  • Today I headed to the second biggest mall in Bangkok, Icon Siam, on the Thonburi side of the rive to sample three incredible Thai street food dishes all under one roof. I want to help you find authentic Thai street food wherever you are staying in Bangkok by giving you these little DIY food tours in every area of the city.
    So as you know I'm much happier roaming the streets (pun intended) but with Monday generally being pretty poor for street food in Bangkok due to the fact it's street cleaning day, I thought I'd give you a DIY food tour that you can do anytime, any day, whatever the weather and still get great tasting, authentic Thai street food. Icon Siam is that place!
    This for me is the best food I've had in any mall in Thailand. It's a little pricier than the streets but still very reasonable by western prices!
    Directions and opening times for Icon Siam:

    My name’s Gary and I’ve been living in Bangkok for the past five plus years and travelling Thailand for over ten. I’m obsessed with Thai street food and it’s that obsession that led me to start this RUclips channel. I want to share my favourite hidden spots in Bangkok and the rest of Thailand so you can fall in love with authentic, local Thai food as much as I have!
    I’ve never understood travelling to a town or city and not eating the local food. How else do you really connect with a place? Let’s get out and explore together and I guarantee you’ll find a whole different side to this wonderful country.
    If you love seeing off the beaten path, non-touristy, local life and authentic local life in Bangkok and Thailand then this is the channel for you. If go go bars on the Sukhumvit Road are more your thing (I’m not judging) then maybe not!

    Hi from the most locked down city in the world...Melbourne, Australia. We have finally started opening up to travel and I have already booked to travel to fabulous BKK. I have been following your channel for quite a few years (pre pregnancy and baby) and remember walking behind you down Charoen Krung Road a couple of years ago! I have been to Thailand over 50 times in the past 30 years and can't wait to eat street food again. I have also tried many of the places you have recommended previously and have never been disappointed. Thanks for all your interesting content over the years and I am glad to see many others are now appreciating your great work!

Glad you covered the khao Soi place, I saw that on my way out last time, didn’t know it was famous, great to know it’s not the real deal. (Or not as good as Daradalay or Huan Lumphun) There’s another Hang Lay place in there I didn’t get to eat at last time. I’ve had the Khao Kha moo, excellent. Also glad you had the sweetcorn som tam. I’m not a som tam fan but wanted to try the sweetcorn version for a while. Also I like how you pick each Ingredient out of the dish for us. If there’s a link to the ‘share the love fund’ I’ll stick some in so you can spread it about to the locals and show us some more awesome dishes.

    Good idea this. Sometimes you just wanna be able to get off a BTS And walk into air con and eat. The food halls you get in the shopping centres would also be interesting one. The one at terminal 21 is quite good or the food hall in MBK. When I first went to Thailand I found them more intimidating than normal street vendors as it’s always pretty busy and there ain’t much time to learn. The locals working in the city don’t get much time for their breaks and don’t need farangs struggling around them

      @@theroamingcook Anything in a Thai shopping mall is better compared to the very limited crap Thai food in America. I have eaten at about forty restaurants in the Seattle area. In two I was able to finish my meal. It was that bad. The last time it was take out I could not finish it and had to toss it in the trash. Maybe next time I will order Fried Rice and see if they can screw that up.

    Alright duchess? Bang up job again today! Was a bit apprehensive about the luxury mall concept but you pulled it off. I often have kao ka moo in other food courts for the reason you said about gaeng kiew waan, I don't know that it deteriorates much in these pots vs the street equipment? Not looking to request a video cos I know it's a bit niche, but are you able to provide a couple links to places in BKK where I could get a proper kao kluk gapi? Usually only see it in the food courts and they skimp on the gapi so much, it's criminal! Done a search on your 151 vids but don't see it, although I confess I don't have time to watch them all to double check. So if you covered it before, please just point me in the right direction and I shall feast me old peepers on it.
