Eating Thai Street Food -- Selection, Price and Safety

Membership site now open: http://retirecheap.tv/members  The most inexpensive and practical food to eat while living in Thailand would be the street food. The food sold off carts parked at certain times on the streets or sidewalks. The most common Thai dishes can be found being sold this way. Costs average around 30--35 Baht per dish that comes served over rice. This food is the real fast food as it is cooked and served faster than the traditional Western fast food and much tastier and nutritious as well. Check out what food is available in just one area of town in Chiang Mai.

I had to like the food because I eat meals every day. And the enjoyment of food is high on my list of enjoyable things. But not only did the food need to be tasty but it needed to be affordable as well. So going out and buying a seafood meal for two needs to be something that is affordable to do as often as I desire.
