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!

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!

[phuturatica]

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
