A SELECTION OF THAI
DISHES
It may be that you are not
accustomed to spicy food, but
don’t worry about that as there
are also many Thai people who
can’t take it too spicy. You just
have to tell the serving staff “not
spicy please” or in Thai “ Mai
aow phet”.
If you can’t take spicy at all, then
safe dishes for you would be:-
Khao phat gai - fried rice with
chicken.
Khao phat moo - fried rice with
pork.
Khao phat goong - fried rice
with prawns.
Khao phat boo - fried rice with
crab meat
Gai yang khao neeow -
barbecued chicken with sticky
rice.
The restaurant may suggest other
non spicy dishes.
If you are missing your local grub
from home, there is a plethora of
restaurants serving food from all
over the world. Brits can even find
fish‘n chips and pub food. Many
Italian, French, Chinese, Japanese,
Korean restaurants can be found.
The Thai eateries are countless,
from street food to various levels
of restaurants.
We suggest you exercise caution
about eating street food. Many
visitors don’t have the same
constitution as the locals and a
possible lack of cleanliness in the
food or the dishes and or eating
utensils could give you a severe
touch of Bangkok belly resulting
in sickness or spending a great
deal of valuable holiday time
paying urgent visits to the loo.
Also, don’t overdo it on the exotic
fruits which could also give upset
tummies.
Most of the Thai Pharmacies
will have something to help
cure these ailments including
Immodium. Most staff at
pharmacies speak English.
Perhaps a safer venue for eating
simple local food would be in a
food court. Most of the big stores
and shopping malls have a food
court where you can have a Thai
dish for less than 150 Baht.

others.
