Some of my friends travel to drink in one’s culture; others want
to see places they have never seen before. One of the main reasons why I travel
is to eat, particularly on the street. I think street food is where you can
have an authentic experience of one’s culture. The best foods that I have ever
tasted in Thailand where eaten standing up in the side streets of Bangkok. There’s
a Filipino saying which states that “ Mas Madumi, mas masarap” or in English ”
If it’s dirtier the more delicious it will be”. Don’t be afraid of trying something new
because a taste of it, may change your
view in life forever.
I will suggest to you my Top 12 must eat Thai Street Food. I
suggest that you should not leave Thailand without eating the my top 12 suggestions. Thai Street food is sold just about everywhere. I suggest that you
explore the different side streets this is where you can find the best that
Thailand has to offer.
