In Central Thailand
Famous as the most developed region of Thailand, the Central was a fertile area in the past. When talking about Thai night life, perhaps the first thing crossing your mind is the exciting sight of street carts filled with delicious foods in Bangkok. Let’s learn all about them now!
1. Pad Thai
(Stir-Fried Noodles)
Pad Thai is perhaps the most famous and unskippable Thai dish. Interestingly, this culinary staple was actually created by a Prime Minister in the 1930s, Plaek Phibunsongkhram. World War II and the floods were causing rice shortages at that time.
Moreover, Thailand is also on its way to building national identity during this era. Therefore, the government has promoted noodles as a way to either reduce domestic rice consumption or establish a national dish. As a result, the first Pad Thai was made in Bangkok.
The traditional recipe call for tofu, egg, chicken, prawn, and of course, noodles – all stir-fried on a wok with hearty vegetables. Initially, the former government used Chinese noodles to create this dish but eventually invented their own noodles as a way to polish nationalism.
Then, the new kind of Thai-originated noodles was named Sen Chan, after the province name of Chanthaburi. It’s a kind of thin dried noodles that will be rehydrated once cooked. The Thais not only use Sen Chan for Pad Thai but also many other noodle dishes nowadays.
Phibunsongkhram called his invention Pad. Today, though there are countless variations, many street food vendors still use his recipe. The sour taste of tamarind juice and the spiciness of red chili pepper won’t allow you to forget the flavorful Pad Thai.
2. Pad See Ew
(Stir-Fried Noodles With Soy Sauce)
As the name has suggested, this is a variation of Pad Thai though it’s more likely related to a well-known recipe from China – stir-fried noodles. These immigrants either inspire the noodles or the cooking method of Pad See Ew.
The Thais create this dish with Kuaitiao – a Chinese-style board rice noodle – with thick soy sauces, tofu, meat, and broccoli. The meat and vegetable bases for this dish are hearty, hence you’ll be full of energy for hours after having it.
3. Tom Yum Goong
(Spicy Shrimp Soup)
Tom Yum is a spicy, sour, creamy soup that originated in Thailand and is famous among other Asian foods. You can even find it as a flavor of Thai instant noodles or snacks.
Interestingly, while Tom Yum only indicates the soup base, many people have mistaken that shrimp as its vital ingredient for a long time. So that now “Tom Yum” and “Tom Yum Goong” – which includes shrimp – are interchangeable.
On the other hand, the irreplaceable elements of this culinary staple are coconut milk, chili pepper, lemongrass, and most importantly, Thai lime/Kaffir lime leaves.
Tom Yum Goong is a perfect dish to welcome you to a Thai party. However, it can also be a nice main dish with steamed rice.
4. Kuai Tiao Ruea
(Boat Noodle Soup)
A lovely name for a delicious noodle dish. Initially, this dish is sold in the float markets or on boats navigated across the big cities’ canals. You can also find Kuai Tiao Ruea on the streets or Thai restaurants these days as well.
Though the options for the broth and topping are numerous, the bowl consists of bean sprout, morning glory, pork liver, and meat bases. Some traditional Thai recipes also top the dish with animal blood in order to thicken and give a distinct flavor.
The bowl size to serve Kuai Tiao Ruea is usually small due to the way people sold it in the old days. There was only one person to work on everything on a small boat, so if the bowls are big, it’ll less be convenient and rugged to handle it to the customer.
5. Gaeng Keow Wan Gai
(Green Curry)
Gaeng Keow Wan Gai is originated in central Thailand. It’s a combination of chicken, baby eggplant, lemongrass, coconut milk, and kaffir lime leaves. The green curry paste consists of many spices, but the aroma you can feel is mostly from cumin and coriander.
This paste was an invention of the Thais during the 1900s and the 1920s, under King Rama VI or King Rama VII era.
The word “Wan” in Thai means “sweet green”, indicating the mild green color of the dish, not the taste. Compared with other curries in Thailand, you can consider that Gaeng Keow Wan Gai has a more pungent flavor.
6. Satay
(Grilled Meat With Peanut Sauce)
If you’re from America and into Thai cuisine, you must have mistaken that Satay is a traditional dish of Thailand, but that’s not true. Actually, Thais Satay stems from the familiar Indonesian gastronomy.
There are many theories about this mesmerizing food’s origin and development story. Still, the first restaurant to serve it’s in Yaowarat Road, Bangkok, which then moved to Rama IV Road more than 50 years ago.
The Thais Satay is not so distant from the original version, consisting of skews of grilled meat with a sauce combination of soy and peanut. Though you can use any type of meat for Satay, Thai street cooks mostly offer marinated chicken or pork.
7. Malang Tod
(Fried Insects)

(Stewed Pork Leg On Rice)
At this stage of the article, you can tell that the Chinese strongly inspire Thai gastronomy. However, there are still so many differences between Thai and Chinese cuisine. And Khao Kha Moo is a perfect example.

In Northern Thailand
The North of Thailand is famous for Lanna cuisine and owns many vibrant flavors. Though regional street food is not so well-known, you shouldn’t skip Chiangmai since you can find specialty dishes here with massive deliciousness.
10. Khao Soi
(Curry Noodles)
This is another influence from the Chinese immigrants. Traditionally, Khao Soi is the name of the noodles themself. The chefs will form a large dough sheet, steam it, then roll and cut it with scissors to make these noodles.
However, the Thais prefer to understand Khao Soi as a delicious soup dish that they have created. It consists of curry broth, meat bases, and noodles – both in the soup and the deep-fried topping. Before enjoying this delicacy, you ought to toss everything with your chopstick.
Though you may find Khao Soi in either restaurants or vendors across the country, it’s more popular as a street food staple in the northern regions, such as Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai. In addition, you can also find counterparts of Khao Soi in Thailand’s neighboring countries.
11. Tom Kha Gai
(Coconut Soup)
Coconut milk is a famous ingredient in Southeast Asian foods. In Thailand, Tom Kha Gai highlights the deliciousness of coconut milk, combining chicken, fish sauce, chili, and multiple spices.

12. Som Tam
(Papaya Salad)
If you’re in America, you have a high chance to enjoy this delicacy in any Thai restaurant nearby. Som Tam is basically a mixture of green papaya thin strips, peanuts, tomatoes, dried shrimps, and a wide array of condiments.
People are still debating on Som Tam’s origin these days. Some believe that it was an invention of Laos in order to utilize the abundant papaya plants, while most Thais will insist that Som Tam is a creation of the Isanese – people of the Isan region.
Despite its origin, Som Tam is still a worldwide famous salad. The Thais serve it as an accompaniment for either rice or grilled dishes.
In addition, though Som Tam is notorious for spiciness, you don’t have to be aware. It’s customary for the hawkers to ask you about the desired taste.

15. Nam Tok
(Spicy Beef Salad)
Nam Tok is another originating food from the Isan province. Legend has it that based on the fact of the cooking method, in which the locals will grill this beef on hot charcoal until it “sizzles”, replicating the waterfall sound, the Isanese call this delicacy the Waterfall Salad.
