TOP 5 BEST THAI DISHES! | My Favorite Thai Food in Bangkok, Thailand!
Huge thank you to Greg from Travizeo for filming and making this video!
Subscribe now: for 2 new videos every week.
A totally different style video today, hope you enjoy it!
One of the most common questions I get asked is Mark, “what are your favorite Thai foods?” And so when Greg was in Bangkok I thought it would be an awesome idea to cover when he was filming with his amazing video skills.
By the way, Greg films cinematic travel videos for brands and promotions, and he also happens to love to eat! Go check out his videos ( and website for more details ( And I was very excited when he offered to film and edit a video for me.
Choosing my favorite Thai dishes is a very hard thing to do, but I narrowed it down.
1. Braised beef fire pot (เกาเหลาเนื้อหม้อไฟ) at Heng Chun Seng (ร้าน เฮ้งชุนเส็ง) - There’s just about nothing better to eat for breakfast in Bangkok, and after trying quite a few versions, Heng Chun Seng is still my favorite. The beef is tender and most of all the soup is so fragrant from the herbs and beef. Google map:
2. Holy basil stir fry (กระเพราหมูสับ) at Ung Jia Huad (ร้านอึ้งเจี่ยฮวด) - If there’s one dish that could be the most popular and beloved easy to eat Thai food, it’s holy basil stir fry (with your choice of meat). It’s a dish that always hits the spot. Google map:
3. Green papaya salad (ตำปูปลาร้า) Stall on Sukhumvit - You’ll find green papaya salad on just about every street corning in Bangkok and throughout Thailand. My favorite version is som tam boo plaraa, dressed with fermented fish sauce.
4. Fish viscera curry (แกงไตปลา) at Janhom (ร้านจันทร์หอม) - Southern Thai food is always a favorite of mine, and gaeng tai pla, or a curry made with fish viscera is one of the most flavorful Thai foods of them all. Google map:
5. Jungle curry (แกงป่า) at Pla Mae Nam (ร้านปลาแม่น้ำ) - A dish I just can’t get over, and have to order every chance I have, is Thai jungle curry. It’s an amazing mixture of chilies and herbs, and in this case, fish. This is also one of my favorite restaurants in Bangkok at the moment as well. Google map:
There it is, 5 of my favorite dishes in Thailand. Thank you for watching this video!
Again, huge thank you to Greg from Travizeo for filming and editing this entire video!

Thai Street Food in Bangkok - MOST POPULAR LUNCH Noodles in Downtown Silom, Thailand!
Thai street food lunch tour in Silom, Bangkok!
I met up with my friend Drew Binsky (check out his YouTube channel: and Facebook: to go on a lunch-rush street food tour of Silom.
Silom is one of the main financial business districts of Bangkok, it’s a downtown of Bangkok. Everyday at lunch floods of people from their offices come down for lunch and enjoy delicious street food. What I love so much about Silom is because it has such a vibrant and busy lunchtime rush, and that’s part of the fun.
We arrived a little early, to get a couple lunches in before the main lunch. The highlight of this Thai street food tour for me was Kuay Teow Khae (ก๋วยเตี๋ยวแคะ (โคตร โคตร) คอนแวนต์), one of the most popular lunch noodles shops in Bangkok!
Ok, here’s all the food we ate in this tour:
Khao Man Gai Ban Deed Kim (ข้าวมันไก่บัญฑิตคิม) - If you’ve ever gotten off the BTS at Sala Daeng station and walked down Soi Convent, you’ve probably walked right by this stall. And I’ve walked past it hundreds of times, but this was actually my first time to stop and eat there. They are well known in Bangkok for their khao man gai (ข้าวมันไก่), Thai style Hainanese chicken and rice. We each ordered a plate to get things started. Overall, very good, light fluffy rice with just the right amount if chicken oil, bouncy chicken, and fermented soybean sauce.
Price - 50 THB ($1.52)
Yee Jay (ยีเจ ก๋วยเตี๋ยวเนื้อตุ๋น-หมูตุ๋น) - Next we took a little walk through Silom, Downtown Bangkok, to another popular beef noodle shop. Again, it was my first time to eat here. We arrived before the main lunch rush, but at 11 am they were already preparing for the crowds with big amounts of meat waiting to be served. We had bowls of everything (เกาเหลาทุกอย่าง), including organs and braised beef. Their soup was fragrant with Chinese spices and the aroma of beef. It’s not the best bowl of braised beef soup in Bangkok, but it’s decent.
Price - 70 THB ($2.14)
Kuay Teow Khae (ก๋วยเตี๋ยวแคะ (โคตร โคตร) คอนแวนต์) - Finally for the main lunch, we went to one of the most popular Thai street food noodle stalls in Silom. For lunch everyday they are packed, every single seat, and if you arrive at a time like when we did, you have to wait to get a seat - sometimes 30 minutes or more. They have a few different options, but we all ordered their signature special bowl (เส้นโซบะยำแห้ง), including egg noodles topped with everything. This is one of the better single bowls of noodles in Bangkok in my opinion.
Price - 60 THB ($1.83)
Khanom Tokyo (ขนมโตเกียว (ลุงโตเกียว) - Lastly, to end this Thai street food tour in Bangkok, we were just walking past with Uncle Tokyo called us over to try his snacks. He makes both savory (with a hot dog) and sweet versions, filled with a variety of different custards. Drew and I had to try the hot dog, mostly just for fun… I’ll be honest, not a big fan of Thai hot dogs, but the sweet ones were great. And Uncle Tokyo is such a nice friendly man. If you are on Soi Convent in Silom around lunchtime, go say hi to him!
Price - 4 for 10 THB ($0.30)
And that completes this Thai street food tour in Silom, hope you enjoyed it!

WHAT HAPPENED TO KHAO SAN ROAD? | Bangkok Market, Nightlife & Backpacker Heaven
Khao San Road was the nightlife hub of Bangkok, famous in Thailand. It's still a night market, but is it still a backpacker haven? ✈ Our 220 page guide on how to travel for a living —
Khao San Road is one of the most famous and iconic areas in Bangkok.. maybe even all of Thailand. Khao San night market has always been a thing, but it was also famous for it's bars, street vendors, fake goods, tattoo shops, massage parlours and more.
This travel vlog takes us on a trip to see if it's still what it was, to see if the old Koh San Road nightlife is still worth visiting! Because In August 2018 restrictions were put on the vendors, stopping them from being out in the day time and restricting where they could go in the evening after 6pm only. Apparently that meant a much more tame existence on the street and less buzz.
From what we experience, the nightlife is still strong, the market setup hasn't gone and things still get a lot more wild if you stay later into the night or early morning! (which we didn't
The Most Beautiful Beach in Vietnam is CON DAO ISLANDS. Vietnam Travel 2015
After 13 days of nonstop traveling, I found myself alone on Con Sao Island part of the Con Dao Islands. Lush green mountains, amazing empty roads for riding, and of course, pristine waters!!! This island is home to 6,000 residents and has the most spectacular beach scenery I've ever seen. I rented a motorbike for the morning and afternoon and rode towards the southern part of the Island and stopped at various points that looked beautiful. Even though I brought along a tripod, I actually only used found objects like route markers and rocks and trees as tripods. This made me even more aware of my surroundings and offered some shots. I had a great time making this video, I hope you guys enjoy it. A lot more Con Dao videos coming up. Stay tuned and be sure to subscribe.

Top 7 countries where to find a Dreamy Women, Dunya ke 7 Mulkon Ki AyashBaz Larkiyan
Topic: Top 7 countries where to find Your Dreamy women in Urdu/Hindi.
7. The ever-welcoming Philippines:
The advantage of Philippines brides is that it is easy to take them out of their country. Unlike many Asian countries, the Philippines is a very easy come-and-go place; its regulations are friendly.
Most women from the Philippines are allowed to work elsewhere in the world, in the United States in particular. They speak good English.
6. Hot Colombian women:
Where to find a wife in Latin America? We suggest Colombia. It is one of the most popular countries in the world from which the girls are taken to be wives.
The country is changing rapidly; it is no longer a narcos-driven country with the high crime rate and slave-holding, as it used to be in the middle of the past century.
Columbia is on the top in the list of South American countries in terms of where to find a wife. Colombian girls are stunningly well-shaped and gracefully moving.
A competition for a good man is very high in Colombia, as a lot of decent men went to or got into prison due to the troubled history of the country.
Like many other Latino women, some Colombian girls do not care about age. They want a decent man to be a husband, regardless what age is he. That makes an easy search among Colombian girls for middle-aged men.
A lot of Colombian women are lone mothers who left their men because the latter didn’t treat them properly. This is also a factor if you want to marry a mature woman with a kid.
The only thing that would make things harder is a language barrier. Not many girls speak good English over there.
5. Find your Asian beauty in Thailand:
Thailand is characterized by the high rates of poverty and beautiful women. These factors make Thailand one of the most lucrative places where to find a wife.
The Thai people believe that white-skinned people are in all ways preferable than the people with a skin of color. As Thai men are swarthy-looking, any man with a white skin has the advantage to find a good-looking wife there.
Thai women know how to take care of their beauty; at all times they look alluring.
On the downside, the Thai women are notorious for their oddities. They seem to project some out-of-this-world image and may be hard to socialize with. They also prefer keeping their elegance and charm to their husbands only and would rather not spare time in taking care of a family.
If you are looking for an exotic wife as opposed to a good housekeeper, this country is for you.
4. The diverse Brazilian beauties:
Brazilian girls are famous for their diversity. They can be different from one another in everything from their outlook and body-shape to their manners and personalities. There is no stereotyped Brazilian woman, as this country went through many transformations and has its population spread in rapidly megalopolises like Sao-Paolo and Rio as well as in smaller villages with ancient traditions. This diversity makes Brazil a true paradise and sometimes makes men puzzled as to where exactly to find a wife in Brazil.
Some Brazilian women may look like sultry Colombians, some resemble Australian women, and some look like women in Iran. There are no limits.
It is worth to note that most women in Brazil are Catholics and free to choose who they want to marry, which makes them rather hard to tame at times.
3. A wife from exotic Vietnam:
Seductive as itself, women from Vietnam came on the radars of men from the West since the devastating which brought some pleasant discoveries despite all the controversies.Being attractive in a colorful way, women from Vietnam are well aware of their qualities. They would like to meet a decent and caring husband.
The shortcomings are that it is hard to say where exactly in Vietnam one is to find a wife. There are mostly tiny villages in Vietnam scattered across the country, and it will take an effort in looking for Vietnamese beauties, unless, of course, you use the Internet.
2. Women from China as tradition-bound wives:
China is populated with women of famed beauty, manners and all sorts of housekeeping skills. This is definitely a place where a man can find a wife in a traditional sense. What is curious, unlike many other Asian brides, women in China are not really eager to lose their homeland for a marriage. They are definitely picky and selective when it comes to the question of marriage with a foreigner. This hard-to-get quality makes them even more attractive.
1. Where to find a wife in Ukraine?
The answer is: everywhere. Your stereotype of a Ukrainian girl would probably be a long-haired, hourglass shaped, blue-eyed model from the top selection of a leading fashion house.Close enough, but Ukrainian women come in a great variety of appearances and traditions.

23 Things To Do In Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City) Vietnam
►Read 23 Things to do in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City), Vietnam:
►FREE eBook:
When I was in Saigon (Ho Chi Minh City), along with eating as much Vietnamese food as I could, one of my goals was to film a travel video about some of the best things to do in Saigon. After putting together a complete list, it turned out to be 23, and I hope this list of attractions will help and inspire you to visit Vietnam’s largest and most exciting city.
1. Binh Tay Market - Binh Tay Market is one of the largest wholesale distribution markets, and a perfect place to go if you’re looking to go shopping in Ho Chi Minh City.
2. Thien Hau Temple (Pagoda) - Located in Chinatown, in District 5, the temple is dedicated to Thien Hau and I really loved the sculptures and the elaborate design of the temple.
3. Museum of Ho Chi Minh City - This museum offers a glimpse into the history and development of the city and Vietnam.
4. Bitexco Financial Tower - This is the tallest building in Saigon, and you can either go to the Skydeck or a cafe at the top for a view of the city.
5. Independence Palace (Reunification Palace) - Probably one of the most well known tourism things to do in Saigon is to visit the Independence Palace, the the former home of the president of South Vietnam during the Vietnam War.
6. Saigon Cathedral of Notre Dame - With the French influence in Vietnam, the Notre Dame cathedral is a beautiful Catholic church. Attend a service or just visit.
7. Central Post Office - Designed by Gustave Eiffel, the Central Post Office in Ho Chi Minh City is an attraction mainly for its design and architecture. It’s a beautiful building.
8. War Remnants Museum - Although this is not one of the happiest attractions in Saigon, it’s a place to remember and honor the horrible events that are a result of a war.
9. Opera House - Right in Dong Khoi area, and there are still opera shows available.
10. Dong Khoi Street - This is the height of high end shopping in Saigon.
11. Saigon Zoo and Botanical Gardens - The zoo itself is not too great, but the beauty of the Saigon zoo is the botanical gardens, and the lush gardens, and taking a break from the city.
12. FITO Museum (Museum of Traditional Vietnamese Medicine) - I was quite impressed by the Vietnamese medicine private museum - very interactive and educational.
13. San Art Laboratory – If you love modern art, the San Art Laboratory is a great place to see and visit in Saigon.
14. Turtle Lake at Night - If you’re looking for some things to do at night in Saigon, head to Turtle Lake to chill out, relax, hang out with friends, and eat snacks.
15. Ben Thanh Market - One of the most famous things to do in Saigon District 1 is visit the Ben Thanh Market, one of the major central landmarks of the city.
16. Phu My Hung and Starlight Bridge - Located outside of central Ho Chi Minh City, Phu My Hung is a modern development, and a great place to walk around.
17. Water Puppet Show - Though originally from the north of Vietnam, water puppet shows are popular also in Saigon. I went to the Golden Dragon Water Puppet theater.
18. Museum of Vietnamese History - Probably one of the most extensive and important museum showing the history of Vietnam and Ho Chi Minh City.
19. Rooftop Bar - Seeing Saigon from above offers a great perspective.
20. Fine Arts Museum - This was my favorite of all the museums in Saigon. The museum is housed in a well preserved building, and the art is amazing - located right in District 1 across the roundabout from Ben Thanh Market.
21. Jade Emperor Pagoda - Dedicated to the Jade Emperor, the pagoda has a real ancient feel to it, and it’s worth seeing when you visit.
22. Local Wet Market - One of my favorite things to do is visit a local fresh wet market, which you’ll find all over the city. The ingredients, food, and culture, all stand out at fresh markets.
23. Vietnamese Street Food - By my ultimate favorite activity in Saigon is eating street food, and there are an abundance of delicious Vietnamese street foods to sample.
Thank you for watching this video about the top 23 things to do in Saigon, Vietnam. I hope it has given you some great ideas to help you plan your visit.
