What Do Thai People REALLY Eat For Breakfast 🇹🇭

Today I'm answering one of my most asked questions on KZbin and Instagram: What do Thai people eat for breakfast?
Now there's no clear answer for this because Thai people eat everything from stir fries to curries and everything in between for breakfast but if I had to give you 3 quintessential Thai breakfast dishes, they would be moo ping (pork skewers), jok (rice Congee) and khao mun gai (Hainanese chicken rice).
Now the point of this video is not to get you to come all the way to Bang Phrom but to get you out, onto the streets and away from the hotel breakfasts. You will find these dishes at any early morning market or street food area.

My name’s Gary and I’ve been living in Bangkok for the past five 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!

Pork Blood Curds Soup is one of the popular Thai breakfast, It always sell along in Jok shop. We also eat grilled chicken skewers, fried chicken with sticky rice, Thai omelets topped with rice, Khao Gaeng, Hot Soy Milk with Pa Tong Go, Kanom Krok(Thai Rice Coconut Pancakes), Rice Soup.

[@kulawittumwongyuen813]

If you would like to go for some original ancient Thai breakfast, I suggest you to try 'Khao Neow Hua Ngorg : ข้าวเหนียวหัวหงอก'. It's the cooked sticky rice topped with shreded coconut & salt, and eat it with some sun-dried fish (Plaa Haeng : ปลาแห้ง) or salted fish (Plaa Kem). This recipe can be traced back to Ayutthaya period. Another one is a dish called 'Khao Krayakoo : ข้าวกระยาคู'. It's the squeezed ground young rice grains and ground young rice stems cooked with pandan juice and a bit of flour to thicken it up. Then, top with coconut cream and shreded coconut. This recipe can be traced back more than 2,500 years ago (For the original recipe). *** These 2 recipes are quite difficult to find nowadays. Maybe because of the taste. They're not that tasty compared to other modern Thai dishes.

[@theroamingcook]

Thank you so much for the recommendations, I will track them down 🙏

[@soultaliban]

Can we get some food recomendation from this century, not one we need a time machine to get to. plz😉

[@kulawittumwongyuen813]

@@soultaliban Well, even they're the recipes since the ancient times, there are still some stores or restaurants selling them. No need for 'Time Machine', just use 'Google' to search and find the locations.

Or take something like the pink book, Thai Food by David Thompson, and going through it major dish by major dish.

other Thai menus that are top hit for breakfast - Pig's jelly soup with rice ( Tom Luad Mu ) - Patongko with hot drink - Sticky rice with some fried meat (pork , chicken)

This unlocked my old memories. Before going to school, I would get up early enough so I have enough time to sit down at a Jok shop and enjoy this delicious jok along with pa tong go (fried donut). However, whenever I was running late, I would eat moo ping while walking to school lol. Thanks for the vid bro.

[@ronwest4930]

My Thai wife says it's "moo" ping not "mor" ping

[@theroamingcook]

I didn’t realise that’s what I said 😂

Yep, "Mor ping" is grill doctor not grill pork😅 (mor is Thai word doctor) 😊 anyway nothing serious.

What I don't understand about the Moo Ping - they gill it over charcoal and then cut off the little charred bits. Those little charred bits are the best thing about charcoal cooking.

[@sauravroychow]

Yummmyyyy....My kind of breakfast for sure. I love anything Thai. Can have a good spicy pad krapaw as well.

[@hom_di]

My mrs is a big fan of either muu ping kab khao niaow, or naem muu kab khao nieow. Occasionally jok, and sometimes bread / croissants!

Can’t go wrong with any of them!

[@starseed5022]

I'm Thai. Like you have said at the beginning of this video...Thai people eat just about anything for breakfast. On that note, it's a matter of preference for EACH individual Thai on breakfast choice. Every day is different. Nothing is set in stone on what to eat for breakfast in Thailand.

[@takeshi_zero3271]

The best part of Moo Ping is in fact the leftover marinade, a.k.a. sticky rice's significant other 😂

Thanks mate!

Wowww the rice porridge looks yummy❤ Not to mention the 3 different chicken with rice:) Thanks for sharing this video with us Gary😊

[@eswillie]

Reminds me of my first morning in Bangkok back in '69 when I walked the streets as the sun came up, watched the women sweeping in front of their homes and shops, walked through the markets, smelled all the cooking but of course didn't really know what or where to eat. Thanks, Gary. Now I watched to the end, but I really liked the Kau Mun Gai and the rice porridge and egg at the first place. That would set me up for the day easily.

[@soultaliban]

You have a very good memory, sir.

[@zightdavansia9713]

Mix moo ping juice with sticky rice it's a great combination of breakfast. And don't forget pa thong kho with rice congee.

[@vita10052007]

These breakfast seem to be a chinese style selling along street during rush time in the morning. Actualy, mainly the real Thai eat fresh or boiled vegetable with chilli sauce and fish at home but if we go out to work then we need more heavier food, so we like to eat curry, fried vegetable, fried fish or egg. Just simple in a limited time to eat before working. The grilled pork we eat for sometime and nowadays doctors say it cause cancer. Anyway, I am your fan and love seeing you exploring my country.😍😍😍😙😙
