Super Cheap Eats at Chiang Mai Night Markets!

[@nestorgrey]

Foi Thong is a Portuguese dessert called fios de ovos, which means yarn made from eggs. This snack is made from egg yolk noodles. Foi Thong was made into a Thai dessert by a woman named Maria Guyomar de Pinha, half Portuguese and Japanese. She was the wife of a Greek nobleman who served as a high court official in the Ayutthaya Kingdom. which was the former capital of Thailand around the year 1659. She used to serve as head of the royal kitchen. There are many types of Thai desserts that she considered adapting from Western desserts to Thai desserts. She is therefore highly regarded in this area. Most Thai people know her from textbooks and her story has also been made into a character in a very famous Thai drama.😊

Well, he went out of his way to help us out when he could have just dumped us off at the side of the road. lol On that point, we never know when and where it's okay to tip at places 😅

Love your videos; I love the realness; it definitely inspired a lot of me and my husband's trip this coming February!! What hotels/hostels are you guys staying at in Chiang Mai??

[@TheDetourDuo]

Thank you so much! We are definitely budget travelers when it comes to accommodations and try and keep our nightly rate at less than $25. We stayed in three budget hotels in Chiang Mai: Anumat Hotel -great location in old city and comfortable rooms TJR Boutique - also a great location. Rooms were comfortable but there was an INCESSANT rooster at the next door property 😂 Bon Pongphan - about a 15 minute walk to old city. Great night market right across the street All three were reserved through booking.com 😊 there are a lot of really nice hotels in Chiang Mai as well if you have a bigger budget

Have you ever tried Sai Oua? It's a little spicy, but delicious. Pork caps and young chili paste are also worth a try. They go well with beer.

One thing I always wonder about is toilets ? Is there any at the night markets ?

[@TheDetourDuo]

I don't recall at the night markets having wash rooms. That we saw anyway. Might be a rest area at either end but we didn't see any

I just love fried rice in general, but pinapple adds a nice touch

[@dadofkop]

Thailand has a wide variety of food. And there are other foods that Thai people make and prepare to have a Thai taste. May you eat them happily. and travel safely in my country.

[@TheDetourDuo]

totally agree, and if we could try them all we would. Thanks for the well wishes

[@algersonvincent]

i paused, blew up to full screen at 2:47 just to see the cameras. where they very cheaply priced as well?

[@TheDetourDuo]

I wasn't allowed a long enough look lol. For the quick glance they looked pretty cheap. Been looking for an old school film camera too.

[@WadmanP]

Northern Thai sausages are okay. But I like the western/northwestern Isaan sausages much more. I'm actually going to be in Thailand mid-February and the food is going to be a problem; I'm on such a carb restricted diet for type 2 diabetes that the portion of rice/noodles and goodies will be painfully small. Imagine trying to enjoy Pad Krapow with a dollup of rice.

[@TheDetourDuo]

I agree I think I like the Isaan sausages more too. Oh no! Try your best that's got to be tough.

[@rmchann]

I have watched every videos on your channel. Now I miss the new video from you. Love you guys Detour Duo🥰❤️

[@tonkao_899]

Do not forget! Or you'll have food poisoning in thailand there were spicy foods like curry so do not eat to many spicy foods!

[@TheDetourDuo]

We've been here 2 months eating spicy foods. I'm certainly not an expert, but I don't think it's spicy food that causes people to get food poisoning. I think it has more to do with how food is prepared. Maybe we're just lucky

Songthaew drivers rip you off. I go to Chiangmai every year. I guarantee if you were a local, it would have been a quarter of the price. Grab Taxi's also don't have the street exhaust + A/C the "Red Trucks" are very aggressive to the Grab Drivers, even blocking them in so they can't leave... I WOULD NEVER EVER EVER take a SONGTHAEW!!!!!!!!!! It's a dying system if you're not local. There are also Yellow Trucks that go out of town to the "suburbs."

Eating scorpions Considered a good idea But you shouldn't eat it every day.
