  • About
Rice and fish are the essential elements of Thai food. Seldom far from flowing water, be it a meandering stream or the River Chao Phraya, Thai people have always fished. They fish for their breakfast, lunch, and dinner, for a product to sell for cash at the market, for something to salt and preserve as a protein and vitamin source, and for something delicious to season their rice.

The most popular fish are plah dook, catfish, and plah chon, serpenthead fish. You will find these two on sale at nearly every upcountry market, and when you see one make the great leap out of its pink plastic tub and slither wildly toward the river, you will not need to ask if the fish is fresh.
