Nakhon Phanom, Thailand – Located in the Isan region of Northeastern Thailand, along the mighty Mekong River, Nakhon Phanom is one of the most laid back provinces in Thailand. Today we’re in Ban Na Thon Village (บ้านนาถ่อน) and the community has gather to cook local Thai Isan / Lao food, and we’re going to learn about their amazing culture.

Really quickly – Nakhon Phanom is located along the Mekong River and is part of the Isan region of Thailand. But that being said, it’s across the river from Laos, and the people of Isan share the same culture and food from Lao.

Ban Na Thon Village (บ้านนาถ่อน) is a fantastic village, so laid back, friendly, and with a variety of homestays. We had the pleasure of spending a number of nights in this village where we did a lot of cooking and eating local food, and we also did a number of activities to learn about the local culture.

For breakfast we had a number of pounded salads with long-beans, amazing grilled chicken, and sticky rice. For lunch, which was one of the biggest meals of the day, they made a huge amount of dishes – the highlights being the “bon kob,” a pounded frog chili dip and a buffalo skin chili dip. There was also an Isan food of raw pig’s blood coagulated into a jelly. I had eaten a couple times in Laos before. It was an amazing meal and great to eat with the community.

For dinner and final meal they Aunty’s made a beautiful bowl of laap, and Isan style mixed meat salad and herbs, this time made with fish. Again, it was fantastic to learn about the culture of the amazing people and their Isan / Lao culture.

    The baci ceremony (tying of strings around the wrist) is an ethnic Lao tradition which has roots in Lao Animism.

    I lived in Laos 2007-2015. These dishes are very familiar to me.

    I love watching your video Mark, I miss the countryside, eating fresh food, I grew up in Manila til I was 24 then migrated to Sydney Australia in 1983. When I was 16 years old I visit my best friend’s hometown province on Easter break for 4 days every year for 8 consecutive years , I had such a wonderful time. We go picnicking in the rice field, cooked fresh chicken, fresh veges, eat on the banana leaves, ride in a carabao cart, pick green mangoes on a tree and taste like apple and so crunchy. I really missed it so much that’s why I watch your video and reminisce the great time I had in the countryside, but just 4-7 days, not long though. Such an amazing experience. Thank you Mark for sharing this magnificent video. Cheers Gina👍👏😘🇦🇺

    I think it's not always about fear, Sometimes realistic factors discourage people from reaching their goals in life. For instance, I've tried investing in the crypto market several times but always got discouraged by fluctuations of Bitcoin value.

    Wow this is an Amazing Video, being from New York, I’ve never heard of eating Buffalo skin, or pigs blood let alone made into dips, looks interesting, Mark.
