“Mâi phèt, Mâi phèt!” — “Less spicy, less spicy!”
This becomes Fred Chesneau’s catchphrase as he dives into Thailand’s vibrant street food scene, where a few bahts buy you fresh, fragrant and extremely spicy dishes.

In Bangkok, Fred cohosts a cooking show with the charismatic Thai chef Adjan Ying Saak.
In the northern mountains, he travels through tribal areas, tasting local specialties, wading into rice paddies and sharing techniques, secrets and improvised recipes using his survival cooking kit.

In Loei, he takes part in an unusual festival before learning a special mud crawling method to catch shellfish.

A joyful, generous and delicious journey where food becomes the key to understanding a culture.
