AgMech Cowboy Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Chicken Cashew (I do not know how to spell the English, but something like Gai, phat, maw muang) and Thum Yong Gung (made by my wife). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ronaldo0 Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 Ka pow moo grob, wife’s yellow pork curry that has only a little sauce in it , her Thai version of pork spaghetti bolognaise with chilli and her version of sweet and sour pork/ chicken. Infact after being in the uk for the last 6 months I realise I missed Thai food a lot for the flavours etc . Had Chinese here twice which I thought I missed and after eating it the second time I decided it’s not good and won’t be eating it again apart from hot and sour soup . 3 weeks and counting and back to spicy food , sun and the bum gun !

GreasyFingers Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 The spelling will be wrong but it sounds like phik ong, pork mince with a tomato base eaten with fresh uncooked vegetables and lettuce. Reckon it would make a great meat pie too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seeall Posted January 20, 2021 Share Posted January 20, 2021 (edited) A huge topic.... indeed.. as I travel out of Phuket I find the average good food better.... higher quality of good thai food is hard to find... I can imagine some of the expats here like myself have had rare gems... tired of hearing about short timers saying pad thai is exellent down soi yummy... no idea... Also how people come here and only want food they can relate to.... are they really scared to try a dish that cost less than US 3 $? each to thair own... A rissian guest when askes picked the most boring item on the menu then talked for 5 min about the adjustments and extras.. which of cours the minmar girl had no idea what she was talking about, would have been a <deleted> eat anyways.. I said "just pick a number" yeah thai good food is out of this world.... Myself it took me hmm 6 years before starting to find the really good stuff, and yeah its always comparitive right.... enjoying the journey and still dicovering delights after a decade..... ENJOY Edited January 20, 2021 by Seeall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CLW Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 Oh so many. Pad Krapao still being one of my favorite that I could eat everyday. Followed by Massaman beef curry, Biryani rice, Crispy pork belly, Pork leg German style, Boat noodle, grilled Satay skewers, Yum Gai zaab and so on.... There are only a few things here that I don't eat. Crab for example (except crab meat ready to eat), homemade Pla ra (I am scared of food poisoning and parasites), southern Yellow curry is way too spicy and burns my stomach every time.

Pilotman Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 (edited) To the OP's question, none of it really. Its usually low quality, fairly tasteless, and often too spicy. Even Mrs P is not that keen, unless its unmentionable fish, chicken feet or small frogs, which rather proves my point that it's basically peasant food. She does produce one 'Thai' dish that I like using chicken, eggs and various spices, but I suspect that its a Mrs P creation, as I have seen it nowhere else and it doesn't appear to have a name.

Right now for me my favorite thai meal would be deep fried Larb Moo for starter & chicken masaman curry for the main. Washed down with an ice cold glass of beer and a glass of house red wine ???? Possibly some 'Nam Tok' for desert with my beer... What is your favorite Thai food? What sort of Nam Tok can you eat as a dessert? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a strong Laos influence in this area, both in food and language, so that is probably why the wife knows how to cook it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
