Anyone tried any of these places? I visit Bkk monthly and would like to try a few of these places. Pictures look good.

I've tried the Pad Thai at the place next door to Thip Samai years ago and it was pretty good - The story I heard is that the place I ate at was actually the famed Pad Thai location but the one next door had better marketing....who knows?!?

Unrelated but I was somewhat surprised to see one of my photos as your avatar ....where did you get that from? I don't recall posting it anywhere.....am I owed royalties

I really like the noodle soup stall I believe located at sukhumvitt Soi 7 across from the tunnel. Yummmy!

I prefer the lesbian som tam on Ramkhamhaeng

And what pray tell is "lesbian som tam" vs. non lesbian som tam? Lol!

If I tell you, I will have to kill you

Sounds interesting.....

There is a great site eatingthaifood.com they cover lots of street food and locations & have some nice videos.

It's delightful. Particularly the Chiang Mai sausage and fermented wings

I've had both the Joke from Sam Yan and the Nam Kaeng Sai at Suan Luang - both good and both are famous places.

I've been going to Jay Goy in ratchatewi for over 2 years, but I recently found out that Jay Daeng just past Jay Goy is soich better! And cheaper. My favorites (and my usual order) is Yam hoi kreang (spicey cockle salad), pla dook <deleted> (exploding catfish), nam took nua (spicey beef salad), and phad gop (fried frog with garlic) all do good!

Ooo. I'm totally gonna try these places next time I'm in the area!

I'd bet the one with the fermented crab (juice) in it is the lesbian one
