Vložit
- čas přidán 7. 09. 2024
- Raan Jay Fai is a shophouse eatery in Bangkok, which was awarded one Michelin-star in 2017 in the first Michelin Guide to Thailand. Her real name is Supinya Junsuta, but she's always referred to by her nickname, Jay Fai, which means Sister Mole. Known for sporting some iconically oversized ski goggles and always wearing ruby red lipstick, Jay Fai cooks all the food herself with only minor assistance. World-acclaimed chef Gaggan Anand is a fan and a regular guest here, and was our guide for this visit.

Hello! Great Video! Congratulations!

Good evening! Good week! Hugs . . #dgtudo
DG Tudo thanks :)
Like watching a choreographed dance!
She's amazing, and yeah, she got it down to an art form.
I have been eating there 4 times. Too expensive to be in Thailand. but I pay the same amount in Norway for worse food. so i guess i should not complain too much. and the food is really good.
I agree. Too expensive for Thailand, but too delicious not to go there a few times :)
0:30 he is a michelin star chef
Yeah, Gaggan took us out for this meal in Bangkok.
Hi Anders!!
Did you get a chance to taste the dish yourself?? If so how was it??
Do you consider it overrated??
Yes, that's me eating the big prawn towards the end. I only film meals I eat myself ;) The lunch was great. If it is worth the price is another question. It is very expensive for a Thai meal. I would definitely go back, though.
Foodie Stories by Anders Husa good to know mate..
Spotted Gaggan Anand @ 0:30
Yes, he is several places in the video as he was our dining companion :)
Does anyone know where to get these grills?
No clue, looks almost home made.
Como diablos le sale ese omelet perfecto sin aceite wow
I’m going to try and visit next month on my honeymoon. Would you recommend booking in advance?
areenvmusic booking in advance is a must. You find the phone number / e-mail in my article and in the video :)
@@helopo123 cheers!
I emailed last month, they said fully book until October:-(
Check out that vascularity ...
Hi, wath is the name of this song? Thank you

Hi Gaggan!
I thought Jay Fai was aunty mole? Not sister mole?
I've seen both translations. In the end, it means roughly the same, I think :)
@@andersandkaitlin I can confirm, "Jay" is the Thai-Chinese (Teochew) word for elder sister.
@@tyler-path Cool!
@@tyler-path Thank you! I think I heard incorrectly from other videos I saw on her :)
confirm elder sister . i'm from thailand.
is her restaurant near to thip samai?
Closed two weeks ago
Permanently?
@@andersandkaitlin it's open normally
they closed every Sunday/Monday
SkyWalkzauy ok, good!
Is the omelette really that good? It just looks like a standard fried egg with crab meat?
It's very good. The crab meat is very good qualiy an she manages to pack a BUNCH of it in the omelette, so the ratio of egg to crab is ridiculous. She also cooks the eggs in a way that they're not too dry and also not oily despite being deep-fried basically.
does the teardrop tattoo signify he's a murderer?
It's a candle light
not sure if i want to eat or if i want to dance
Because of the music or her moves? :D
kjempe bra!!!
Miss frog ?
*What?*
1.000 THB ??? An omelette??? In Bangkok??? It is too expensive for Europe as well... 27€ eggs with crab???
Massi Cheshire Cat Lateralus yup. Tasty, though.
Imagine the great quality and quantity of food that you can eat in Thailand with 1000THB...
Worth it. And no it’s not too expensive for a Michelin star menu item anywhere on the planet.
@@thecat2587 that is true, although expensive for Bangkok street food :)
@@andersandkaitlin Oh absolutely. When you can pay 20p for a nice snack then anything over £5 for food seems like a bit too much. But for a michelin starred meal, from an overworked but incredible woman, it's worth it. Was a pleasure to visit and meet her family and look forward to one more go!
Kata bang radit gak istimewa 😂
Can we also give some Michelin stars to McDonald's plz?
It's called Tripadvisor.
I could accept that her food is great. I can't help but wonder though:
Is the Michelin institution actually going down the drain...? Some of the greatest chefs have also started talking about that openly lately. I know that 1 star has to do only with food, yet I would expect a restaurant to also have some "basic decency standards" in regards to ambience and cleanliness... I mean, look at what's going on, on the floor and around her, as well as inside the "dinning room". I bet the local insect are having a "one Michelin star meal" every day...
I won't even bother commenting on the pricing...especially in relation to the establishment as a whole.
Although I haven't eaten there, I have dined in many restaurants around the world, and also worked in many, which were proper restaurants and their food was amazing! Still they had/have no stars. Furthermore, Michelin won't even go to S. American countries (if I recall correctly), where some of the best restaurants in the world exist, yet they have the time and the resources to visit all these little (and pardon my language) nasty little restaurants in Asia, and give stars like candy...
It seems to me, and I feel that I am not the only one, that Michelin is promoting a "trend" in SE Asia, while the restaurants awarded don't have the necessary infrastructure to support their "stars". Let's not forget, that Asia is a huge part of this world, and as such, an enourmous amount of money and profit is at stake...
Thanks for your input! This is a big discussion for CZcams, but I'll comment a few things. I don't think Michelin is going down the drain, but they've had to change their business model. New guides are now sponsored by local tourism offices and big brands. There is no other way to finance it. Can they still be as impartial and unbiased as before? Perhaps not. Like everyone else, they have to make it to the news to get some good PR For their brand. Giving stars to street food stalls might have been one such PR trick. As for Jay Fai, the hygiene of the place was more than decent. A kitchen is always a bit messy. Her food is great, but probably not worth the price. Especially not for locals.
@@andersandkaitlin thank you for replying! Keep up the good work!
@@MrHousetronic Thanks!
@@andersandkaitlin just for the record, and in regards to my previous comment: I looked into it, and the Michelin guide visits only one S. American country, and that is Brazil.
MrHousetronic yeah, they do actually visit a surprisingly small amount of countries / cities. People tend to think they are everywhere, but it’s very limited.
She's pretty famous how much for her drunken noodle?
They're not that bad. Don't know the current price, this was early 2018.
She didnt wear any glove to grab the noodle ..
Muhammad Hafizan chefs don’t wear gloves
Then how can you enjoy sushi from barehand chefs?
Looks incredibly unhealthy! All that cooking fat, eggs, & crab. Better not have a cholesterol issuse, b/c you will after, for sure! 😱
Nah, it's fine for an omelette, won't kill you. ;)
@@andersandkaitlin I'll pass on that, thanks. 😃
@@lajollajoe fair enough. :)
Eat shit if you want healthy. Go fuck yourself.
$30 US dollar omlet. In SE Asian? Seems pretty oily. When the famous tatooed yuppie chefs start to fawn over deep fried eggs, I stop fawning over the famous yuppie chefs.
Rudy Gallus yep, it’s costly!
It isn’t oily at all. That’s the good thing, you push down on that omelette & no oil escapes from it. It isn’t too expensive if you take supply & demand - the queues are legendary and the hype richly deserved.
@@thecat2587 Egg-xactly! :P
$35 for an Omelette, that’s over rated.
It's expensive, yes.
dirty food
A lil' dirt never hurt nobody.
