I've noticed on some previous videos people asking about germs and getting sick eating street food in Asia. I lived in Asia for 4 years as a kid with my family and have been back several times since, specifically Malaysia (amazing street food there btw, China and Taiwan. A few noted for people concerned about this. Yes germs and getting ill are a risk but it's not usually anywhere near as bad as most people think, usually the worst you get is a few days of the runs, though I had this issue for about a month once. We never got really ill the entire 4 years we were there, though my father got very ill on one trip back (from shellfish in a nice restaurant, see below. Here are some tips. Hawker stalls and real street food is actually some of the safer food usually, even if it looks dirty. The reason is they are forced to cook it on the spot from fresh ingredients most of the time. Stick to the busy popular places most frequented by locals. Be careful about shellfish, you DO take a risk eating shellfish in a lot of places, other seafood should be ok though. Also be careful with iced cold drinks sold on the street. Ironically it's often the hotel buffet that will make you sick not the street food, stay away from places that seem to cater just to tourists. Stick to these rules and a little common sense and most people should be fine. :P

The architecture makes me want to go to Thailand Thanks for another well done video Now I'm hungry for chicken satay with peanut and coconut sauce.

Nice review MarkI look foward to every food review from you. Keep them coming and keep us YouTuber's locked in on your advice on food tast, food quality, food preparing, and we're to go get those kinds of foods. Also Mark we're can I purchase a shirt and is there any way on your next food review if I could get a shout out it would really make my day here in Yuma, Arizona. Thank you and much respect

As a Thai, I don't think the taste of blood jelly is as disgusting as it sounds. Like Mark said, it doesn't have any flavour by itself. Since it's already been boiled, its texture is firm - half way between tofu and jelly. It doesn't melt, which allows it to be put in soup or stir-fried. In my opinion, English black pudding tastes more like blood than this jelly. Anyway, to each, his own: )

Hainan chicken rice The ginger, dark soy sauce, and more importantly the chili play an important role in complimenting the chicken rice to the highest level. Mark Do come to Singapore if you have the chance and try out our local cuisine. Laksa, sambal sting ray, chilli crab, chicken rice (white or roasted) will not disappoint you.

See, these are the kind of servings my husband loves, everything separate and all sauces on the side so he can add as much or as little as he wants. I have to be honest and say that the chicken on top of the rice looked a bit bland, but as soon as you added the sauces on top, it looked soooo good to eat.

Hi Mark thanks for the info about Silom food court. We will be leaving for Thailand on sunday and will go there to eat. So nice that you always give the Thai names for food. That is very help full. Do you know the Thai word for Sea asperges or razor clams?
