Fish with Fried Black Pepper

You can use just about any fish in this dish. as well as the fried black pepper, there is red chili and onions. You can also use red and green peppers.

Hygienic?

To eat noodles, you are given chopsticks and a Chinese style wide spoon. On the table you will find some pink tissues. Use them to wipe your chopsticks and spoon. Don’t be embarrassed as Thai people do the same. If you have been waiting at your table, someone would have come up to you asking what drink you want. Sometimes there is a jug of boiled water on the table already. This is safe to drink. Or you can order bottled water. The ice usually comes crushed which is regarded not to be as hygienic as the ice cubes. If you don’t want ice in your glass then just say “mai dtong sai nam kaeng”. Now it is time to enjoy your noodles! When it comes to the time to pay, you just say “gep dtung krab/kaa”.
The next time you are in Thailand, try eating by the side of the road. If you see a lot of Thai people eating there then you know that the food is both delicious and hygienic. The Thai people are just as fussy as you! Enjoy.

Coca-Cola Cooking

The amazing Mrs. Rattana Chinaarkatakul makes her now famous chicken noodle soup.
Obviously many others agree as the shop, which is just opposite Chiang Mai’s five star Mae Ping Hotel, does a roaring trade from seven in the morning until the soup runs out, usually around eight o’clock at night.
So tasty is the soup that many of the Mae Ping’s guests have been known to sneak across the street for breakfast, despite the lavish repast being served up at the hotel.
So what’s the secret behind this delectable soup? A hint can be gleaned from the name of the dish: Kai Tun Coke. The last word is the give away, Coke, or more specifically, Coca-Cola.

Depand On You

“Ethnic” dining such as this does not require a menu, as the locals know what is on offer, but from our point of view it was almost the wander round the tables and point to what others were having style of selection, but to make it easy practice the following “Bamee nam moo dang” and you will have ordered an egg noodle soup with red pork! Hold up the number of fingers for the number of soup bowls and you are more than half way there!

Ordering@Noodle Shop

In Thailand, one of the cheapest places to buy and eat food is by the side of the road. These are the mobile stalls which vendors wheel to their locations every day. Sometimes they might leave the cart there and then bring all their working tools in a pickup truck. Tables are set up on the sidewalk with stools for you to sit on. Quite often these street vendors operate in groups which means if you go to the same place every night, you have a different choice of meal. If there is a group of you, it doesn’t really matter if you all order from the same stall or not. Just walk around ordering what you want and then go back to your table to wait. Each vendor will bring you your food. Also, you will sometimes find that one vendor will collect the money on behalf of everyone. The plates are often colour coded so that they know whether you had an ordinary dish (tam-ma-daaaaaaa) or a special dish (pi-seddddddd).
