Pattaya - Searching for Khao Soi

  • Up until a few weeks ago I'd never heard of a northern Thai curry dish called Khao Soi, which is mainly eaten in the north. It is also eaten in Laos and Myanmar and possibly originates in Burma. Virtually impossible to find in Pattaya but we are on a wild goose chase in search of Khao Soi.

    Look for the Northern Thai Curry called Hang Lae ฮังเล . If you recall I mentioned it to you in the car on the way back from the Skydive. It’s a pork curry with ginger, not very spicy but delicious. I have found at least one place in Pattaya that offers it but I won’t spoil your search unless you ask me to.

    I don't like the sound editing.
    - Music too loud sometimes, voices not loud enough.
    - Music at all in some passages seems random and just distracting.
    - The voices sometimes much stronger on one side.
    - Music choices seem questionable to my taste.
    All these things seem ok for me in B-Roll or visual videos, but I think are not good in video parts where people talk.

      ​@@NDTViThailand I can not say exactly what it is, but as example the part from 1:25 your voice quality changes every few seconds. Now, watching it again, I may have an explanation. The voice of your friend does not have the problem. Maybe everytime your voice comes to close to his microphone, your voice ends up on both audio tracks, and in that case you hear that in the change of audio. Just a theorie. His voice does not end on your audio, or at least less. Additionally your voice seems little bit quieter than that of your friend.
