Gastro-Tourism, Food in Asia and Eating in Southeast Asia. Street Food Fanatic Allan Wilson eats through Favourite Foods in Bangkok, Thailand and Beyond.
The best souvenirs for me are rarely cheap trinkets from travel and instead are the skills acquired along the way. As these are the souvenirs that just keep on giving. And as a Thai food-obsessed traveller, this comes mostly with cooking classes, where I have picked up pretty much invaluable recipes through the years and […]

For me, the best souvenirs are rarely the cheap trinkets from travel, but the skills acquired along the way. As these are the souvenirs that just keep on giving. And as someone who travels almost solely for food, this means the techniques and recipes I’ve picked up along the way are pretty much invaluable. Including

I never quite realised just how popular Asian Street food is until this collab, where in mere hours I already had 50 plus entries from travellers and bloggers from all across the globe. And while I obviously have a passion for writing about street food and Asia, I can say it was much more enjoyable

It feels that I have exhausted the world of Thai street food in Thailand these days, which is understandable given it was the main focus of this site for a good three years. So Thai Street Food is something I’ve not really revisited in a while, however it will always be a huge part of

This year I was honoured with an invite to ‘Asia’s 50 Best Restaurants’ award ceremony held in Macau, a ceremony which is a bit like the ‘Oscars’ of food to me, or maybe the ‘Asian Films Awards’ given its regional reach. But I will infinitely be more exciting for Asian food, and I’m sure the

Isaan sausages or sausages as they’re called in Isaan, (Saigrok Isaan ไส้กรอกอีสาน in Thai) are easily one of my most munched street foods of all time. This is partly due to their deliciousness, but also because they are found all over Bangkok and Thailand, and they are just so easy to eat on the go. However Isaan

The reason this post is better than most, is because it’s a personal project, taken on by myself Fanfan, while Allan stays behind for his so-called ‘Man-Time’ (when he plays Pokemon like a kid). Through a month in Chiang Mai I took on an extensive cafe and coffee shop tour in a search for the best

I’m really not certain if I’ve ever ate lobster before, although there was that one night in Bangkok, when I had a flight the next morning, and a whole load of money to get rid of. So I ordered the most expensive item on the hotel’s room service menu, which was “Rock Lobster”, but it
