Photos by MJ Klein  Warning: FOOD PHOTOS!

As you may recall from our last trip to Thailand ^[1], we showed you this area where you can find lots of street food:

This time we’re going to visit each and every food stall and show you they’re preparing.

I’m going to let the photos speak for themselves, with occasional commentary.  Unless otherwise stated, there is one photo for each food stall.

While it may be difficult to order food in many Thai places, these noodle shops are almost the same as they are in Taiwan.

I ordered some Pad Thai from this lady.

This is the dish.  Nice and smelly with the local fish sauce.  Great Isaan version of this dish.

The Pad Thai came with these condiments.

Served with a peanutty sate sauce these pork sticks were great.

This pancake stall is the newest one on the block.

Our last installment is coming up soon and it will be a “This Week in Food” from Thailand!
