You get it in the little street opposite of Soi Eric. But be carefully it is very very spicy for a farang!!!! |
I usually get som tam for a small food market area off nanai road , very cheap meal indeed , i usually have it with fish or BBQ chicken but im not sure about the chicken this year because of this terrible bird flu, i remember the 1st time i tried som tam and will never forget how slowly but surely the heat turned up several degrees in my mouth , ouch!!! i also cut my tongue on one of those crab claws you find in it , it seems to be a one of the thai peoples favourite cheap meals , som tam, fish and stick rice (or sticky rie as they say)
i also like that noodle soup you can by at those roadside places with plastic chairs , the soup with some kind of grey/brown coloured meat balls , noodles and veg and topped off with plenty of fish sauce , brown sugar and whatever else they put in those little silver pots (like that orange coloured stuff , dont know what it is but i like it). i forget the name of the soup though but im sure someone here can tell me .
