Thailand Travel: Food Tour

I love tropical climates and Thailand is a country I go to often. I have countless nicknames in Thailand: Japanese food killer, hot pot killer, buffet killer, steak killer, fried rice killer, barbecue killer, fried skewer killer, pho killer, meatball killer...

To be honest, most of the time what I eat in Thailand are actually all kinds of fried rice, rice bowls, pho, noodles, etc., or go to the market to buy ready-made dishes, accompanied by white rice; when in the north , I may also have some sticky rice with roasted chicken and roast pork from time to time. In the south, yellow rice is served with fried chicken. Many working Thais have similar daily diets.

Traveling is of course different from daily work, travel pays attention to the word "happiness". It is one of my pleasures to taste all kinds of food while traveling. I watched the weight soar, and when I rode the elephant, I felt the elephant's legs trembling feebly. In fact, every time I eat in a restaurant, it is closely related to the memory of the past, and I can't help thinking of the people and things in the past.

In the past, whenever I went to Bangkok to take a flight back, I had to go to the Siam business district. At that time, many friends liked to go to a chain of Japanese-style self-service revolving hot pot restaurants called Shabushi. Each customer is about 300 to 400 baht, and the time limit is about 1 hour and 20 minutes. The dishes served are very rich there. I often eat with an open stomach. Whatever dishes I like are brought down from the conveyor belt, and it will not take long for me to buried in the empty plates stacked high, and I have a great sense of accomplishment. In Malaysia, there was a similar revolving hot pot restaurant, but they charged by the plate, so I had to count it every time I ate it. The price varies according to the color of the plate. In addition to Shabushi, MK is also a relatively common chain hot pot restaurant in Thailand, but there are more steps to order.

Japanese food stores in big cities in Thailand are extremely common. For example, in large shopping malls in Bangkok, there are many Japanese food stores with strange names that are full of Japanese style at a glance. The ones I go to most often are the chain resturants: Fuji and Yoyoi. I especially like the set meal box of both, which is under $15 and has everything from sashimi to sushi to tempura to grilled fish. For example, if you go to Yoyoi, you can also get a membership card. Not only do you have discounts at checkout, but you may also get small gifts.

In addition to Japanese food, steak is also a good choice for meat eaters to fully satisfy the appetite of the stomach. There are also two steakhouses I frequently go to: one is Sizzler and the other is Jeffer. The price is extremely affordable. Every time I went to Jeffer, I had to order a multi-person set meal and eat 4 pieces of steak alone, which completely confirmed my identity as a “carnivor”. Moreover, what really makes me feel the most is the Thai-style self-service barbecue hot pot, which is a combination of barbecue and simmering. The price of Thai-style self-service barbecue hotpot is often affordable, no more than 200 baht per customer. The barbecued meat with sweet and spicy sauce makes me smile.

After having the meat, we should have dessert as well. Häagen-Dazs and DQ should be put aside. In Thailand, I recommend Swensen's, an ice cream store chain. You can easily be captured by the beauty of the ice cream balls. I, who don't like sweets, would also like to sit in the store and dig a durian boat spoon by spoon.

This time I came to Thailand and received warm hospitality from several friends. Our original plan to go to Phuket was rejected by a friend. We chose to continue tasting food from all over the world when we arrived in Bangkok. I think food always brings me great joy.
