Look at that. Look at what's behind us. Are we in Thailand? Are we in Phuket?
You have this cool street art here. Reminds us of Penang very very much.
just like that
Aww so pretty.
What a long journey.
There is this town in Phuket that you need to see and we are going to show you why you should.
Feels like we're not in Thailand. It feels like we're back in Malaysia right now. Never expected to find this in Phuket
Walking around Phuket really makes us think that this is Phuket's gem. Yeah we
can't really say it's a hidden gem because there's a lot of Instagram spots and it definitely has the
potential for it to be very crowded. But it's not like the party atmosphere you think of when you
think of Phuket. You have this cool street art here. Reminds us of Penang very very much. Uncle making
yeah looks like he's making like an oyster omelette or this other dish that we might be showing you
pretty soon, it's also famous in Phuket. It's very cool very same style. We love it here.
Oh wow. This block really making us feel like we are
in Malaysia like we are in Penang or somewhere else. Yeah during peak
tourist time because there's a lot of people here taking photos. Because this is beautiful streets.
Look at that. Look at what's behind us. Are we in
Thailand? Are we in Phuket? These old shop houses so colorful like wow.
I swear this area is making me fall in love with Phuket just here. Like I
don't even need to see the rest of the island right now, I just I love it here.
I'm just a sucker for this kind of architecture, colorful buildings like it's it's my kind of
place. This is our third time in Bangkok it's because - I mean sorry in Thailand - third time in
Thailand. It's because you know Phuket is always is a turn off for us. Yeah it has that reputation you
know you hear Phuket like that but yeah we didn't know this place existed until a few days ago.
Exactly
Alright so we just stopped by at this cool looking ice cream shop
in the middle of Old Phuket and wow it feels so good in here because it's
also cold and it smells delicious with lots of pastries and ice cream.
That's Greg getting our ice cream
I had to rock out with the Thai flavors. Rolling the dice with this one - this miang
kham. It's like - it looks very interesting. Thai tea I know it's gonna be good
already. Oh that's good. Let's try this miang kham. It's like lemongrass lime leaf flavor.
Savory, kind of spicy too. Pair that with the Thai tea, it's like eating a meal.
How's the Thai tea? I mean what is that one? Miang kham. Ohh it's perfect Thai tea flavor.
Not too sweet. I like it. Definitely happy with this Thai pairing right here.
And mine. This is what I got. I got almond espresso and dark chocolate.
You always get dark chocolate every time. All-time favorite. All-time favorite
Dark chocolate. So dark
There's chunks of almonds in here. Nice. That's really strong coffee flavor. It's actually not
sweet at all. Really strong. I'm gonna boldly tell you it's one of the best coffee ice creams I've
ever had. I eat a lot of coffee ice cream. It's very good. Especially it really has the strong
espresso taste. I'm an espresso lover. Damn! That's bold. Almond chunks too. The flavors here have like
the old shop house buildings colors to match the name of the flavor. Oh yeah. So cool
I didn't even expect that. It's a nice detail. Oh there's the street art we just saw
Look at this. Black beer. Interesting. Rose. Vodka. Whoa.
Wow. This place. So this ice cream shop it's so delicious. So you gotta try it here. Thaivetro.
Being here in this stretch of Old Town Phuket is so different. This is the kind of night market you
get pre-Covid, but at this time it's just full of local tourists and it's amazing. It's Sunday
and people I think people have no work tomorrow because everyone's here. Maybe but
it's just a busy place to be on a Sunday night.
It's a very good combination. Too good. That pandan flavor is amazing. Pandan and coconut milk.
I love it. Could eat like 20 of these no problem.
Easy. They're so light - they're like kind of salty, but like not too sweet either.
So this one is very special because this one like passed through from generation to down to
her generation. So her aunt like back in the day worked in the palace.
So this one is like a royal dish basically. Royal snack
Appetizer for royal. Like King royal family yeah. You eat it you feel it too. You feel the quality,
you feel the oomph. Like you feed them the oomph because they are like full of herbs in there. Wow after
hearing that, I'm even more excited than I already was. Just watching her make it by hand. Very special
story. And just even smelling it, it smells healthy. I feel like I'm getting healthier just from the aroma.
It's wrapped in a betel leaf. All these ingredients - ginger, dried shrimp, shallots, lime, chilies.
There's so much going on here. So many flavors and textures. You have spicy, sweet,
sour, tangy, earthy. Crunchy texture. Peanut, shallots, chilies, lime, ginger. It's insane. I feel
like this is a really healthy snack. I could really eat a few sticks of this. Incredible.
So I just came back from a trip in Chiang Mai and when I was in Chiang Mai like the big night market
there, I don't see this kind of food. Really? It's not actually it's not like a typical street food.
Wow. It's not like general street food you can find anywhere. I grew up in Bangkok. I never
seen anybody sell this kind of food in street food - like as a street food at a
market - in the market you know. Yeah. Very very unexpected.
