when you think of thailand what is the first thing that pops into your mind maybe it's all the crazy
wires on the streets the crazy motorbikes maybe it's the tropical beaches or it's the never-ending
options of delicious thai food so today we are going to take you to one of the markets that we
have found here in chiang mai we are going to show you some of the most delicious thai food
that we can find at the night markets we're also going to show you what it's like these days so get
your popcorn get your snacks ready because by the end of this video you're gonna be really hungry
so we have traveled about 20 minutes out the city center of chiang mai to a place called kad farang
village so in thai people use the word for rung to explain what a foreigner is the word for rung
directly translates to white guava which is hilarious but it's not an offensive term it's just
what people use to talk about a foreigner or if people need to help a foreigner for anything this
farang village kind of has foreign restaurants jobs foreign outlets and supermarkets so every
sunday they also have a pop-up market which is the reason why we have come here today so we're gonna
go and see what food there is they also call this center cad farang because there are actually many
foreign residents who live around this area and they are a lot of international schools as well
so this is the perfect shopping center for the foreigner they have lots of foreign outlets as
we said like mcdonald's dunkin donuts starbucks everything like that and the starbucks here is
pretty cool it looks like a temple on the outside but it's actually a starbucks on the inside so
that's cool you can also go and get your haircuts in this little van which is so cool the barber car
you should get a haircut here this is so cool we just wanted to show you a little bit of what
the supermarket looks like this is one of the most expensive supermarkets here in thailand
it's not really like the big c or the tesco it's just a little bit more pricey you can
get apples for like 300 baht and everything here is like pretty much imported so you're probably
wondering why we're in the supermarket right now so in thailand if you draw some money and you have
say a thousand baht note or a 500 baht note it's sometimes a little bit rude um or not customary to
pay for something at the market with such a big note so we've actually just come to the
supermarket now just so we can break the thousand or the 500 part note it's just a bit more polite
to pay with smaller smaller coins and smaller notes as you can see behind me they've already
set up all these sort of tents and gazebos and it is so busy and absolutely buzzing right now with
people coming in to see this market so we're gonna go inside now and maybe see some good food to try
that looks so good i want to try that i don't know what it is but i want to try it
so it's super busy here at the moment there are so much food i mean you could pick anything there's
sushi there's seafood there's fruit fruit shakes fruit smoothies everything you can
think of and look how busy it is there's some sushi as well oh this looks so good
everything looks really delicious this place is very busy
lots of people are buying some desserts and then there's some fresh fruit vegetables there's some
ramen korean snacks lots of snacks is that dried vegetables
dry fruits and vegetables and there's some ramen some french fries wow everything looks good
so buzzing right now yeah and there's just so many unique things that you don't see anywhere
else in the world it's just so different this is why we love thailand yes and this is one of the
only night markets that are open right now because so many of them have been closed of course due to
the pandemic so it's nice to see people out and about eating good delicious street food
okay
that looks really delicious
we've gone straight for the dessert and we can't skip the coconut dessert
we like to have the spicy sauce this is a deep fried corn and deep fried taro so that looks
really good and she even cuts it up for you so it's in like bite sizes and then you can dip it in
a spicy sauce which is gonna be so delicious okay so we found a little place to sit down because
this is a night market there aren't too many places to sit so we're actually like sitting on
the stairs and we about to try all the delicious food that we've just bought we bought some gaiosa
some deep fried fish and then we bought some deep fried corn and taro i think we should start with
the gayo we have had goes before but we've never actually bought it from a market yes so it looked
too good it just looked too good we've tried it so many times but it looks so good we had to buy
it this is the pork cayosa and then it's got a little bit of fried garlic with the spicy sauce
that devin's opening up that looks quite dangerous very dangerous this wow just look at this so we're
going to dip it in the little sauce and then we're going to let you know what it tastes like okay
okay ready
wow i love gaozon kaios is always a go-to it's delicious i give it a nine out of ten because
it's a little bit cold and i would like my gayosa really hot and fresh you can never go wrong it's
not my favorite food but it's just one of the easy things that you know every time you buy it
it's going to be good next up is deep fried fish cakes and they just just
made right now and she warned us it was a little bit spicy and they look so good though it was
50 baht for just eight of these little fish cakes so i'm gonna go for it take the biz bite
it's not spicy it doesn't taste like fish at all it actually tastes a little bit like the saiua
like the northern style sausage because it's got red chili it's got garlic it's got spring onion
it's absolutely delicious i'm really surprised because i don't really like fish cakes yes at
all but this the thai style yeah the thai style fish cake i really like it and it's spicy but not
too spicy i'll maybe give this a seven out of ten i totally agree i'm gonna give it a seven as well
i was very surprised with the taste but i'm i'm in a good way this is every foreigners struggle
to try and get this little guy off your source or off your packet or whatever they they just
tie it so tightly that you can never ever get it off oh oh wait i think i got it
so if you've come to thailand you will know that they packet almost everything and they always
have it with an elastic band yeah so they have a special technique so for foreigners just like
us it is always a challenge to get it off next up on the list is the corn and taro that's been deep
fried and if i if i smell it it literally smells like cornbread yes give it to the camera to smell
if you can smell it it smells like cornbread it's like yeah yeah the taro i have been mistaken
in the past that's like i thought it was like sweet potato but it's not it's taro it's just
taro yeah here's your stick and then we're gonna dip it in the little spicy sauce that we have
like peanut and sweet chili okay so dip it right in there yes i'm going to dip my little corn
cornbread in oh my god the corn the corn is better no the taro is better
the sauce wasn't spicy at all it was a little bit of like a sweet chili and a peanut sauce so
it goes so well with the corn it's kind of like a corn dessert actually like a cornbread sweet
yeah it was very sweet and what was the taro like oh tara was so good it just tasted like a
dessert more like a cake than anything else it was more of like a cake so i'm glad we ate that third
next up we're going to try our little coconut dessert so i think it's just made from coconut
and condensed milk and then it's fried on a little like hot plate so it's a bit it's a bit
sticky they're all sticking together so i'm gonna have to break them apart this is what our little
coconut snack looks like let's let's try this let's try it really sticky but it's more
like coconut flesh so you can taste a lot of like the thick coconut flesh very sweet i love
it though so i love anything coconut this is my favorite favorite coconut snack and i'm so
glad there's a lot of them we've got a lot left so last on our list of treats is this little dessert
and i think she said it was made from soy beans smells like it's got a like a bit of caramelized
syrup on top the texture of it is quite like soft and squishy like a cake kind of like a cake
do you want to take a bite okay should i take a bite first i feel like it's gonna spill all
over good not good it's different it's not what i expected it's like like liquidy on the inside
it definitely tastes like soy beans it's sweet but not not as sweet as the coconut but take a small
your face made me know because i wasn't expecting it to be liquidy on the inside it just like kind
of poured out oh that's pouring out all over your hand all the liquid is coming out that is strange
i like it but it's strange yeah it's a little bit strange it wasn't what i expected very unexpected
that was the strangest i'm gonna have to give that like a maybe five out of ten that's a five
yeah all of the things we have tried have been extremely delicious somewhat surprising but
really really cheap the soybean and the coconut dessert was 40 baht so 20 baht each the corn and
taro combo was 50 baht the deep fried fish was 50 baht and the gaiosa was the most expensive at 70
baht that is what we love about the night markets you can find absolutely anything and everything
and be extremely full in in a matter of a few snacks that's so cheap chiangmai is known for the
vast variety of night markets but of course these days they are a little bit hard to come by because
most of them are closed so we were very lucky to find this one and we will put the link to
this place in the description below so if you're ever in chiang mai please come and check it out
