Enjoyed this video a lot. All the food looks really tasty. Nice to see the family all together trying the foods and enjoying yourselves. God bless you all
That last dish, i am familiar with, since their are numerous indo-pak eateries here; even in far west suburbs of Chicago. That i could eat 3 - 4 times per week ! I like the idea of having a variety of "oil fried" foods! Please give greetings to your wife, and son, good to see them. Good-day🙋
Very good one Darren. Mmmmh I really have to think if I would have to break it down to 5 dishes which that would be. Sooooooo many good food over here ;-) We wish you and your family a great day. Greetings from Phuket
Thanks Rene. Yes, we are spoiled with all the delicious food here in Thailand, the food is definitely one of the many advantages of living here. Hope you and your family are having a great day in Phuket too :)
G’day Darren, thank you for another appetising video. I loved all the food you showed us from your local market but my favourite would have to be the fried stuff. 👀 yummy. So much variety of it too. Also the pork satay sticks looked very delicious as well. It won’t be long now till my adventure begins in Thailand. A big cheers and thumbs up 👍 from Perth Australia. PS You did well not to stop and grab a Durian in this video. You could see temptation in your eyes. Well done Haha. Durians are in season woohoo. 👌😊🙏
Hahaha, yes, I do like durian 😋 The fried stuff is very yummy, the shops at that market have particularly good stuff too. And yes, pork satays are pretty hard to beat! I hope all is well in Perth mate and hope the time till you're back here passes quickly ;)
Everything looked yummy. I wouldn't get too far past the tempura table ROFL, but even those dainty fried crispy fish looked delish. Like eating fishy tater chips? ha ha And Ananda had his famous orange slushy. I swear when we go to the fair I'm going to fashion myself a bag to carry my drink!!!!! (a plastic grocery bag w/handles and some duct tape) Aorn looks like she put on a pound or two and she is looking great/healthier. Such a sweet smile. Thanks Aorn and Darren. Another winner!
Yes, those fish are very dainty and soft ... very yummy! Lol, you will have to send me a pic of your drink holder, it sounds interesting ;). Thanks for watching Missy B, hope you're enjoying summer!
I don't know how to move pics to You Tube or Twitter LOL...I would just take a plastic grocery bag with handles, cut off the bottom and duct tape it and the handles would be sort of like the Thai clear drink holders....?
Hey Darren, I'm a recent subscriber to your channel. I'll be visiting Bangkok & Phuket in a couple of weeks, and have been watching many Thai videos.....I think your's are some of the best......plus you're a fellow Aussie ! Jim.
Very nice vids mate , unfortunately it made me so bloody hungry i had to dig out a tom yum pot noodle thing! from my kitchen ..sat watching another episode in the rainy uk at midnight.Hopefully get down that way and smash that buffet one day {better than my pot noodle} cheers guys
Hi Darren, your video, delicious as always 555, I'm still in Australia, heading back home to Patong in about a week, I miss the people and of course the food. Cheers
Yes, less plastic bags is better for all of us. It's easy to say no (Mai ao tung krup). And yes, there is so much food at the food markets here, they're a great place to try new things. Thanks for watching and commenting Francis.
Thanks Lynton! Yes, there are lots of choices here, I'm slowly working my way through my favourites to share with you. More fave foods, and more from Aorn ;) coming soon!
Hahaha, that's not too far from what actually happened ;) He didn't end up on the castle for long. He spent most of the 20 minutes trying to get Aorn on the thing 🤣
Very yummy food today. I think I can try all of them, but may not the last one, think to spicy for me... Aorn looked Very pretty today, nice Swedish backpack 555. I want to try so many think, but I'm afraid I will not like and I hate waste food. Is there a way to ask for just a very small amount of food to taste? If a vendor have say 5 different items and I like to try everyone?? It's ok for me to pay for a full bag, but I hate waste food if I don't like it...
Hey Darren and ong love your vids. I was just in Thailand and loved it. The people were awesome food was great and the culture made sence. Would love to meet a nice lady does ong know any single ladies who would like to meet a nice fulung??? Please respond.
Thanks for the link. I'd always wondered about eating the crabs. Am I correct in that the shells are very soft? Seems like it would be a hazard to eat whole if shells were hard like larger crabs. I've had the the regular som tum here at local Thai restaurant but never with the crabs as they aren't available here in the US where I live.
No, the shells are hard, you can't swallow them, but they do have some tasty meat inside if you break them open. Yes, I think those crabs are probably just here in SE Asia.
My husband made comment about it this morning and I had watched your video last night thinking... hmmmm that doesn't calculate as I thought it should. Then checked the exchange this morning and WOW! We will be in Bangkok Aug 1-12 and Phuket 12-16. I've really enjoyed your videos and look forward to our visit!
I like pork satay, chicken satay and beef satay much much but never try lamb satay. 😃 And that cryispy squid look so good. And thank you for reducing plastics waste 👍.
I don't think I have ever see lamb satay in Thailand, but I have eaten it in Australia and I loved it. That crispy squid is amazing, I could probably eat that every day I think 😋 Yes, it's easy to say no to plastic bags 👍
Thanks. By "I could probably eat that every day" I meant it is so good that I would never get bored of it. But yes, it's not the healthiest dish, so I eat it sparingly :)
I'd eat the fish one. But I don't know if I'd eat the squid. I would @ least try it. I know I couldn't eat those little fishy looking @ me. There looked like they had a lot of salt on them. After I would swell like a little dough girl... lol... & that's not good for my health. Unless they use sea salt then I could indulge. Sea salt don't make you swell like regular salt does. When I switched to sea salt I quite swelling from salt alone. I cooked walleye the other day & did a flour, egg, panko crust & it was delicious. Very light batter & wasn't heavy on your belly after eating. Well be using that for now on, on my fish. My husband I usually the one who cooks the fish, he's a wonderful cook, but I wanted to try that combo, seen it on UA-cam, & he even liked it. I'll be doing that one always on the fish now. If he will ever catch any fish when he goes fishing. He's been 4 times this week & hasn't brought 1 keeper home. I'm going to have to ground him from fishing or go with him to show him how to bring them in. I just yell HERE FISHY, FISHY, FISHY, FISHY FISHY & the next thing I know I've got a keeper. Several people has witnessed this. I'm telling you the truth. True stories by Chris..... sounds like a good book..... lol.... Well loved the video & thank you for not teasing me with seafood. Take care, Chris from Missouri
Hahaha, it sounds like your husband should leave the fishing to you Chris ... leave him home in the kitchen :D. "True Stories by Chris", does sound like a good read, you can put me down for a copy when it's published. I don't know how they dry those fish before they are fried, but some of them are not at all salty from some shops, I do like them with a bit of saltiness though.Thanks for watching and commenting, I hope all is well in Missouri!
darrenb3 this is another true story.... We just started dating & he wanted to take me fishing. So we went & he hands me this fishing pole, remind you I was raised on the lake from to age of 2 yrs old, & it's a bass fishing pole that is called a bait caster. If you dont put the right amount of tension with your thumb on your line it will back lash & you end up with this bird nest & you might as well cut your line out past all those knots. He said DO YOU THINK YOU CAN THROW THIS? I said I'll try, but don't hold your breath hope I don't back lash it all up. Little did he know... lol... I threw it right between these two trees & caught the 1st keeper of the night. He said DAMN YOU THROUGH THAT THING BETTER THEN I DO.... WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME YOU COULD CAST ONE OF THOSE. I said I brought 3 of them, why would I bring them if I didn't know how to cast them! He said your right & I wasn't thinking. I said jokes on your for assuming that a girl can't fish with a baitcaster.... I love telling that story to this date. Hope you enjoyed it. Chris P.S. we do have his & her fishing boats too.
Ahahaha. I did enjoy that story, thanks Chris. It sounds like yours would definitely be the boat I'd want to go fishing on, not your husbands ;) I hope you both have a great weekend.
darrenb3 yes we would be back before him after we went fishing, swimming, & tubing. My boats the fast one. We be back so fast we would cook the chicken gizzards & fried green tomatoes too! No livers are a loud in camp unless your going cat fishing that night. Them things stink........... Well you have a great weekend. Thanks for all you do, Chris from Missouri
Looks tasty, but unhealthy because they’re fried, then salted, then some dipping sauce loaded with msg or preservatives, not good for health, that frying oil was dark brown when your camera pointed at it
Be there in couple of weeks can’t wait to try all these out. I have just had dinner and after seeing your blog my mouth is watering ,
Hahaha. There's so much yummy stuff to try here Doris. Have a great holiday!

Yes, less plastic bags is better for all of us. It's easy to say no (Mai ao tung krup). And yes, there is so much food at the food markets here, they're a great place to try new things. Thanks for watching and commenting Francis.

Good one Darren! Enjoyed the 5 foods, wow how do you choose , so many variations. Nice to see Awn ( sorry about the spelling) centre stage too!

Very yummy 😁...my mouth is watering... thought you were going to have a go off camera in the bouncing castle 😁
Hahaha, that's not too far from what actually happened ;)
He didn't end up on the castle for long. He spent most of the 20 minutes trying to get Aorn on the thing 🤣
darrenb3 😂
Happy Wednesday. We will take the 🍗 over 🍛 to go 😎
👍👍
Great as always sir!! Peace :)
Thank you :)
Very yummy food today. I think I can try all of them, but may not the last one, think to spicy for me...
Aorn looked Very pretty today, nice Swedish backpack 555.
I want to try so many think, but I'm afraid I will not like and I hate waste food.
Is there a way to ask for just a very small amount of food to taste? If a vendor have say 5 different items and I like to try everyone??
It's ok for me to pay for a full bag, but I hate waste food if I don't like it...
Thanks Kjell. Yes, many vendors will let you try their products. If you ask "Chim dai mai?", it means "Can I try it?". I hope that helps.
thank you..darren
Thanks for watching Osman!
I do not know what the food tastes , but looks good .
👍👍

Thanks mate!
Hey Darren and ong love your vids. I was just in Thailand and loved it. The people were awesome food was great and the culture made sence. Would love to meet a nice lady does ong know any single ladies who would like to meet a nice fulung??? Please respond.
Yes, Thailand is a great country. Sorry, none of Aorn's friends are single.
Very tasty video!
Thanks!
Darren Mate- I recon I'd be at that Tempura place for at LEAST an hour! :)
Yes, that's a great shop to stop at, their stuff is delicious!
Been meaning to ask for some time. Have you ever eaten som tum with salted crab? Is it on one of your videos.
Yes, I've eaten it probably hundreds of times, I eat it quite regularly. There's a video where we ate it here: ua-cam.com/video/tulacRTPQqs/v-deo.html
Thanks for the link. I'd always wondered about eating the crabs. Am I correct in that the shells are very soft? Seems like it would be a hazard to eat whole if shells were hard like larger crabs.

No, the shells are hard, you can't swallow them, but they do have some tasty meat inside if you break them open. Yes, I think those crabs are probably just here in SE Asia.
Hi Darren. Just a quickie :-) Do you have a cameraman or woman with you when you do your videos ?
A friend helps me out with the camera sometimes, when he has time.
Wow... the exchange rate has changed a lot in the last couple weeks.
Yes, it certainly has ... it actually changed while I was making the annotations for that video and I had to go back and change some.
My husband made comment about it this morning and I had watched your video last night thinking... hmmmm that doesn't calculate as I thought it should. Then checked the exchange this morning and WOW! We will be in Bangkok Aug 1-12 and Phuket 12-16. I've really enjoyed your videos and look forward to our visit!
I can't believe you were able to narrow it to 5!
This is the 3rd video I've done with 5 street foods you should try, plus I did one with 10 street foods, so we're up to 25 so far, and more to come :)
So you're going to do like 97 more? 😁😁😁😁🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭
I like pork satay, chicken satay and beef satay much much but never try lamb satay. 😃 And that cryispy squid look so good.
And thank you for reducing plastics waste 👍.
I don't think I have ever see lamb satay in Thailand, but I have eaten it in Australia and I loved it. That crispy squid is amazing, I could probably eat that every day I think 😋
Yes, it's easy to say no to plastic bags 👍
darrenb3 : Squid has high cholesteral. Please take care your health krab 😁.
Thanks. By "I could probably eat that every day" I meant it is so good that I would never get bored of it. But yes, it's not the healthiest dish, so I eat it sparingly :)
When Awn says spicy, does she like it?
Yes, Aorn likes spicy food and she says she enjoyed the chicken dish in the video.
Yummy.......:-)
👍👍
Your family is so cute🌈🌈🌈
Thank you :)
too bad you didn't like Khao Mak Gai - I like it very much
