :D

[@darrenb3]

Hahaha, thanks Nastasja :)

[@SuperClive1963]

Nice one Darren, my mouth is watering like hell, I like the dish Pad See Ew, and I do appreciate you texting on video with the words for food and some of the words used, and translated of course, chig chig, should be able to talk fluent Thai by the time I get over :) :)

[@darrenb3]

Hahaha, cheers Clive!

[@candice1990chiuhung]

Tasty food!!keep up the good vids👍🏻...im getting hungry...greetings from suriname🇸🇷

[@darrenb3]

It certainly was tasty! I hope all is well in Suriname!

[@nedstar7378]

Good video again, we keep watching all your videos. We will stay in April and may in Karon, first time visit Thailand. Visit already more then 30 years Asia but never Thailand so it's time to give it a try. Do you also have a website ?

[@darrenb3]

Thanks Ned. I'm sure you will love Thailand! I don't have a website, but I do put other content on both Facebook facebook.com/thailandvideos/ and Instagram instagram.com/youtube.darrenb3/

[@bettysmith5892]

Another awesome video👏🏻👏🏻

[@darrenb3]

Thanks Betty!

[@DionneCollette]

I'm Anglo Indian and we make a dish called khao suay that looks nearly identical to the last dish you had. One of fav dishes also. My mum makes it all the time

[@darrenb3]

Thanks for the tip. I'll have to try and find that to try!

[@jacquessasseville3792]

Love you videos, love your new ways of filming with a great flow, great editing also. Keep on posting !!! I will be in Aonang in May with my daughter (thanks to you) sure hope to have the chance and give you a well diserved hand shake. Jacques

[@darrenb3]

Thanks a lot Jacques, I'm sure you will love Ao Nang!

[@hustleandflow]

You make pretty good vids. I'll keep watching 👍

[@darrenb3]

Thanks! 👍

[@MarkSmith.]

Excellent vlog Darren I really do miss my Khao soi 😢

[@darrenb3]

Thanks Mark! I can imagine you would miss it. I get cravings for it if I haven't had it for a while.

[@MarkSmith.]

darrenb3 I can't even get it here in Perth

[@darrenb3]

I did a quick Google for khao soi in Perth and I found this menu - openmenu.com/restaurant/c52fbd2c-50bf-11e2-87ed-00163eeae34c Including "Chiangmai Khao Soi $10.80 Chicken | egg noodles | special red curry based soup" I hope that helps.

[@MarkSmith.]

darrenb3 thanks for the info Darren will have to go back. last time I was there they did not have Khao soi

[@markroberts5423]

Great stuff. Making me always hungry with your vlogs. Can't wait to retire ha ha .

[@darrenb3]

Hahaha, I hope you can do that soon me friend.

[@rangsunkonjanatnikorn8422]

Oh must go outside to find some food now. I like all dishes today.

[@darrenb3]

Good luck, I hope you find something tasty!

[@unknowntraveller8633]

I do like that Northern Thai food,spicy but not overly so I find. Wish I could get a good version of any of these dishes here.

[@darrenb3]

Yes, I love it too. Hopefully we'll get up to the north in a few months. I'm looking forward to trying all the food up there, because all the northern food I've tried so far has been delish!

[@garytingtong]

Hey Dazza mate 👍 this is great news for Us as one thing we know that Sarah does love is Thai noodles ! LoL Thanks mate great stuff 👍

[@darrenb3]

I'm sure you and Sarah will love it there Gaz 👍 👍

[@garytingtong]

Yes mate 👍 and You know how much I love my pork 👍👍

[@HoneyPiepaye]

Good food! Good life! Well.Darren!

[@darrenb3]

Thanks :)

[@fairywell32]

Wow! That video is so good and the food looks amazing!😍 Do you usually give tip in Thailand? And what is the expected amount?

[@darrenb3]

Thank you. Thailand is not traditionally a tipping culture, but tips can really help people because the wages are low in Thailand, and they are very much appreciated. I typically tip people 10% to 15% of the bill total.

[@tonyfuller8717]

Looks great! Hope to have some of the same here in 3 days when Megan and I hit CM!

[@darrenb3]

You should be able to find them all in Chiang Mai very easily. Have a great holiday!

[@hellohellohello6847]

Darren, I really don't know why you don't have 100,000's subs.... Really beats me!!

[@darrenb3]

Maybe one day Philip. Thanks for watching and the positive words.

[@hellohellohello6847]

darrenb3 peace brother!

[@mahsylla2337]

Good job 👏🏻

[@darrenb3]

Thanks!

[@drmanhattan225]

Hi Darren - in Ao Nang at the moment and wondering if there any evening markets on a Tuesday? Thanks

[@darrenb3]

Hi, The Ao Nang Mosque Market is open every evening. Google Maps coordinates: 8.035118, 98.830978,open 6pm-10pm. Also Ao Nang Market is open 4pm-7pm every Tuesday. Google Maps coordinates: 8.042038, 98.843658. Cheers.

[@drmanhattan225]

darrenb3 thanks for the quick reply! Looks like they are located very close to each other.

[@evilsasa1705]

Hello Darren first of all we are really enjoying to see your videos. In April we are travelling to the Merlin patong hotel. Do you have any recommendations for street foodnot so far from this hotel because my fiance cant go too much thx a lot

[@darrenb3]

Thanks Sascha. I don't know that hotel, but I Googled it and sorry, I don't know any street food places near there. It looks like the hotel is about 600 metres from Malin Plaza and 1 kilometre from Banzaan Market. Both places have a great variety of street food every evening. I hope that helps.

[@evilsasa1705]

Darren thx a lot for your fast answer and perhaps i will make a video too greetings to you and your family from Austria

[@jirehdagdag4685]

Are any of these noodles can be found in Phuket?

[@darrenb3]

Yes, you should be able to find all of them in Phuket.

[@daque1960]

👍🏻 it’s hard to tell from video and we Americans are used to huge oversized restaurant meals but would you call on dish a meal by itself or would you order a couple or more? I have herd Thai dishes are on the small size to us Suoer Size me Americans.

[@darrenb3]

It really depends on how hungry I am. Often one dish is enough, other times I get more than one. From what I have read, serving size is probably the reason that many western countries are facing an obesity epidemic, while in Thailand the majority of people are thin.

[@francisinghels9765]

great and complete review with dishes's names, location, etc...yum woonsen is a cold version, right? Question ; how to order soup without blood/organs/skin?

[@darrenb3]

Thanks Francis. Yum woonsen is usually served at room temperature, but it can be warm too, if they have just cooked the noodles. Aorn says, "Mai ao kruang nai" is Thai for no organs etc.

[@francisinghels9765]

Oh tanks Darren and Aorn.....you save my soup/meal!! And yes ice in Thailand is safe.....beter than coffee and tea in plane!!!!

[@stefftraveler]

Nice video, Darren. Can I ask? How you ask in Thai if the 'soup' of the noodle soup is brewed with blood or clear brew? I don't like the blood stock. If the brew is dark, does that always means it contains blood (liver, organs...) ? I don't mind a chicken foot, as long as I don't have to eat it :) Also, what's your point of view on MSG used in Thai food? I get those questions frequent lately in my food vlogs. Maybe you can make a video about it?

[@darrenb3]

No, if it's dark it isn't always made with organs. Thai duck soup is dark and has none. That question varies depending on the region according to Aorn. Generally if you ask "Nam tok mai?" = does it have blood? Namsai mai?" = is it clear. Rather than asking the question, I think it's easier just to order it as a clear soup (nam sai). That's what I do and I'm yet to get a dark one when I order it clear. Teacher Mod has a good page on ordering Thai noodle soup learnthaiwithmod.com/2012/09/how-to-order-a-thai-noodle-soup-dish/ re MSG I don't have a point of view on it. Lots of restaurants use it here, it's in lots of foods in Western countries too www.foxnews.com/food-drink/2014/11/12/foods-didnt-know-contain-msg.html. If you tell the restaurant "mai ao chuu rot kup" = I don't want MSG thanks, or "mai sai pong chuu rot kup" = Please don't add MSG, hopefully you can avoid it. I hope that helps.

[@stefftraveler]

Thanks you very much for the long answer, Darren

[@darrenb3]

You're welcome Steff!

[@bobby25111]

interesting video

[@darrenb3]

Thank you!

[@sactownism]

I had my first ever Khao Soi in Chiang Mai. I really loved it and I wished I had more time to in Thailand because I did not get a chance to visit Krabi. My brother and his friends are in Thailand right now and they were just in Krabi a few days ago, but are now in Patong, Phuket. When I was in in Patong and Chiang Mai, I was unsuccessful in finding places that served boat noodle. What is the correct way to say papaya salad in Thai? Is it "som tum" or "tum som" ? When I was in Thailand 2 months ago, I heard people say papaya salad both ways in Thai. I'm a bit confused. I live in the states and we call papaya salad "tum som." Great video by the way. I hope you do a video with Mark Wiens in the future.

[@darrenb3]

Thanks! The correct name is "som tum". I've never hear anyone call it "tom som" in my nearly 6 years of living here, but anything is possible in Thailand... Glad to hear that you got a khao soi in while you were here :)

[@HappyHawk1990]

Maybe "Tum Sua" Tum Sua is a Som Tum that added Rice noodles in there it's very popular in thailand and sorry for my english hope you understand :)

[@markroberts5423]

HappyHawk Suwanwatin my spelling is bad , sorry . They add it with khanom jeen .very good .

[@darrenb3]

Yes, tum sua is delicious, I love it!

[@paulmccracken1243]

Darrenb3...once again you got my mouth watering,, especially on the last two dishes..another place to 🌟 up on maps. Great vlog mukker 👍 cye next time.

[@darrenb3]

Thanks Paul. Yes, those last 2 dishes are definitely something else!

[@MC-py8nb]

HI DARREN.... NICE VIDEOS.. I HV SEEN SO MANY OF YOU.. I WANNA SAY SOMETHING DIFFERENT. I SAW HOW MUCH YOU LOVE TO YOUR WIFE AND TO YOUR SON.. YOUR LIFE IS FABULOUS , AND DELICIOUS LIKE FOOD. BEST WISHES!!!

[@darrenb3]

Thanks a lot for the nice message. Wishing you all the best too :)

[@tymesho]

envious of two things here. 1, obviously the food and weather, (13 degrees as i type) and 2, the folks here in comments that are able to speak with you from experience having been there. (sigh)

[@darrenb3]

Hopefully one day you'll be able to get here and try all this delicious food for yourself .. I have my fingers crossed for you. And here's hoping spring comes early this year :)

[@bainmatasaran8193]

The language would I have problems in store or restaurant communicate

[@darrenb3]

I came here for the first time in 2011 not knowing any Thai and loved it so much that I came back again 10 weeks later. Still knowing no Thai I loved it so much that I moved here 7 months later. The language barrier was not a huge issue for me.

[@gokdenizkymet783]

Hi darenb 👍❤❤❤Yum

[@anisjung3271]

Thailand has hundreds if not thousand of noodle recipes alone.I'm local,still I haven't taste all of them.That noodles in this vdo are just passable .Many noodle recipes with rich ingredients are still waiting for you to taste.It's really heaven with the yummy ones. BBO chickens also , we have too many recipes and many kind of souces to eat.Thailand IS eating paradise.

[@TheSpritz0]

DARREN- I've found that I prefer Glass Noodles and Egg Noodles to Rice Noodles, the rice ones just tend to fall apart and have very little texture or flavor...

[@darrenb3]

I actually like all noodles I think, I can't really pick a favourite type, but yes, the khanom jeen rice noodles do fall apart easily. I find other types of rice noodles, like in pad Thai, or pad see ew, to be much firmer.

[@mr.o6296]

Looking forward to the kanom jeen nam ngiaw recipe. Don't forget the congealed blood! 👍

[@darrenb3]

Definitely not, Aorn wouldn't dream of leaving it out! 👍👍

[@ringozwaan9372]

Would be quite weird though, seeing you with hair next week ;-)

[@darrenb3]

Lol

[@osmanyegin]

[@darrenb3]

Thanks Paul. More videos coming soon!

[@МихаилШарков-ъ3ф]

error! 02/22/2018!

[@michaelk.9986]

Good video again, but I missing your wife and your son. I think they belong to your videos same like you. 😀😀👍👍👍👍👍

[@darrenb3]

Thanks Michael! Unfortunately it is now the tourist season and Aorn works 7 days a week and it rains pretty much every night, at the times when she is available. We tried to make a video together on Saturday evening at a market and we got rained out. Sunday night we went to a fair and about 10 minutes into filming it started raining, so we had to stop. When it is possible for Aorn and Ananda to be in the videos they will be, but their absence is not through want of trying.
