- New Thailand videos every Wednesday. Subscribe: / darrenb3 . Street food in Thailand: A walk around a Thai night market in Thailand. Thai street food and shopping aplenty! This market is the Ban Don Floating Market in Surat Thani Thailand. It's open every Sunday from 4pm till 10pm and is at Google Maps: goo.gl/maps/jUbuwmPhnVA2
At the food markets in Thailand you’ll find loads of fresh fruit and vegetables, as well as meats and seafood, and heaps of street food and other authentic Thai dishes. They’re awesome for shopping when you visit Thailand and great places for buying and eating authentic Thai cuisine.
The city of Surat Thani is a great place to visit if you want to get off the tourist track. It's still very authentic and you won't find many tourists there, but there is lots of great food and cheap shopping.

The Thai food markets in Thailand are also a great place to get an insight into Thai culture while you travel in Thailand. You can try traditional Thai street foods, learn Thai recipes and cooking, as well as eat some of the best Thai dishes in Thailand. You'll see the people cooking the food right in front of you. And best of all, the food is cheap, often much cheaper than eating in a Thai restaurant. Eating at markets is a good way to save money on your Thailand holidays.
Make sure you check out some Thai food markets on your trip to Thailand, and be sure to sample some of the amazing Thai street food that's available in Thailand! If you want to try some of the best food in the world be sure to visit Thailand!
Subscribe to my channel for more videos on what to do in Thailand and what to eat in Thailand. I post a new Thailand video every Wednesday, and often on other days too, about Thailand: places to see, things to do, tours, Thai food, Thailand markets, Thai festivals & culture, street food, Thai recipes, eating Thai food, hotels, resorts, villas, Thai restaurants, Thailand holidays, tourism, accommodation & Thailand travel, including Phuket, Ao Nang, Krabi and other Thailand destinations.
Krabi is about 2-3 hours from Phuket by land or sea, and has world class accommodation standards comparable to what you find in Phuket hotels and resorts, but in a more relaxed environment.
If you're looking into Thailand Hotels have a look at hotels and resorts in Krabi. The islands and beaches of Krabi are famous for Thailand holidays, the movie The Beach was filmed on Krabi's Koh Phi Phi Island.

Love your food videos better than any others covering Thailand so please keep them coming. The expression on your wife's face when she ate the sour sausage was priceless. Reminded me of years ago giving my son his first dill pickle. lol.
+laserguy Thanks a lot, glad you're enjoying the vids. Yes, she's not a big fan of sour stuff :)
Fab vid. Loved the look on your wife's face when she ate the sour sausage. Your little boy seems to growing up so quickly. What a fantastic market it was so pretty next to the river. Thanks again for your hard work.
+Heidi Lock Thanks a lot! Yes, her expression was golden :) and yes, he is growing up very quickly! It was a great market! As you said it was really pretty and there was a great selection of food. I'll definitely be back! Thanks for watching and commenting.
Great to see these videos here. Nice work! These videos take me back to Thailand, I loved the ambiance, smells of different spices and the people there. The first time in Bangkok it came as a shock, it was overwhelming. Now I absolutely love it. Cheers from The Netherlands!
+Jan Jakob Bouma Thanks a lot, I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. Yes, Thailand is very different to western countries, but it is a great place to visit. I love living here! Thanks for watching and commenting!

That made me hungry! Thanks for explaining what they are, I always learn something different every time I watch your videos. I'm in Saudi at the moment and missing Thai street food like mad. Another excellent video :)
Can't wait to get back in February.

Thumbs up my friend. I really enjoy your videos. Happy Thanksgiving to your family and beautiful Thailand.
+risquecat Thanks a lot, I'm glad you're enjoying the videos. Happy Thanksgiving back to you and your family.
Hey Darren did you get a new camera? This video was so crisp and clean,very HD! I think this is my favorite video of yours!
I love seeing your family! I really like that you tell us how much things cost! All that wonderful looking food is so much cheaper than here in America! Gosh I want to go there so badddddddd lol! I look forward to your video every week!
+Colleen Kubricht Thanks, I'm really glad you enjoyed the video so much, but no, it's the same camera. Yes, the food here is very well priced, which I'm very grateful for ;). Thailand is a great country to visit, it's a beautiful place with friendly people and as you can see, the food is amazing! Thanks for watching and commenting.
It's 5:56 am and now I am STARVING lol....Aorns mushroom soup yum...and the take out for you and Ananda ...ewww....Do they ever do fried onion rings like they did the mushrooms? Literally cut the onions into rings, batter and fry. YUM..cut the rings thick though, not skinny...Thanks Darren...another great one....
Hahaha. Yes, thick-cut onion rings are reasonably common here, Ananda loves them! Glad you enjoyed the video :)
Just fascinating! The choices of what to eat make my head spin! I really like your comments about the different types of foods--makes me want to try damn near everything. When I was in Izmir, Turkey in 1975 there were open markets and some kinds of street food....but nothing at all like Thailand. Really good video--thanks!
+sped17373 Yes, there are certainly lots of choices for food here in Thailand, and they taste amazing usually! I'm glad you enjoyed the video, thanks for commenting!
Oh wow everything looked sooo good Darren! It's so inexpensive, it would be extremely expensive here to eat like that!
+MsDreamcakes Yes, there were lots of tasty foods there, it was a great market! And yes, it is pretty affordable for most, especially if you're from overseas. A lot of Thai people still earn 300 baht per day ($8.37 US at the current exchange rate), if you're earning that, what we bought there was worth about a day's work.
darrenb3 Oh my gosh! That is crazy to us to think people can survive on so little. Everything must be very inexpensive if they can survive on so little? Gosh that wouldn't buy the food for one home cooked meal here much less pay any household bills or car payments or mortgage. Wow! Our water bill alone is 100.00 per month. Now I'm curious about what stuff like that costs there! I know you are a teacher there, how does the salary for that compare to what you would earn back home in Australia?
+MsDreamcakes Yes, in general most things are inexpensive here. Many people do live hand to mouth though, as when you're earning that kind of money you can't save a lot. Cars are the same price here as anywhere else, hence the popularity of motor scooters. Similarly many electrical items like phones, computers, TVs, etc are the same price as in other countries. A typical 2 bedroom, 2 story house, on 100 square metres of land in my area would cost you about $70,000 US. Many things are much cheaper, my water bill is about $5 US per month. My power bill is about $23 per month. Labor is also much cheaper. There is no comparison between earning here vs earning in Australia, at the current exchange rate I earn about $780 US per month, in my second year in the job, and after a pay rise/bonus for my performance last year. I'm probably not going to be holidaying in the US any time soon, lucky I like it here :)
love the videos. cant wait to be back in thailand in january :)
+WhaleBomb Thanks! Not long till January! :)
👍👍👍👍👍👍
HI can you give me the recipe to the prawn cakes I would love to make then. Thank you
man, the mushroom soup?!... I love the mellow atmosphere around those markets! of course, Darren, as always a few questions please? (by the way, thank you for the bread explanation). is the "floating market" term basically used as a marketing tool, or is there a planned purpose, and secondly, I don't notice cheeses? is there a reason? thanks, as always, a very educational vid. I love them! Chris.
+Michigan Mister Yes, I love the atmosphere of the markets here too .. I seem to end up at a market nearly every day. I'm not really sure about the "floating market" term. It may come from long ago when the market was a true floating market, with vendors selling everything from boats. The history of the market may go back that far, I don't know. There are floating markets like that still in Thailand, some are for tourists, but I believe there are genuine ones too. This area isn't touristy at all, so I doubt that it's name is for marketing. Like bread, cheese isn't really a traditional Thai food and most of my Thai friends don't seem to like cheese, except on pizza. It is available in all the supermarkets though and one of the types of sausages sold everywhere here does have a melted cheese centre. I enjoy eating that type of sausage, but it seems that it's mainly popular with kids. Glad you're enjoying the vids!
;)
Great video Darren,
question for you: i see all the vendors are wearing same type of shirt what is the reason.
thanks
+Muki M.K. Thanks! I don't know for sure, but I think the shirts are probably the market management's way of ensuring everyone dresses appropriately. It's probably also good advertising for the market.
MATE YOU ARE MAKING ME WANT TO EAT AND I CAN ONLY HAVE SOUP LOL
Hahaha. You'll have to book a ticket to Thailand, there's plenty of great food here!
👍🐡🐡🐡🐡Yum😄
Awesome shirts - where can I get one?
+skippy At that market in Surat Thani ;)
ร้านส้มตำสากน่ากลัวมาก😂😂
