One of my favorites is moo ping—grilled pork skewers, a popular street food in Thailand. Serious Eats / Vicky Wasik. These skewers are made with sliced pork tossed in a savory-sweet marinade, which balances the saltiness of Thai fish sauce, soy sauce, and oyster sauce with the roasty sweetness of palm sugar.

Moo yang refers to Thai grilled pork typically made from pork neck and grilled over charcoal, known for its smoky flavor. Moo ping is a street food dish, using skewered pork marinated in a sweeter sauce, often grilled quickly and served with sticky rice.

Allow to cook for ~5 minutes on each side until the pork is cooked through. Baste with coconut milk if you like. Serve the moo ping skewers immediately with a side of sticky rice. It also goes well with the Northeastern Thai dipping sauce known as nam jim jaew, although this sauce is not necessary for serving.

Guay teow, or noodle soup, is the most popular street food dish in Thailand. You'll find big bubbling pots in Bangkok street food markets and across the country, with vendors ready to dish up a hot bowl of noodles, meat and broth.
