A Visit to Mr. Fat
November 19, 2009 by nopstar
I know most of you who make it over to Thailand to train are most likely watching your weight. I feel very sad for you.
In my next life maybe I’ll start a street food blog… when I’m back in Bangkok, it’s mostly to see friends and family. I try to get my training in, but it’s mostly to keep from getting any fatter then I already am.
If you take a break from training and venture out at night… you may find yourself around Silom ave… Lots of bars and restaurants…
No trip to Silom or Bangkok for that matter would be complete without a stop at my favorite Moo Ping stand.
For those of you who don’t know, I’m a bit obsessed with Moo Ping (pork skewers)… it’s happiness on a stick. Moo Ping is grilled and served with Sticky Rice (Khao Niew).
After the fights at Lumpini I normally head over to Silom for some cervesas and Moo Ping. Not any old Moo Ping will do though… you’ll find me camped out in front of the 7 eleven at the corner of Silom and Convent roads. There you’ll find the Moo Ping stand of Khun Uan (Mr. Fat) yeah he’s a little chubby… making in my opinion the best Moo Ping in the City of Angels.
At 10 baht a skewer you can do some serious damage… so if you’re trying to make weight I’d suggest you stay away.
haha that guy even made the bangkok post thanks too his awesome moo ping
Damn, makes me miss Thailand. :(
I do love myself some moo ping but my personal weakness is gai yang.I literally cannot get enough of that chicken on sticks goodness!
That smile says it all.. haha
ive never seen nop look more in his element
That looks exactly like it’s uncreatively named Filipino counterpart, Bar-B-Q… seriously, that’s what we call it…. DAMN that looks good!
You can be like Thai Anthony Bourdain. Would watch.
dont think nop would eat half of what bourdain eats
Or as big a lush as Anthony…
Luckily I’m vegan or else I’d be in trouble, ha!
clearly you don’t know me… I would definitely eat what Bourdain eats and then some.
he ate roasted animal cock once without flinching….
the nopz is down with munchin cackz.
Really?
That dude has the best job in the world… (not the animal cock eating part though)
Would I eat animal cock? Depends i guess… squirrel cackz I’d probably be ok with…
