$1 Street Food Hunt at Night! / Thai Food Tour in Phitsanulok / Travel in Thailand 2024
Ah, it's hot! Hey hey hey! Welcome back to our hungry adventures! Guys, I'm greeting you from a bridge over River Nan in Phitsanulok province located in 360 km to the north from Bangkok. This is my second visit to Phitsanulok city. I decided to surprise you because today is Saturday. Today there is a Walking Street which I've never visited before. And entire city is visiting this Walking Street, which is why there is that massive traffic jam, of course for everyone but not for motorbikes! And I feel very excited because it's pretty hot in the daytime here in lower Northern Thailand. However in the evening when sun sets down - you feel the air is getting cooler, Which is why you're feeling alive! And today I'm ready to enjoy delicious Northern Thai spicy food together with you! And if you have got some time and empty space in your stomach - you can join me in this hungry adventure! Let's go! Pretty many people here..

Guys, look at this delicious chicken sausage.. deep fried chicken sausage.. It's just so good! You know in Thai food (especially in these kind of snacks) the dipping sauce is the most important thing, because if Nam Jim (sauce) is not delicious - then it will totally ruin your food.. but if it is cooked properly.. if people who cook Nam Jim (sauce) know what they do.. then it's going to be the most amazing food you ever tried! This is one of the reasons why everyone loves Thai food around entire world! Nam Jim (dipping sauce) Phra Buddha Chinnarat.. Oh really? Yeah..
