UNSAFE Food in Khon Kaen Chinatown?!?

This was literally "road" food and not street food at the Chinese festival in Khon Kaen, Thailand. It's like a mini Chinatown. Great food but a little scary at times.
Video #48. Welcome to the latest video for my channel @KhonKaenDen . In this video, Beau and I visit the annual Chinese community festival in Khon Kaen, Thailand where there is something for everyone on the menu... though it seems to come with an adrenaline rush this year being so close to the traffic. Sadly, had to cut out some of the better bits due to Chinese music played in the background and potential monetization/copyright issues. Anyway, I hope you enjoy.

Welcome to my latest video for my channel, Khon Kaen Den. In this video, Beau and I go to enjoy the wonderful Chinese community celebration they have every year at the lake. However, though the people and the food was awesome, some of the roads became a little scary... it was literally road food and not street food. It was still such a colourful and wonderful experience as always! I hope you enjoy it like we did. Den.

Not heard from your channel in 4-5 days. Is everything alright? This is not like you, so I am sure I'm not the only one worried.

Ha ha @ Beau - I eat everything! thats just what my Mrs woulld say. Never been to the Khonkaen Chinese festival but they have a good one in Khao Suan Kwang -sadly not as many food stalls . maybe give it a go next year.

Wow, great festival…love Beau’s zest for life…you are becoming famous with the locals…your pupils will always remember you…You are indeed: Kon Khaen Den!

[@KhonKaenDen]

Yeah, it was a cool little festival, not massive, just right. Beau keeps me going most of the time, she can be very funny indeed. Shame she can't be in all of my vids as she has to work at uni. A mini celebrity in KK. I could live with that haha... thanks a million for sharing! Den.

So, did Beau eat everything? That would be a challenge.. 😄 This was fun, maybe noisy for you, but fun for us. I wonder if Chinese people have anything similar in China, showcasing Thai culture and food.. I guess not. Btw, I love how you made that lovely elderly Thai woman`s day. Now she has something to show her grandkids. "Look, a falang! And he spoke Thai too!" 😃 So, you ended up eating Japanese food instead.. Haha, that figures. I love those dumplings too. Literally on the street, yes. Be glad you didn`t have to eat roadkill 😁 Thanks guys, this might be another reason to visit Khon Kaen 😊😊

Awesome street food, when you have to keep your head up. Lots to choose from there

[@KhonKaenDen]

Cheers, John. Yeah, great food though sitting right on the road and knowing how some Thais drive was a bit scary haha. Thanks for sharing, Den.

Hello King Den 😊 i was woried missus stopped you watching the game ...poor defencively but goinging the latest inter bore game, top of league, happy days City .
I love these type of festivals, I was in Phuket when i arrived and the vegie festival was on loved it. Living in a Asia has 2 strong selling point. The first out door culture and the best the Asian festivals . Just tasting foods from other countries is amazing my taste buds has blown since coming here and so has what i daily eat. Less & less western food and more Asian and it notice on my waste line so thin .
That looks like a great festival, music, colour and food. Yes you eat on the road and its not prim and proper but its Asia, not bother me at all. Always wondered the amount of thais with business?, like to know the percetage. Take care blue, missus looks a ball of fun 😅. CTWD

street food in Thailand is one of the best in the world, if not the best.

I could not agree more with you, Daniel. It is awesome!!! Thanks for sharing, Den.
