Today I'm joined by @joparilla as we head into the big bad city of Bangkok, in Asok to be precise, to see if we can find cheap, authentic Thai food in Bangkok's Sukhumvit.
The best place to find cheap food is by a University, so we've headed down to Srinakharinwirot University (มหาวิทยาลัยศรีนครินทรวิโรฒ ประสานมิตร) to try the best Thai fried chicken shop in Bangkok (in our humble opinions). We also tried some shrimp paste rice and a mataba at the SWU Market.

My name’s Gary and I’ve been living in Bangkok for the past five plus years and travelling Thailand for over ten. I’m obsessed with Thai street food and it’s that obsession that led me to start this YouTube channel. I want to share my favourite hidden spots in Bangkok and the rest of Thailand so you can fall in love with authentic, local Thai food as much as I have!
If you love seeing off the beaten path, nontouristy, local life and authentic local life in Bangkok and Thailand then this is the channel for you. If go go bars on the Sukhumvit Road are more your thing (I’m not judging) then maybe not!
