Authentic Thai Street Food Done Your Way

Snapshot
"Cracking the code" of a street food world almost exclusively dominated by locals: where to go, what to order, and how to order it. In the company of a renowned street food journalist, crack the code and uncover the hidden spots. Bangkok street food features some of the best Thai food in the country. But it seems a vast majority of the visitors to Thailand stick to "safe" restaurant choices. Safe is boring. Don’t be boring.
What You Will Do
• Explore the street food of a particular area (Chinatown, Banglamphu, etc) or a particular type of street food (egg noodles, Isaan).
• Have your street food catered to dietary restrictions (vegetarian, gluten-free).
• Embrace the daredevil in you with the strangest experiences (dancing shrimp, pig's blood).
Why We Do This
I blog and write extensively on Thai street food as a freelance journalist. I have also published a book, "Bangkok's Top 50 Street Food Stalls" and am currently working on my second. After a few years researching Thai street food stalls and shophouses for my books (which are meant to help ease diners into the street food world), I am now familiar with quite a few places, particularly in Bangkok.
My interest in street food grew out of purely personal and selfish considerations -- Having moved to Thailand in 1995 after a lifetime spent in the States, I, too, felt intimidated when confronted with bare-bones noodle vendors equipped with only a couple of burners and a few slips of paper. How can I order a meal without embarrassing myself, angering the vendor or causing delays for other customers? These are questions I think every street food newcomer asks.
