What does a restaurant look like when its Chef becomes a FIREMAN? Or wait, is it the other way around...? I might believe our new friend SomKit's story for either of these, but WOW is the food here AMAZING!
Li and I both would sit here for hours just watching this husband and wife team at work, but what I love even more is how humble and how friendly this entire family is! I love that we get to share this meal together today!! Thank you for joining us for today's video.
The style of food which Chef SomKit prefers is mainly Thai food, which means Central Thai food. As his family is from Koh Chang originally, his years as a chef in Bangkok would not have put too much pressure on him to change the way he likes to cook.
Up here in the North however, we get a treat today as I am SO in the mood for that perfect blend of CentralThai, Chineseinfluenced dishes featuring mega amounts of smoke from the highheat wok pan, loads of fresh vegetables, and wonderfully sour soups full of fish.
This is a beautiful restaurant, and its location is also quite easy to find as well. Just a few km north of the eastwest river which cuts through downtown Chiang Rai city, you will see the red sign with white lettering "Som Kit Pochanaa."
See you for some more international action again very soon, starting with next Monday's video (2 country visits this Christmas, see you for all the fun in Malaysia and Vietnam!!)
