Phuket Street Food

Phuket Nightlife and Street Food.

Food stalls lining the streets with all kind of colors, flavors and
smell, something for all senses.

A endless row of small sit-down restaurants around a mobile kitchen either mounted on a expanded bicycle or some pans and gas cooker to be loaded on the back of a pick up truck ready to try the next corner.

The usual Thai street food dishes are fried chicken, curry and chili with beef, chicken or pork, vegetable and all mixed with rice or noodle, aromatic basil is spread over.

If farang, means foreigners, are around the selections of street food expands to more expensive seafood, fish, crabs, prawns lay on ice.

What makes Thai Street Food food quite delicious is a unique mix of fresh herbs, spices, chilies, sugar and sauces.

But be aware, according to my own experience the change that you have a real stomach problem afterwards is 80%. Don't listen what they tell you, the problem is all this street vendors use water from the tub and water from the tub in Thailand is, as everyone will tell polluted, it wont matter if you boil or not. The other real problem is that they clean the used plates etc. in the same large pot of water, the water is not changed the whole evening since there is no running tab water around.

Hygienic is almost at zero, usually any vegetable, salad or whatever is only minimal washed.
