[@PureDetour]

Love being back in Thailand! What's your favourite dish in the video? Let me know in the comments below!

[@ATC_Radio]

I will probably end up re-making this dish. Cant wait to try it! Thank Geoff.

[@ATC_Radio]

Pad Thai? Hehe

[@ATC_Radio]

How does those fermented noodles tastes like Geoff?? Did you like it?

[@TheBacolodFoodHunters]

Do a special on weed infused dishes! It's legal now there!

[@PureDetour]

@ATC_Radio, Which dish are going to try and re-make?

[@grifsfoodandtravel]

Oh, I miss that Thai food! Very nice food tour! I'll be back there this summer and can't wait!

[@PureDetour]

I've missed it too my friend. My favourite cuisine in the world

[@suayhughes8103]

Enjoy your day! Welcome back.

[@PureDetour]

Suay! Great to see you again. Thank you for the welcome. What else should I eat here? Will be in Chiang Mai for a few more weeks and probably heading back to Bangkok for several more before I leave again.

อย่างที่คุณและคนที่ชอบอาหารไทยรู้ อาหารไทยครบรส เปรี้ยว หวาน เค็ม มัน ขม เผ็ด สมุนไพรสด กินกับข้าวเจ้าหรือข้าวเหนียว มีน้ำจิ้มเฉพาะมากมาย กินกับผักสด ผักต้ม อาหารบางภาคมีการปรุงที่แตกต่างกัน และแยกย่อยลงไปในแต่ละจังหวัด มีอาหารแบบบ้านๆเฉพาะถิ่น โดยนำเอาสิ่งที่มีมาปรุงเป็นส่วนผสม เช่น อาหารป่า ผลไม้ เป็นต้น อาหารไทยบางประเภทยังผสมผสานกันเอง และนำอาหารต่างชาติมาปรุงแต่ง โดยเสริมรสชาติและสมุนไพรของไทยเข้าไป ให้ถูกปากคนไทย นิสัยคนไทยสบายๆ ชิวๆ ไม่เป็นไรอะไรก็ได้ ทำให้วัฒธรรม ประเพณี ศาสนา สืบทอดและดัดแปลง เช่นรสชาติของอาหารไทย อย่างเพลงชาติไทยที่มีประโยคหนึ่งว่า"ประเทศไทยรวมเลือดเนื้อเป็นชาติเชื้อไทย" เราผสมกลมกลืนทุกอย่างที่ดีเข้าด้วยกัน ขอให้คุณมีความสุข สยามเมืองยิ้ม ยินดีต้อนรับครับ

Eleventy Billion likes for this comment ว้าว อธิบายธรรมชาติของอาหารไทยแบบคุณไม่ได้เลย และคุณถูกต้อง 100% ในทุกสิ่งที่คุณพูด เป็นมื้อที่สมบูรณ์แบบจริงๆ ฉันชอบอาหารอิตาเลียนด้วยเหตุผลหลายประการ แต่อาหารเม็กซิกันเป็นอาหารชนิดเดียวที่สามารถเทียบได้กับอาหารไทยที่ผสมผสานรสชาติ "สายรุ้ง" ทั้งหมดเข้าด้วยกัน

[@lloyddeguzman8461]

If you're going to Bangkok try Polo Fried Chicken (Soi Polo). Masarap!

[@PureDetour]

Heading to Bangkok next. Great suggestion Lloyd. Will do my best to get it in a video

[@donaldgrove2249]

So funny you mention the Rincome food court! Back in 2001 that was the very first place I ever ate in Chiang Mai. Through a series of mishaps I arrived in Thailand without my luggage or my bank card. That was all resolved the next day, but I was in Chiang Mai with nothing but a paid hotel reservation and a couple thousand baht in cash. I ate like a king at the Rincome market! My favorite part: getting a cup of hot sweet corn with butter, condensed milk and some jelly beans. Best of all, I was able to buy some clean clothes to hold me over till I got to the bank the next day. That market saved my b**t and gave me a very positive outlook on my trip.

[@PureDetour]

Great story my friend. Was it a busier place back in 2001? I have been by there multiple times and there is never anybody there.Both times I have eaten there there is nobody there. On a Friday night at 7 pm there is nobody there. Both times I have eaten there I was the only person at the market. It baffles me why nobody goes because they have pretty good food there

[@SimpleIslandLivingAvenueAzores]

Great video!

[@PureDetour]

Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you so much

[@palomatherapy]

Yummy food .

[@PureDetour]

Thank you for watching my friend

[@ATC_Radio]

Can’t go wrong with Bbq Chicken!

[@PureDetour]

Especially this one. Not quite as good as fresh Inasal but still very delicious

[@ATC_Radio]

Wow… i would love to try that brother!

[@PureDetour]

Which one, Alan?

[@ATC_Radio]

@@PureDetour i wanna try the pad kra pao ❤️🤭 hehe

[@LengskiMist]

I love thai food too ❤

[@PureDetour]

My favourite cuisine in the world

[@LengskiMist]

@@PureDetour not just awesomely delicious but the chilies, we know you love chilies :D :D

[@PureDetour]

The chilies here are 🔥

[@-.miiow.-]

That sauce might be น้ำจิ้มแจ่ว "Nam Jim Jaew", another common sauce in Thailand. It's basically made of fish sauce, palm sugar, chili pepper and lime juice or tamarin paste for the sourness (up to the chef, if it's thick then that's tamarin.) In some restaurant, they might add tomato, coriander or grounded roasted rice, etc.

[@PureDetour]

With the chicken? It turns out it is a tamarind sauce but the name if it escapes me. It is very sweet compared to Nam Jim Jaew which I am very familiar with and love. I had a local tell me the name of it but I can't for the life of me remember what it was called

[@-.miiow.-]

@@PureDetour Then, it might be น้ำจิ้มมะขาม Nam Jim Ma-karm. The ingredients are almost the same as Nam Jim Jaew but it goes heavy on the tamarind and sugar. Some restaurant might add "pickle garlic juice" in it and they also heat it up to make it thicker. I might be wrong thought. Have a nice trip. I love watching your vids so much. Even if I am Thai, many places you shows are hidden gems that I didn't even know them before and I will mark them for my next trip for sure.

[@PureDetour]

@@-.miiow.-, That is 100% what it was. I remembered it sound like Nam Jim Jaew and the last word started with M but google results turned up nothing for it. Thank you for reminding me of what it is called. It was driving me crazy . Very happy you like the videos and thank you so much for tuning in

[@sadohrs8431]

Thank you for another great food tour! Now I am very hungry😅😅 Where's the Pad Thai though?

[@PureDetour]

I'm honestly not the biggest fan in the world of Pad Thai, Sadohr😬

[@sadohrs8431]

@@PureDetour Oh....I understand.

[@PureDetour]

Yeah sorry, Sadohr. I have always found Pad Thai to be too sweet although I did have a good one in Koh Samui my last time here

[@sadohrs8431]

@@PureDetour That is my fave Thai Food but after watching this video, I have to try other dishes in a Thai resto😉

[@PureDetour]

@@sadohrs8431, on that side of the world most of them will be somewhat boring. If you can find it and like curries I would recommend Penang Curry. Another to try would be Khai Soi. I am going to be doing a video dedicated to Khao Soi while I am here

[@victorgoh605]

I think you review the food very well. ❤

[@PureDetour]

Thank you 😋

[@FilCanGil]

Hey Geoff, are you gonna try Mark Wiens’s restaurant and try level 10 (special order, not on the menu)💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

[@PureDetour]

I filmed Phed Mark on my last trip to Bangkok my friend. I didn't know he had a non listed #10 though. I tried both his #4 and #5. The Moo Pad Kra Pau was good but nothing special. The Wagyu Pad Kra Pau was very good.

[@lyvlogmientay2768]

Hello ✌️

[@PureDetour]

Hello, @lyvlogmientay2768

[@ATC_Radio]

What kind of leaves is that Geoff?

[@PureDetour]

In the Pad Kra Pau? It should always be Thai Holy Basil

[@TheBacolodFoodHunters]

pad kra paooo

[@PureDetour]

The best ever

[@oxoelfoxo]

what do the betel nut leaves taste like?

[@PureDetour]

Hi Elf, slightly bitter and slightly nutty is the best I could describe it. Maybe a bit of black pepper. Not spicy in any way but I’m sure you get what I mean when I say black pepper.

[@j.9306]

pad kra pau . its just ok, its nothing to boast about... 4/10 theres so much better food...

[@PureDetour]

Everybody is entitled to their opinion my friend. For me, I have travelled the world and it is by far my favourite dish I have eaten in any country. And yes, that includes any dish I have eaten in Italy or Mexico (my 2nd and 3rd favourite cuisines)
