Khlong San Market, Yaowarat, & the Pyromaniac Chef | Food Travel Vlog #3

Read the full post here:
A few weeks ago I mentioned in a video that I was hired to be the host of a Thai food tv show, for a cable station in Thailand. It’s been quite a journey so far, we’ve eaten so much delicious Thai food, and I’ve had so many unique and amazing local experiences and food experiences. For the first few days I wasn’t recording much of the behinds the scenes, but since we visited so many great places I decided to try and record some behind the scenes vlogs of the places we visited and the food we ate.
Here are the main places I visited in this travel food vlog video:
1. Khlong San Market (ตลาดคลองสาน): We started by going to Khlong San Market (ตลาดคลองสาน) where I had the most amazing juice of my life, green apple mixed with fingerroot.
2. Rom Pho Restaurant (ร้านอาหารร่มโพธิ์): This restaurant is located just off a small road from Khlong San Market, specializing in Thai Isaan food, and especially som tam (green papaya salad). We did some filming there, and also had a delicious lunch before moving on.
3. Yaowarat (เยาวราช), Chinatown: One of the most famous places for food in Bangkok is Yaowarat Chinatown.
4. Khao Gaeng Jake Puey (ข้าวแกงเจ๊กปุ้ย): An extremely famous Thai rice and curry restaurant in Yaowarat. I had eaten here before, but being with the TV show, I had access to the kitchen and behind the scenes.
5. Wat Mangkon Kamalawat (วัดมังกรกมลาวาส): The most well known and important Thai Chinese Buddhist temples in Bangkok.
6. Fikeaw Yaowarat Restaurant (ร้านไฟเขียว เยาวราช): To end the day, we went to Fikeaw Yaowarat Restaurant (ร้านไฟเขียว เยาวราช), a street food stall in Yaowarat that’s known for its pyromaniac chef. He cooks on an insanely hot fire.
This was day 6 in the Thai food tv show documentary filming - it was a long day, but it was so much fun as well.
