Well if that is your experience that's a shame - i have eaten some really great street food over a couple of decades and never ever had a stomach upset -you get to know where the good places are - and i dont think any self respecting Thai citizen would be visiting any street stall if the food resembled what you describe.

Actually i am in the book business, i sell books from the UK , Australia and US to Asia Books and Kinokuniya - this particular book has been very popular - it is a name that certainly turns your head and makes you chuckle, but I believe it is supposed be genuinely good! Your imahe shows this to be the third edition - thats good going.

Now that sounds nice!

A lot of what you say is probably right, but there are definitely Street Food style techniques to learn and tips and tricks that just aren't the same as normal restaurant cooking, which my wife is already proficient in - yes she does look at YT a lot, but being at the coal face is very different - we will see how it goes and i will report back if it is a waste of time or not!

If we wanted to learn French cooking, France would be appropriate........

Sounds interesting - do you have aa contact for Poo - so to speak? I have seen her book in the markets and her YT vids are pretty good
-
Sure - my wife already has that experience, she understands the balance of Thai tastes and ingredients well, it is the Street style techniques she is after, which can be quite different
-
Indeed! Yes, that is exactly what we may do - not s tupid idea at all! Thanks!
-
Cheers! Yes know about the many cooking schools - we dont have the time for that and my wife already has very good general experience - its more the technique of street food cooking - it is very suited to 'Thai takeaway'

My wife and I are visiting Thailand in June and we are hoping to find someone who can offer Street Food cooking lessons - preferably in Bangkok. We found one guy on You Tube and his price is 25,000 Baht for three hours - 8,000 Baht an hour is pretty excessive I think! I like the idea of not only lessons but perhaps some real street food experience in night market - if anyone has any contacts please let me know Cheers Peter
