กินข้าวแล้วหรือยัง - It’s the Thai way to greet a friend - its literal translation is ‘Have you eaten rice yet?!’ There's no better way to highlight the importance of eating in Thailand in this food obsessed city.

Our tour was carefully curated and will take you on a journey through the backstreets of Bangkok, mopping up a 15+ taster menu in street spots and eateries that have been serving locals for decades. We'll meet at Yaowarat to discover the rich Thai-Chinese culinary marriage that make this district one of the city's most buzzing street food spots. It's not just about the food though. It's about the people behind the plates who have dedicated their lives to cooking on the street.

Chinatown - Bangkok

Many are unaware of China's centuries-long influence on Thailand that has permeated much of Thai cuisine. From noodles to stir fries, it's time to feast on the history of this culinary marriage. In small groups of up to 8 exclusive guests, our passionate foodie guides take you on a journey around the alleyways of Yaowarat, Bangkok's Chinatown. We don't want to spoil the surprises, but prepare to drool over crispy chive dumplings with nam jim jaew sauce, mop up rich satay with charcoal-grilled chicken, work chopsticks over slow-braised pork, and delve into fragrant steamy bowls of shrimp dumplings and tum yum goong seafood soup, along with a dozen more lip-smackingly good tastings at places you'd struggle to find alone.

    Brilliant food tour! Would definitely recommend. Jonny was our guide and he was very enthusiastic, very funny and gave us lots of good advice about not eating too much at the beginning of the tour! We were in a small group and the organisation of it was great. There was an extra helper who ran ahead to help organise dishes so we weren’t waiting around at each location so the evening went really smoothly. We walked down the backstreets of Chinatown and ate so much good food. We probably wouldn’t have found some of these places ourselves so this tour was well worth it. It was fantastic. As a side note - I really appreciated the fact that they took us to a little place at the start of the tour for a drink and a bathroom break!

  • Good food in the backstreets

    Guide was very friendly and knowledgable. I really enjoyed half of the dishes. The others were ok. Tour definitely exposed us to food we would not have tried on our own.

    Absolutely worth it! Most of the places we went to on this tour, we would've been too intimidated to try by ourselves. Absolutely loved our local guide, Johnny. His energy was infectious, even in a torrential downpour and his comprehensive explanations gave us cultural context that we would not have had otherwise.
