A Singaporean's guide to living in Thailand

[eatshitndie]

Got somehow entangled in your #69 brain cell. Better than the proverbial coitus interruptus, when kena hard landing (in the cabin's loo) :p

or better than being a gynae having to see hordes of ladies spreading legs and having to enter with scope.

Just had my brunch by the roadside, a southern Thailand food stall

The stall

Southern Thailand dishes, many spicy dishes

Different types of curry

Fancy a meal here?

3 dishes - pork dry curry, cabbage, braised egg : $2.00 for a meal like this (without soup, the sour soup costs $1.50 so total is $3.50)

Khao kaeng thai usually very aroi. i now stick to one shop in Thepprasit. Tried almost all the curry. all no horse run.

quite mao now. search in handphone cannot find the photos of Khao Kaeng tai I had this afternoon.

Amazing Thailand.

Hope our bro riding bike in Thailand pay attention to his rear mirrors always.

The driver was clearly busy on the phone but blamed the brakes.

This is very big case now. there is a part two of this video showing the mata dis not attend to the victim but was attending to a group of dek waen aka underaged motorsai kids (extort money 500 baht each)

tomorrow when i not mao, will post the part 2 video.

Very good khao kaeng tai (southern curry rice)shop at thepprasit. Regular here.

The stall owner charge 40 baht for rice with 1 dish or 50 baht for rice with 2 dish.

Cook in small quantity, thats why very nice.

This is bloody expensive - 1 dish plus rice 40 baht? Ridiculous

Saw my post 3 dishes plus rice is 50 baht and even then I think is not cheap

Tried steam Gang Kaew (mantis prawns) last night. Quite a disappointment as not as much meat as compared to prawns. The stall owner told us small size gang kaew is cheaper than prawns. Because took a long time for it to grow to big size. But once it reach 6 inches, the price increase exponentially. And those bigs size gang kaew all chop by the restaurants already.

Before steam.

After steam.

Yup. Agree is quite expensive but taste really good. Can tell that the stall owner(khun Yaai granny) only cooked in small amount, so the quality of the food is quite good. Packed during lunch hours as the nearby Southern curry rice stalls cannot fight this one.
