My name is Gary Butler and I’ve been living in Bangkok for the past six plus years and travelling Thailand for over ten. I’m obsessed with Thai street food and it’s that obsession that led me to start this KZbin channel. I want to share my favourite hidden spots in Bangkok and the rest of Thailand so you can fall in love with authentic, local Thai food as much as I have!
I’ve never understood travelling to a town or city and not eating the local food. How else do you really connect with a place? Let’s get out and explore together and I guarantee you’ll find a whole different side to this wonderful country.
If you love seeing off the beaten path, non-touristy, local life and authentic local life in Bangkok and Thailand then this is the channel for you. If go go bars on the Sukhumvit Road are more your thing (I’m not judging) then maybe not!

never thought i’d see the day that a couple of folks from England would be enjoying a bowl of Khao Soi Lao. even in areas of the US where asian culture and asian restaurants are prevalent, Khao Soi Lao is still somewhat of a rare dish. probably because the fermented bean paste is not so readily available. i’ve been enjoying Khao Soi since i was small child, much like your little one, and it is indeed my absolute favorite dish of all time too! all of the punchy flavors hit just right! cheers mate!

[@theroamingcook]

Any ideas on how to make the Bahn Cuon yourself at home? I don’t have the funds to travel or a good Vietnamese restaurant near me, but I love Vietnamese food ever since I went to a Vietnamese restaurant with family years ago… I love cooking foods from all different cultures ; it’s my way of travelling without breaking the bank or having to leave my dogs at a dog hotel while being abroad 😂

You making look so good

[@eswillie]

That looks like a great way to spend the day (or days, depending on the weather), and it reminds me of Thailand back in the day. Not as relaxing or tourist friendly back then, but the food and the total ambience alongside the Mekong and the tributary brought me back. And I do recall that some of the Lao guys who were with us loved all the Thai meals; not as different from what I really enjoyed in Thailand as Viet Nam dishes are. I did one of my mashups last night for dinner with yellow chile paste, and Thom Yum paste, coconut milk and chicken with a lot of leftover vegetables, palm sugar, shrimp paste, etc., and it might not have been an authentic curry, but it was damn good. Now if I can only convince my love to travel to Thailand/Laos/Viet Nam, and the rest, I might just get to try some real food; her daughters were over there two years ago and loved it, but they still can't get her on board.

[@theroamingcook]

Yeah the food is very similar to Isan for the most part. Obviously there are differences but a lot is the same too. Hopefully you can convince you're better half one day! The curry sounds great!

[@Lala052206]

LOVE that you’re enjoying the Pa Dak!! 🤤 I’m Laotian but never visited Laos before. Thanks for sharing this great foodie video!!
