- If you like Thai food, Leng Kee in Pattaya is a must go to. The Thai food at the bottom of Soi Buakhao is off the charts. It's the best ive had so far. #lengkee #thaifood

Amazing value for that beautiful food merry Christmas darren❤
Joy to watch you never disappoint DJ 👍👍

HI Darren Another great review all great food you had and good price as well.
I loved all the dishes but afraid I I am not a fan of fish but would eat Fish and Chips.and scampi .
I would eat Prawns if they were just Prawns only without taking of the shell etc.
Thank you for sharing.
I was salivating watching you chomp that down Darren, All the best for Xmas mate! 👍
I think it’s cabbage in fish sauce, one of my faves. The spicy dish I had yesterday with my other half and my son and it is delicious but I don’t know the name. You are loving Thailand Darren and good luck to you. Did you find anywhere for Christmas lunch?
You’re in Pattaya for the quality food right? 👙
At last I’m getting notifications again 🙏🏻. Merry Christmas 🎄☃️⛄️🎅🏻🥰
Always enjoying the great vlogs. Fantastic looking food Darren, yummy !
Very well done mate👌
If I may clarify location of the restaurant so easier to find for others:
Its at ""TOP END"" of SOI BUAKHAO turn left as its "NORTH".
( not bottom-end /south) for peeps to understand location. 🍽
Have a great Christmas in the Land of smile, lucky you.😁
That fish stir fry looked and sounded amazing.. and cabbage and oyster sauce is a must try now.. have a good one big man .. 🙌
Merry Christmas Darren 🎅 🎄 🍻 x
Happy holidays!
Food looks delicious so cheap your loving your life well done u happy Xmas 🎄
Best regards
Try Gai kratiem prik thai if you like garlic, it's one of my favourites. Also have you tried the food court in big c extra (just down the road)?
Darren I make that at home oyster sauce cabbage and garlic 🧄 but I put ginger in it as well lovely bit of scan mate you can even put sweet peppers and chicken that looks delicious mate happy Christmas
Lovely had beef with oyster sauce the other night and egg fried rice & spring rolls one of my favorite dishes
Just to let you know Darren, best hair cut you've ever had, keep it up
Good onya mate. You bought a massive grin to my face again. Thank you.
Glad to hear it
Enjoy every moment of your adventure my friend and merry Christmas ❤
Haha the fly’s around when you always eating reminds me when I was living in Malta 🇲🇹 looks amazing food 🥘
That stirfry Chinese cabbage is phenomenal, I also usually opt for the stewed duck and prawn fried rice it's fantastic. Cheers
All we need now is a smell App for your utube videos Darren 😉😊🙏
Great to see you eating fresh vegetables regularly, Darren. That will help regulate your eating, give the nutrients, and help with your weight loss - improve your health. And their tasty too! 👍
A visit to a tattoo parlour would be good..
Nice bit of tucker there DJ
especially the curry...🤠
I thought you were on Lengkhee. Had me confused. 555. The place you are at is fantastic and open late. Have not been since the end of Covid but you have stirred my memories so next time in Patts I will visit.
Looks like a tasting sensation Darren.👍
Your videos have helped me with my depression and loneliness over christmas after losing my Dad just wanted to say thank you and merry christmas
I have a cry every year over memory of mum and dad. Have a good day.
Stay strong man, focus on the good things.. I understand depression. I live with a severe depressive disorder and know it’s genuinely horrific. Make sure (force yourself) to shower everyday first thing and go for walks. Focus on small positives and remember the good times. There will be more different good times ahead. Merry Christmas man.
Sorry to hear about your dad. I lost my dad 3 years ago. Still hurts.
@@Tomtoms-tomtoms Thank you
Stay strong mate. One of the tricks I use is to always listen to a comedy radio programme as I go to bed. Also, if you can, excercise.
Take care
🙏🏽👍
Hi Darren, have you met rides for kicks yet? He is a youtuber based in Rayong, he may have advice re. You buying bigger bike for your tours. Good luck with everything. Or Chock dee kap. As is said in Thailand.
I tried reaching out
Hi Darren food looks great and you do look healthy 👍
Is it off the charts Darren by any chance lol ,Hope you and the family have a Great Christmas and a very happy New Year ❤❤❤
There's nothing nicer than fresh squid. In Thai food, over there would be fantastic. Gotta give it a go Darren. 😀
DJ if you can eat jellied eels you can eat anything Happy Christmas
Looked fantastic DJ.
There a new restaurant across the road issan restaurant very good can’t miss it very big looks posh but very cheap
You’d love a tender massaman neua mate ( beef ) very tender , my misses does it in the slow cooker at home
looks good but isn't there another part of a fish you can eat. please keep them coming DJ.
Check out The Devonshire on Soi Lengkee been there for many years
I have
What a bargain D 😊
Brilliant video😂
You look like you’re having a fantastic time there, Darren! Good move, mate.
Where you are on Pattaya Klang almost opposite is a food court which was very good and very good prices, it is next to a Mango and sticky rice vendor which I know you like.
Authentic Thai food is as good as it gets. Glad you are finding more quality places to eat. Happy Christmas!
Words from 🍁
Looking sharp
Good vibrations
🌊
~cheers
Try The Beer Garden on beach road just before walking street. The balcony is on the sea. Great food and views
DJ, never knew there is a Brooklyn in Thailand. 😂 Happy Xmas m8.
Good on ya mate ,
I’ve never been there ,
Soon to be be expat ( Aussie ) love ya vids pal.
Omg Daz that is so much food for one person. Glad you have the gym. Looks like healthy food though and whole cloves of garlic are going to be killing any illness that comes your way. I love spicy food but there is definitely a point where I can't eat it cos all you teast the heat. At that point it spoils it for me. Glad you enjoyed your meal.
Then you haven't tried authentic Thai food - another level
@@DJsFoodTravels yes I have travelled all over south east Asia. Love Thai food. There is just somethings that are too hot.
Bum burner 😂 food looks amazing Darren.
Best thing you're done I reckon and the family will agree too I'm sure. A happy healthy dad, I wish mine was still here. All the best Darren have a great Christmas 🎄
Prawns! Yum
been going to Leng lee for 20 yrs, since my thai wife took me there . One to try ,is the place on the corner of 3rd road and soi pothole,, Phak Bung Loi Fha Pattaya Sai 3
Ate at this place loads, always good. Think it was around 2002 I first went here as a bright eyed 19 year old just discovering Pattaya.All looked good, next time try the braised pork leg, it is amazing especially paired with the nam Jim it’s served with , cooked for hours.
Will you ever cook in your apartment again, it just looks too good in these restaurants. I’d like to see you go to a more upmarket restaurant just out of interest. Happy Xmas.
Upmarket to come
DELICIOUS!!!😀🍻
The night before Chinese new year they got a place round the back with around 3000 duck hanging ready to go it’s amazing. DJ I say many many times you are in the greatest place on earth Thailand enjoy my friend loving the vlogs 👍👍🤝
Darren Not being rude enjoy you videos but remember 2things the seafood in most restaurants is farm raised also The locals don’t eat out every day as they don’t have the money that’s why it’s cheap relatively
There's a well known cheap but great place that is similar to this at 3rd Road end of Soi Chaiyapoon/Pothole on the right side corner. It's called Phak Bung Loi Fha. You probably know it already but if not, it's worth a try.
Hey Daz,
You've obviously been eating out at a variety of places.
Encountered any food poisoning thus far?
I like tod mun going.. prawn cakes in a batter served with sweet chilli.
I also like the beef soup noodles you see around the place. Get friendly with women from the bar, and you'll soon have access to good local food.
Massaman curry is fantastic, if you can find one try it with beef
Will do 🙏🏼😊
Sounds amazing John, keep up the great work mate.
Have you tryed hungry hippo soi bukhao chicken tikka narm bread afternoon s 159 baht unbelievable try it
The see food diet .
Must be losing your bearings mate that’s central Pattaya road or Pattaya klang just past the entrance to start of soi buakhao
It’s Pattaya Klang
@ that’s what a just said or can you not read
That restaurant was the start of the Lengkee Empire... Soi Lengkee etc. Chinese not Thai. I've always found the service a little strained but as you say absolutely great food. .... Happy Christmas chap! Last time I checked it was still owned by a middle aged Chinese woman..... Aim high!!!
Nice food vlog Darren enjoyed it i will be there next year cant wait to try thai food merry Christmas
One dish in the UK over a tenner, and we love your conversion prices DJ it helps 👍👍
@@PaulC_9721 Whats the wages in UK compaired to Thailand?😊
@@SPUNKER1000 And?
Happy Xmas DJ you’re a star and we love watching your new content re your Thai journey. Great viewing.
Merry Xmas DJ. All the best.
The joy of retirement-going out for a nosh at 3am if you want to!
What is the name of your handy translator? Nice review
You don't need one if you have a smartphone, you will have a translator app that does the same.
@@grahamjohnson4702 Thanks I have yet to find an app that is quick? Can you suggest one by chance?
Fluentalk
Looked fab enjoy merry Christmas.🎄🎄🎄
A translater will come in handy Darren 👍
If you like spicy; try pad kee mao. Or Drunken spaghetti. Wife makes a lovely one.
That food looked absolutely delicious. Keep on enjoying your new life.
Your thai is great 😂😂😂😂
Your own home in Thailand. Wee bike to run around on. Bigger bike to buy in the future. All those beaches, the sun and sea. Swimming pool and gym on your doorstep. Wonderful people. So many amazing places to visit and things to see. And delicious food! I wonder if you made the right decision? 😂 Have another great day DJ. 😁❤️
D.j your spot on that looks amazing am hungry now enjoy no you will.alf.
Looks like you loving the Thai food not always the best idea asking for it spicy ha ha as it is spicy already Merry Christmas mate god bless
Darren, I don't think I've seen you happier - you look younger and thinner too, obviously, Thailand and your new lifestyle, agrees with you. That meal was banging and I'm off to try some cabbage, garlic and oyster sauce. 👍👍 Darren, love the new intro - keep the vlogs coming.🤘😎🤘
I totally agree i think getting away from London has done Darren the world of good.
Thinner 😂😂 good one
Wow, thank you
I've followed you for some time now. Always loved your content. It's gone up a notch now. Excellent stuff. Merry Xmas and onwards and upwards.
🎄😊🙏🏼
Keep telling us the prices 🙏
Darren, are you going to review a nice Christmas Dinner?
Not sure if Robin Hood do one.
Edit
They do and its excellent as to be expected.
£110
not spicy not tastey. Thai food has to have spice. The more you venture from Pattaya the more you will experience proper Thai food. Im not knocking Pattaya but the prices are double what they normally would be outside of that city and alot of the places (maybe less soo Leng Kee) offer toned down versions for foreigners, but I promise you, when you find those places that have a tiny menue and specialise in 1 or 2 dishes, they are infinitely better. Im always a little weary of places which have a giant and extensive menue, the places that really know how to do a dish and have done it for 10-30 years are the smaller stalled and kitches. Much enjoying you opening your horizons and here for the Journey Darren!
DJ Any cabbage cooked any way is maybe my favourite veg My old Dad hated it and always said he ate so much of it during WW2 I could have his
The other food looked bang on too ✊👏 Merry Christmas btw
Thanks for taking us along on your new chapter in life Darren - it's a huge change for you I guess and you're very brave for seeing it through! Sending my best wishes for your first Christmas outside the UK. Stay safe and well and looking forward to as much content as you can muster!
😊🙏🏼🎄
I tried all these dishes being guided by a Thai partner, in 3 weeks you have tried as much as i did in 3 months when I moved here. Keep it up
It was not your mum cooking cabbage less delicious but because of "Taiwanese flat cabbage" was used. When cutting this cabbage in half, it is less dense, sweeter than normal cabbage and crispier too. Hope this info will help your mum feel better!
Nice food DJ, keep up the good work, Merry Christmas for tomorrow.
