Massaman curry is famous for a good reason—it’s so gosh darn delicious!!! If you’ve had it, you know I’m right 🙂 I’m using beef short ribs in this version, which is hands down the best cut of beef for this…it’s flavourful and all the marbling keeps it moist and tender. Creamy sweet potato goes perfectly […]

Pad Woon Sen or glass noodle stir-fry is a well-known Thai dish, but this version is lesser known. However, it is the one we make most often at home because it comes from Hainan, my grandma’s birthplace! This is one of her signature dishes, and a dish she makes every time I come home to […]

Worth every effort. Perfect vegetarian appetizer for any party! DIM SUM VLOG: The original inspiration for this recipe http://buff.ly/2tLUyIT INGREDIENTS 300g medium-firm tofu or smooth […]
When is comes to barbecuing, this recipe is an absolute classic. Pork jowl is a cut that is greatly underappreciated in North America. It is a flat, grill-friendly piece of pork that is incredibly flavourful because of the fat that runs through the meat. You can find this dish at restaurants that specialize in Isaan […]
This is not only one of my absolute favourite chicken dishes, it’s also one of the most meaningful. It is something my grandmother makes for me every time i come home to Thailand! Usually the chicken she uses is the leftover from Hainanese Chicken Rice, but you can make it directly by simply poaching up […]
What an INCREDIBLE experience! I got a chance to go to Thailand to look at the journey that Thai jasmine rice takes before it ends up on your store shelves, and I am so excited to share it with you! I have cooked and eaten thousands of bowls of rice in my life, which is […]
A classic Thai dessert recipe, especially for durian lovers! A sweet coconut-durian “broth” is poured over chewy sticky rice…this is such a comforting, heart-warming dessert that is super easy. And if you already know how to make mango sticky rice, this recipe will be a breeze! In this recipe I use “montong” durian which is […]

Secret note for people who read my descriptions: Watch to the end for the 8th bonus recommendation 😉 One source of really yummy food in Thailand that is often overlooked is the good old supermarket! Thai supermarkets are packed with tons of delicious stuff, especially snack stuff! But with hundreds of products on the shelf…which […]

Pomelo is like a giant, sweet grapefruit. When you get a good pomelo..few things are more refreshing and invigorating to eat! It’s also the perfect candidate for this beautiful, light salad, and I waited a long time to make this recipe cuz I wanted to make sure I am in Thailand where pomelos are the […]
Dim Sum in Bangkok is world class, no question about it! In this vlog, my friends and I went to a classic restaurant that is very well known for their authentic Hong Kong style dim sum: Ah Yat Abalone Forum. Ah Yat also offers other Cantonese dishes outside of their dim sum menu. There are […]
