About

The story of food is the story of people. And our mission on OTR is to document the dishes, recipes, and chefs that push boundaries, preserve old traditions, and most of all, deserve to be recorded. From our home in Bangkok, OTR is following the road wherever it leads, as we unwind the stories of what today is called "cuisine"- because when it comes to food, our shared history unfolds on every single plate.

Video Description

If there’s one color to describe Bangkok, it might be green- as in, the trays of vibrant curry on every street corner and sold in restaurants from the humblest to the Michelin elite. Thai Green Curry is a local dish, created in the city from uniquely Thai flavors and made for a single purpose; to appeal to everyone. But even though its origin is said to be recent, nobody quite knows who or when it first showed up and how it conquered the capital, and then the world. So today we’re on a food crawl through Bangkok’s heritage, chasing down the best and oldest versions and trying to work out the real story of Green Curry. - Please "Like" if you enjoy the video, subscribe to the channel, and turn on notifications! - Please consider supporting OTR on Patreon and thanks so much to anyone who does; your support truly keeps us going. http://www.patreon.com/OTRontheroad Website: http://www.OTRontheroad.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/otr.offtherails/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y%3D - 0:00 - Introduction 0:59 - A Day in Bangkok 4:05 - Khao Gaeng Rattana 7:07 - The First Meal 10:31 - Road Trip 12:55 - Chicken 16:27 - The History of Green Curry 19:55 - Origins 21:34 - Gaeng Pa Sriyan 25:20 - The Dish of Bangkok 27:08 - The Other History 31:35 - Palace Green Curry 37:10 - Home, Kind Of 41:25 - End of the Line 44:45 - Credits and Post-Credits - Video Credits: https://youtu.be/uxWzAauoYeA?si=MYuWTrUo9VcdtVyI https://youtu.be/uISPkMl8ho4?si=kgllI7r3p3LrTcmO https://youtu.be/L84-o-3WO5s?si=BB7fMafVPic5xjwt https://youtu.be/76FPnL1gCPk?si=UZ4OEAL3LJ5fg0Vg https://youtu.be/8sI3WZMAN4c?si=XFALIkj28g6Sfi7H https://youtu.be/bumNAJPFh-w?si=_fdCzyCvNiAR_YKK https://youtu.be/PFowT6u6xU8?si=BkjT7x-yq-SbHeRS https://youtu.be/MLNH_BEOFps?si=YIWeo_A_CN4-fSIx https://youtu.be/9Kf-zdJIqIo?si=YdmNRs5EoRfcgA9c https://youtu.be/GHFHGQFL4WQ?si=vj4iStrYWrj3_zDO https://youtu.be/J5dQdujL59Q?si=jyyG5Lin-KoLH6or https://youtu.be/3yq6r4ZoocM?si=6fkm8bhoYSWiJm5_ https://youtu.be/reLa5QiXYIA?si=aXv7Hu0WsjBImS3p https://youtu.be/N586CAAgDBI?si=88DHH5g88ZKtmvjq https://youtu.be/wno_qUB02lM?si=xTD1A5MmwfFm5Ss1 https://youtu.be/veoDAfbwojo?si=wlFJknvoSgtvpAZX https://youtu.be/yvBYUBTcAqs?si=1yNli9dPw6hc7lMA https://youtu.be/177EvumLQ2Q?si=X1OOG_c7_cTWBuZu https://youtu.be/jg9fdlWEG6I?si=j9TtdIfKoXBUS-Cl
