My favorite Yarowat 'Hor Fun'

Whenever in Bangkok, I would find an evening to eat out at sidewalks of Yaworat (Chinatown).

This this the kind of evening traffic one can expect daily.. the prominent display of sign boards stretching out over the street is not unlike in H.K.
















A little later, the neon signs come alive as the side walks on both sides began its nightly routine being transformed to food mall by the busy road.
















This is my favorite 'Hor Fun' shop seen from the entrance of Soi 6. The cook is the man in blue.





















What is special about it? I think it is the way he cooks it over charcoal fire. You got to see how he prepared them - putting his heart and soul into every servings!

He fried 'hor fun' with eggs diligently in small portions. The gravy with meat and cuttle fish are stir fried separately before being served together.
















I would normally have another portion take home for breakfast next morning.
Yes - next morning! It usually turn out to be my night snack while I trade in the early hours.

Soi 6 is an alley lined with shops selling dried Chinese food stuff.. connects to Chareon Krung (parallel to Yaworat). Best to visit around 5pm as most are usually by 7 p.m.
































End of a day but preparing a large pot of cooked vegies (Kanna Chai in Teocheow) for the next day.
