Some of my favorite street food shots in Thailand. I loved taking pictures in this country. I whittled down 1400 pictures to 983, and now I’m slowly sharing a few of my favorites. A lot of these shots came from our days in Bangkok, but many from other parts of Thailand – street food really is everywhere.<\/p>\n

I’m curious what looks good enough to eat to you, and what you’d just pass on by – are you adventurous, do you eat street food?<\/strong> (Want more street food? Check out my post on Street Food in India<\/a><\/em>)<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Quail eggs cracked fresh and cooked up bright and yellow.<\/p>\n

\"Fried<\/a><\/p>\n

Dried fish of all kinds – these cuttlefish (or seppie<\/em>, in Italian) spoke to me particularly.<\/p>\n

\"Dried<\/a><\/p>\n

Sweet corn on the cob, or just the kernels in a cup. (I miss corn on the cob in Italy – it’s called pannocchio, but rarely available and often “sotto vuoto” – shrink-wrapped ears which don’t seem very fresh).<\/p>\n

\"Sweet<\/a><\/p>\n

Mountain strawberries I saw everywhere – for savvy shoppers, note that they stuff strawberry leaves at the bottom of those bags to make them seem fuller. Probably still a deal. I loved the dried strawberries rolled in sugar (diabetics, beware).<\/p>\n

\"Mountain<\/a><\/p>\n

Fava beans are popular in Italy but eaten fresh or dried…I’d never seen them fried like in Thailand. They were great to munch on.<\/p>\n

\"Fried<\/a><\/p>\n

I’ll never get tired of grilled shrimp, in any country.<\/p>\n

\"Grilled<\/a><\/p>\n

Simply put..balls of many types. Better called “satay” – all types of meat and tofu skewered and grilled so it’s hot when you eat it. Some of them cost as little as 5 baht for a stick (that’s 12 cents in case you’re using the Euro!)<\/p>\n

\"Many<\/a><\/p>\n

An obsession and a great way to cool off – a whole “mini” pineapple cut up and served with skewers for less than a dollar\/euro.<\/p>\n

\"Cut<\/a><\/p>\n

Roasted peanuts which we carried around to stave off hunger later in the trip (when street food wasn’t as accessible).<\/p>\n
