I repeatedly say that this is the best SOUTHERN THAI FOOD that I've had and when I say that, I mean it's the best for ME and my personal palate. Anyone claiming to have found the best version of a dish in Bangkok has lost the plot!
Local Southern Food (ร้านช้อนทองชวนทาน อาหารใต้) is a great place to try some real deal street food style southern curries in Bangkok. The owner is from Surat Thani so this is legit food.
I had the Gaeng Kee Lek (cassia curry), the Gaeng Kua Prik Si Krong Moo (pork rib curry), Kua Khling (dry curry), Pad Gai Look Riang (stir fried chicken in curry paste with riang beans)
Small bowls will set you back 45 baht £1 / $1.35 and large bowls 60 baht - £1.35 / $1.80
Next I headed over to the specialty coffee bar Ekonomi Cafe for a crazy good 'whisky' blend. In the video, I said it tasted like rum and raisin but after a few more sips, I was getting bourbon! It's the most unique coffee blend I've ever had!
If you're in the area, I would definitely suggest that you check this place out along with Ekonomi coffee, pork leg stew at Kha Moo Bang Wa and dim sum at Hor Jia:

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!
I’ve never understood travelling to a town or city and not eating the local food. How else do you really connect with a place? Let’s get out and explore together and I guarantee you’ll find a whole different side to this wonderful country.
If you love seeing off the beaten path, non-touristy, 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!
