Bangkok Chef's Table: Exclusive 8-Guest Culinary Odyssey
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.

The food was terrific and it was a great experience eating at places that I would probably never have discovered as a tourist. Our guide was very friendly and informative

This was a fantastic street food tour. We were tasted 17 different items. This tour helped me to learn what the vendors and small restaurants are selling and gave me the confidence I could try more street foods on my own in the future. I was traveling on my own and appreciated the opportunity to join a small group tour (we were a group of 8) at a reasonable price. I thoroughly enjoyed the tour and highly recommend it.

We loved learning about the history and ingredients of each of the 15 dishes. It was a well paced tour and we enjoyed meeting 6 other people.

Wow what a way to spend 4 hours, truly a wonderful experience, would have been nervous to go to some the locations on our own, but with our wonderful tour guide (Noor) apologise if spelling is incorrect, we felt totally safe in her hands. Her enthusiasm & knowledge again enhanced the tour, couldn’t fault the experience in anyway shape or form, would highly recommend anyone to book this & enjoy. Your welcome 😂😎🙏🙏

Truly a back street experience! I have been on so many food tours in my life and this was hands-down the best food tour I’ve ever been on. Chinatown is an extremely busy area yet this tour was able to find unique places that were off the beaten path with incredible histories. At each vendor or restaurant we were provided with the incredible story and history that made that place so famous. I’m still thinking about the pork satay and the green curry as the flavors were just insane! 16 different bites with plenty of leftovers if you were still hungry! A little note about this tour, which made it so much better, was that each group had a second guide that went ahead to reserve tables or pre-order food, creating a streamlined experience. In addition, at every stop we were offered refills of our bottles of water. These were little touches that I rarely see on other food tours. Great work and I look forward to revisiting many of the places again.

Wow, what a lovely experience with an amazing guide. The food was delicious and we were looked after from beginning to end, they even waited with us for our taxis to make sure we got home safe. Please don’t miss out on this experience if you’re in Bangkok!

Absolutely loved it! The tour provider kept in touch and provided excellent directions about meeting point and expectations. Our guide Tao was fantastic! He was friendly, funny and provided a lot of insights about food, Thai culture and history. The food was very plentiful and I got to try a lot of dishes I probably would never try on my own. I also liked that tour provider keeps all groups to 8 people, so you really get a good experience. Definitely recommend it!

Ant did a great job and the food was great! There was so much food that I had to pace myself to be able to keep going. I’d definitely recommend this tour and Ant.
