“Chow and I are truly old friends. Her book on Thai street food is complete and very well organized. I particularly enjoy her comments about whether Thai street food will survive or evolve into something different. This book is not only useful for those who want to know where to find the best street food but also to inform them about the types of street food available in Thailand and specifically Bangkok.” (from Amazon)
