"To be fortunate enough to visit Thailand--to eat in Thailand--is a
deep dive into a rich, many-textured, very old culture of flavors and
colors ranging far beyond the familiar spectrum." --Anthony Bourdain
Thailand is known for its incredible street food and specialty stalls.
With the help of this book, visitors can experience the very best of
streetside dining.

great Thai street food. By eating her way across the country, from
Phuket in the south to Chiang Mai in the north, she ensures all
travelers will have a tasty, authentic experience.

and logistic help in locating the best street food stalls, including:
- An introduction to and pronunciation guide for common ingredients and
dishes
- Directions to each location
- Street maps for each area
- Serving options

This edition has been updated and revised, and includes 11 new street
stall recommendations.
