senlek noodles this looks absolutely incredible this this squid looks so good i actually forgot
to mention there is actually pork mince in this as well this is a proper tom yum
right so i'm going to try the soup just with a bit of pork mince just to start off
oh my god all right so hold on
so he asked me how i wanted my my soup i want it sour do i want it
well i said i like it i think i said i like it sour and salty but i might
have just said i like it sour and i don't like it sweet and this has come super sour
very very spicy which i asked for which i actually love i'm gonna try one of the pork balls the mud
perfect bouncy
bouncy as the name suggests all right next up i want to try this
squid i think i'm just gonna have to bite into this so just the squid stuffed with pork
tell you what this reminds me of this reminds me of
this reminds me of hoi an in
vietnam because this is what i was eating in hoi an stuffed squid with pork
so we've got minced fatty pork seems to be seasoned with fish sauce and a bit of pepper
stuffed squid stuffed inside the squid inside like a baby squid shoe um and i was worried
this was gonna be really really rubbery but it's nice it's actually cooked perfectly
um
tough crowd every single scoop is going to have loads and loads of peanuts loads of chili loads of
fatty pork mince bean sprouts spring onions and coriander so that every bite is literally like
a flavor explosion it's not often that i don't need to add anything to a soup this is absolutely
incredible so we've got a couple of fats juicy prawns as well just gonna pull that head off
yeah that's good stuff
all right
the name laplayer according to this sign up here relates to some like a secret
mountain people this is like an ancient just secret or ancient um like an ancient recipe
from some people that lived in the mountain lam obviously means which means delicious in
the north so this is an ancient secret recipe um written in folklore and it is absolutely
delicious now is there any reason why you'd be in chonburi town probably not but if you're on the
way to pattaya on the way back from patia bang sin si lacha which we just did a couple of videos at
this is well worth a little detour we're actually not far from the grand canyon which is like a
tourist attraction here which is like a big sort of as that canyon basically as the name suggests
so that's about 10 minutes away from here there's also this massive bridge we're just about to go
up now that goes all the way around the seafront so i'm going to show you that in a sec all right
and the owner uh noon number one has just told me that they only use fresh seafood so they've
sold 50 of the stuffed squid today and then they're finished so when they run out of seafood
they've run out of seafood and it all comes from chombre all the seafood comes in fresh every day
than i do okay so bottom line fantastic noodles fantastic tom yum also out of pacopal which
was pretty good helen had a noodle soup was great finney would you want to do soup nice
