iDine Bangkok - nahm with David Thompson
David Thompson is an Aussie that has created a little controversy along the way. He received a Michelin star for his Thai Restaurant in London and now has his second nahm in the capital of Thailand at the Metropolitan, Bangkok. Here he talks about 'authenticity' among other things.
Amazing Local Thai Food in Koh Samui
Read the full restaurant review here: but you can read more about this resort here:
On Day 2 in Koh Samui (be sure to check out Day 1 if you haven’t already: ) we woke up after a great night’s sleep at Santiburi Beach Resort. The first thing I did in the morning was take a morning swim - one of the best times to take a swim with the sun is not strong, the water is calm, and it’s peaceful and quiet. After a swim in the ocean at Mae Nam beach, we continued onto breakfast at the hotel. Breakfast was a buffet style, and it was pretty typically of any hotel buffet - including all the stations of different types of food. I went straight for the omelet, and loaded it with chilies and fish sauce. Breakfast was excellent.
After finishing breakfast, we headed to Santiburi Country Club to take a quick tour of their golf course. The course is the only full course on Koh Samui, and it’s considered to be one of the most beautiful golf courses in Thailand. We drove around the course on a golf cart, stopping at some of the main holes to get a wonderful view of Koh Samui.
Then it was time for lunch… and this turned out to be one of the best lunches and probably the best meals I had in Koh Samui. Food in Koh Samui is sort of hard - there are many Thai restaurants that cater to tourists, and at those restaurant the food can be good, but it also might not be that good. It really depends. But in my opinion, one of the best ways to find the best restaurants in Koh Samui for local southern Thai food is to go to the roadside, or neighborhood local curry and rice restaurants, in Thai called Khao Gaeng. Recommended by some staff from our hotel, we headed over to Lan Saka (ร้านลานสกา) for lunch. We arrived right at lunch time, so the restaurant was busy and unfortunately some of the dishes had already sold out. But they still have plenty of curry left, and so Ying and I ordered a nice selection of different southern Thai food to eat. We ended up ordering about 5 different dishes. The gaeng moo (แกงหมู), pork curry, was curried in a thick and rich coconut milk curry and the curry paste flavor was vibrant. We also ordered a chicken curry which was equally as good. All the other dishes were also excellent, and it really was probably the best Thai meal I had in Koh Samui.
After lunch at Lan Saka (ร้านลานสกา) restaurant, we headed back to Santiburi and just hung around all afternoon enjoying the beautiful atmosphere and transferring to different lounge positions. It was an excellent day in Koh Samui.
That completes Day 2 of our short trip to Koh Samui.

How to Eat Thai Nam Prik (Thai Chili Sauce นำ้พริก)
Nam prik (or nam phrik, น้ำพริก), Thai chili sauces, are a component of one of the most typical, everyday Thai meals. Check out some of the most common Thai nam prik here:
I think Thai nam prik (น้ำพริก) is one of the most under recognized dishes, or meals of Thai cuisine. There are many different types of chili sauces that you’ll come across in Thailand, some ranging from spicy and hot, other are fish tasting, and others are sweet and sour. Some are more sauce like, others are almost spreadable, and others are more sticky or liquidity. Nam prik (น้ำพริก) is the common name used to refer to all sorts of different chili sauces.
The way you eat nam prik (น้ำพริก) is along with a pile of boiled vegetables, which can included everything from long beans to eggplant, to morning glory. The chili sauces are also eaten with things like fried crispy fish or omelets. Also, a plate of rice is usually included in a full meal of nam prik (น้ำพริก) eating in Thailand. You can either choose to take some vegetables or fish, and dip it straight into the bowl or bag of nam prik, or you can choose to take some fish or vegetables onto your plate and spoon on some Thai chili sauce to get a full range bite of everything including rice. Either way works well, and both methods of eating are equally as popular.
Most of the time, Thai nam prik (น้ำพริก) is seen as one of the most basic and everyday foods in Thailand and it’s available in nearly every market. Most Thais would just drop by their market, order whatever nam prik they’d like, and then vendor will bag it up, along with whatever boiled vegetables and fish they chose, and then the person will head home to eat it. There’s usually never seating. You’ll also find nam prik (น้ำพริก) at nicer restaurants in Thailand where they might serve nam prik as a sort of an hordeavure dish. However, you rarely find a street food stall that serves Thai chili sauces (น้ำพริก) on the street, that also has tables and chairs for you to eat it right there.
I was pretty thrilled to find this Bangkok street food stall that dishes up delicious chili sauces (น้ำพริก) for lunch, and also has chairs for you to sit it. The first thing you do when you arrive is walk up to the front and choose all the vegetables and fish or other items that you’d like and put them on a plate. One of the most popular Thai nam prik (น้ำพริก) is nam prik kapi (น้ำพริกกะปิ), chili sauce made with fermented shrimp paste - it’s such a delicious combination of fishy, salty, sour, and spicy. Along with boiled vegetables and the crispy fish, it was marvelous. I also ordered nam prik da daeng (น้ำพริกตาแดง), translated from Thai as red eye chili sauce. It was less spicy than it looked (it looks on fire), but it had a nice chili flavor, plus a hint of sweetness to balance it out. Finally, for my third Thai chili sauce, I ordered nam prik pla ra (น้ำพริกปลาร้า), chili sauce made with fermented fish sauce. This was also delicious, a little fishy, but with so much depth of flavor. Along with the vegetables and chili sauces, I also ordered a pla too tod (which is a fried mackerel ปลาทูทอด), a couple pieces of pla tod krob (crispy fish ปลาทอดกรอบ), and last but not least cha om kai (an omelet filled with climbing wattle shoots ชะอมไข่).
Again, I think Thai nam prik (น้ำพริก) is one of my favorite parts of Thai cuisine, I love the compound flavors, and of course, the general spice and strong flavors that normally accompany each version. I also really like the vegetables and fried fish that goes with it. So if you’re interested in having a real local Thai meal, you should sample a variety of different Thai nam prik chili sauces.
You’ll find nam prik everywhere in Thailand, but usually for takeaway. If you’re in Bangkok and want to try this place here are the details:
Open hours: 11:30 am - about 3 pm (usually Tuesday - Saturday, but just so you know, this is street food, so sometimes they are closed without warning)
Prices: Our full meal here, everything we ate cost 130 THB (about $4)
How to get there: The stall is located right at the base of Sukhumvit Soi 101 in Bangkok, just a 20 second walk from Punnawithi BTS station exit #1.

Tom from Chaseki Tea ( and Joel (
This video begins an ultimate Thai food tour of Chiang Mai, Thailand. Get ready for some incredibly delicious Northern Thai food!
Khao soi (ข้าวซอย sometimes khao soy), or curry noodles, is one of the most popular Thai dishes in northern Thailand. It has a very unique history and though details are not completely known, most say that it originally was brought from Yunnan, China through Myanmar, adapting along the way, and finally reaching Chiang Mai, where it’s become of the iconic foods. In Thailand though, is where the dish accumulated coconut milk, which is found in most version now.
What is khao soi (ข้าวซอย)? Khao soi (ข้าวซอย) typically includes yellow egg noodles of some form, which are combined with a meat - usually beef or chicken (and I typically order beef as much as I can) - topped in coconut milk curry sauce, and finally sprinkled with coconut cream, and finally topped with crispy fried noodles.
There’s a massive debate over who serves the best khao soi in Chiang Mai, and I don’t think it will ever be resolved because everyone has a different taste. But along with the help of my friend Tom (from Chaseki tea shop in Chiang Mai: and Joel, we set off to eat 5 bowls of khao soi in a row to share with you what we think is the best khao soi in Chiang Mai, Thailand.
Here are the restaurants we ate at:
1. Khao Soi Islam (ร้านข้าวซอยอิสลาม - This is a longtime restaurant serving khao soi in what is known to be quite a traditional version. It’s a Halal restaurant, and their beef is amazing, but the curry is quite mild in spice.
Price - 60 THB ($1.82) for big bowl
2. Khao Soi Khun Yai (ร้านข้าวซอยคุณยาย - Next we went to Khao Soi Khun Yai (ร้านข้าวซอยคุณยาย), what was many years ago one of my favorite bowls, but this time?
Price - 40 THB ($1.22) per bowl
3. Khao Soi Loong Prakid Kad Gom (ข้าวซอย ลุงประกิจกาดก้อม - Many locals from Chiang Mai recommended I check out Khao Soi Loong Prakid Kad Gom (ข้าวซอย ลุงประกิจกาดก้อม), and it was amazing. The size, and the taste were spectacular.
Price - 40 THB ($1.22) per bowl
4. Khao Soi Mae Manee (ข้าวซอยแม่มณี - About a 10 minute drive from the center of Chiang Mai we found ourselves in a neighborhood for our fourth bowl of khao soi at Khao Soi Mae Manee (ข้าวซอยแม่มณี). The Aunty was so friendly and I watched her as she assembled our bowls, amazing.
Price - 40 THB ($1.22) per bowl
5. Khao Soi Mae Sai (ร้านข้าวซอยแม่สาย - Finally, to end this best khao soi tour of Chiang Mai we went to Khao Soi Mae Sai (ร้านข้าวซอยแม่สาย), what is one of the most popular restaurants to eat khao soi in Chiang Mai.
Price - 50 THB ($1.52) per bowl
Make sure you watch the entire video to find out the best khao soi in Chiang Mai!
