‘Tom Yum Goong Banglamphu’ – Khao San Road, Bangkok – 2nd Visit
This was my second visit to this famed street eatery in the heart of Khao San & Sareeka’s first experience with Thai food. I didn’t waste time and started ordering items off the menu, pointing at the pictures to make sure they understood what I wanted. You shouldn’t expect them to speak the language, so…

‘Wattana Panich’ – Bangkok’s ‘Beef Noodle Soup’ Heaven
I waited long to visit “Wattana Panich” after being unable to stop by on my visit to Bangkok last year. This hole in the wall has been featured in many a food blog and it only came to my notice after Mark Wiens from @migrationology wrote about the place in his blog. Looking up this…

Eating at Phuket Famous ‘Raya Restaurant’ of Michellin Guide Fame – Thailand
Another Mark Wiens recommended joint, Raya Restaurant is located in Phuket town and serves up some delicate & scrumptious Thai Sino dishes. Set in a renovated Sino-Thai mansion with a hint of Portuguese (or so I was told) this place feels more like home than a well-known restaurant. I had planned this visit well in…

‘Tom Yum Goong Banglamphu’ at Khao San Road, Bangkok (June 2017 Visit)
I had Mark Wiens & EatingThaiFood.com as my guide for my trip to Thailand and after checking in at the hotel, I headed straight to Tom Yum Goong Banglamphu to try out their house special, Tom Yum Goong (ต้มยำกุ้ง). The first time I read about it on eatingthaifood.com, I was drooling all over myself and…
