Delicious Stir Fry Dishes at Ja Jaroenchai (ร้าน จ.เจริญชัย) - Chiang Rai, Thailand
Vložit

- I have a couple favorite restaurants in Chiang Rai, one of them is Ja Jaroenchai (ร้าน จ.เจริญชัย) - a popular place that serves a menu mostly of Thai Chinese stir fry dishes. More details here: www.eatingthaifood.com/2014/11...
Ja Jaroenchai (ร้าน จ.เจริญชัย) is one of the most busy restaurants in all of Chiang Rai, every night, and especially on the weekends, they absolutely fill up with customers, ready to feast. The restaurant mostly serves a menu of Thai Chinese dishes, many of which are stir fried, but they do also have a selection of prepared dishes stashed in the front cabinet of dishes like boiled chicken, braised duck, and roasted meats. During the time I spent in Chiang Rai, this was a restaurant I kept coming back to, just to enjoy their wonderful home-comforting style food.
For this food video, I started off with a plate of a dishes known in Thai as pad yod on tandawan moo krob (ผัดยอดอ่อนทานตะวันหมูกรอบ), or stir fried sunflower sprouts with crispy pork belly. Sunflower sprouts are not all that common in Thai cuisine, especially at restaurants, though you probably can find them at health food stores - so that’s why I was so happy to see them on the menu. The dish was excellent, stir fried with just the right amount of seasoning, red Thai chilies, and finally a few pieces of crispy pork belly to really enhance the flavor.
Easily the most well known dish at Ja Jaroenchai (ร้าน จ.เจริญชัย) is pad makua sawuy (ผัดมะเขือเสวย), the dish that every table that eats there orders - at least I think so, and they should. The dish was basically a simple plate of eggplant stir fried with minced pork, chillies and basil, and the reason it was so good is that it was fried so fresh, served piping hot, and they really got the balance of seasoning - salty, sweet, spicy - down to perfection. I loved every bite of it, and if you ever go to Ja Jaroenchai (ร้าน จ.เจริญชัย) you should definitely order it too.
Next up on our menu, we ordered gai ban tom sab (ไก่บ้านต้มสับ), Chinese style boiled chicken. The chicken, although it looked a little on the scrawny side (it was a breed of chicken that’s skinnier and more like a free range chicken), it has some incredible flavor - not the type of succulent juicy meat - but more like slightly chewy, full of chicken flavor style of chicken. It was served with a fermented soybean sauce on the side, which was a little on the salty side, but nevertheless tasted wonderful.
Finally, to wrap up our meal this time around at Ja Jaroenchai (ร้าน จ.เจริญชัย) we ordered steamed egg (ไข่ตุ๋น), just a simple bowl of egg beat up with some minced pork and shrimp, and then steamed into a fluffy cake. It was juicy and again, just like everything else, it was seasoned perfectly.
There are a number of wonderful restaurants in Chiang Rai, and I think Ja Jaroenchai (ร้าน จ.เจริญชัย) is one of the best if you’re looking for stir fried foods.

Thank you Boyao Tan
My mom made a similar dish like this. But heavily based with minced pork, pieces of left over bread and a few eggs to make it light and fluffy.
Mark, were you able to converse with your grandmother in Chinese? I bet her cooking was phenomenal.
roomforthefiiixins No, I never learned any Chinese unfortunately. She was a good cook, but actually my Grandfather, was really the best cook - he was a Chinese chef in Hawaii for many years.
Thanks for the information on your weight control. I will definitely give what you said a try. I think a lot of people would love to know how you control your weight in detail. This would be a great book for you to write! I would definitely be one of the first customers!
Your face looks so satisfied every time you taste the food. omg I wish I could fly there and try that food xD
Thank you very much pokemon17007
So nice! Today i saw u on Nguyen Dinh Chieu street in VietNam. U look so great in green shirt
thu thảo nguyễn Hi Thu, great to hear that, you should have stopped me! Are you from Saigon?
Mark Wiens yeah im living in saigon.
you haven't changed much in 3 years mark...
Great video like always Mark! You make EVERY dish you feature look so good! How do you get to eat all that amazing food and still keep the weight off?
Thank you Jon Watanabe. I think mostly it's a combination of eating balance and keeping very active and doing exercise. But I also try to eat healthy much of the time but eating lots of fruit and vegetables, and staying away from sweets and packaged snacks.
I would lie to try one day. Love to take my son there
I love watching you eat Mark! Haha even it always makes me drool... i wanna try the sunflower sprout, it looks interesting.. Hope you can go here in the Philippines. We have so much to offer! We have so many mouth watering delicacies here. :-)
Thank you very much Valerie De Mesa. I would love to come back to the Philippines. What part are you from?
Mark Wiens I'm from Rizal Province. The famous delicacy here in Rizal is rice cakes.
good video👍💖
You make me Hungry Mark
Thanks for watching Segar Vaitty
liked the vid before watching ;D
Thank you *****
Good video!
Thank you!
I'm craving steam egg now. Like you, I associate this dish with my Popo. (I've got a feeling that you might be of Teochew chinese descent).
The one you ate 'looks' a little dry.
I do like the Hong Kong version where they drizzle a little soy sauce, sesame oil and a light pinch of white pepper on top.
Great to hear that leenee loo, my Popo is from the countryside near Guangzhou, but yah, this version was a little different than what I usually ate growing up - this was more beat up I think - whereas the one I grew up eating was a little more silky smooth - both delicious. Does this version look Teochew?
Please tell me if you did this already, but, I'd love to see am most loved dishes flash back video
Tacha Haven't done that yet, that's a good idea.
Mark, please share your grandma's steamed egg recipe.
MsLansones Ok, I'm going to try to get the recipe from her. It is very simple though, I think something like this one: www.mummyicancook.com/2011/11/steamed-eggs-chinese-savoury-custard.html but with a little minced pork or dry shrimp added.
Thank you so much Mark! :)))
Im chinese so i eat this quite a lot
Great to hear that carlos liu
Mark, we need more appearance of Ying or w.e. haha
come to singapore xD try some good foods here ^^
Hi Nikkeh PlaysMC, I'm hoping to visit Singapore soon!
You must have awesome metabolism...all you do is eat! :)
Hey Jason Sevigny, yes, but I also try to do plenty of exercise and keep active.
the yummy lvl is over 9k lol
Haha, thanks LiangHuBBB, it definitely was my kind of food.
LiangHuBBB and today 74 thousand
Great food. Are those also available in Bangkok too? Where or what kind of restaurants to look at to find such dishes like pad yod on? Is there any tip you can give us on how to find interesting dishes?
Hi protdeaf, yes, there are many similar restaurants like this in Bangkok, sort of Chinese Thai style, and many of them will serve "khao tom" which is rice porridge along with the dishes too. As for dishes, they will normally have a menu, or alternatively, often many restaurants like this will have all the ingredients of what is available - all meats, seafood, vegetables - all laid out and you can actually just go up and choose what you want to eat, and they will stir fry it up.
Mark Wiens Hey Mark, thank you very much for all the info. Cheers.
Fantastic , good job Mark :)
Thank you y r
U should state if the food price is for one or two persons..
Hey Mark...do the sunflower sprouts have any "Sunflower seed" flavor, or are they pretty much neutral like normal bean sproute?
tortaboy they had no seed flavor, more like bean sprouts just much chewier and crisper.
Were you raised in Thailand? Your pronunciation of the Thai names sounds pretty authentic.
butterbean818 No, didn't grow up in Thailand, but my wife is Thai, so she's teaching me, and then just lots of practice.
Marck Weins not very good
Tequila&Tea baby shark
Do you live there now? Recently all vids are from foo in Thailand
Recently ? lol
Xcelestial Neon My wife and I are based in Thailand, but we still travel every couple of months. New videos of Vietnam coming soon.
Back when Mark was not self conscious about the Wieny Head Roll haha
The sunflower sprouts look a lot like snowpea sprouts. Are they similar in taste or texture? I need to stop watching these before bed haha
linited I'm not sure if I've ever had snowpea sprouts. These sprouts were a little chewy, but I really liked them, they had a wonderful crispness and freshness.
snowpea sprouts look pretty much exactly like those ones. But they normally taste pretty much like snowpeas. I am so keen to try that dish though.
it's the Wide mouth, Big eyes dude again( Mark Wiens) when he put the food in his Mouth..
Yeah egg plant
subs your video :D
Thank you Juliawan Wijaya
"...looks like a spoon and fork..." 😂😂😂
Only around $8 for that entire meal? Damn man that's one hell of a good price
BaachiJoeV5 Yes, good deal for good quality food.
I would say to all of marks viewers and subs is that he should be impartial with his reviewed and now that he is getting sponsored for more money and travels we want him to be fair about the food .
Thanks Mark
lol i like when u eat something and goo........ ummmm O...O 555+
Is there any type of food you don't like mark ?
Hi Tony Montana, there's really not much I don't like, but I'm not a huge fan of things that are too oily or too greasy.
yeah im not a big fan of greasy food either!
it looks so yummy! =) i like your videos very much! Mark Wiens 1000 bits for you! *****
Mark.. when u visit vietnam.. stop by SAI GON.. not HA NOI ok ..
i love to support your video everyday and i hope you will be the next ultimate food vloger .
