I have eaten in many Ubon Ratchathani restaurants and have discovered some treasures that are my favorites However sometimes I still just hop on my motorcycle and drive around til I see a new place I want to try. It's always exciting to sample to spicy cuisine in a newly discovered restaurant.

Mixed in with Thailand food menus you will find other Asian cuisines here. Chinese, Korean, Japanese and Vietnamese, but a word of warning, if you are addicted to western food you won't find a lot of it here. In my journeys here I have seen Italian and a few steak houses, but other than that just the usual KFC and Pizza Company. But hey, why travel to Thailand for what you can get at home?

Ubon Ratchathani Cheap Eats

I grew up thinking McDonalds, Burger King and Taco Bell were the orginal fast food. But having lived here in Thailand I now have my doubts. The real fast food began here. Many sidewalks and streets are lined with food carts where you can get most any food you want, and not only is it quick but it is cheap too. If you think the drive-up window is cool and conveninet you out to experience the Thai version. Here's how it works, you drive up to the vendors cart of the food you want, stop and while sitting in your car or on your bike, order what you want. The vendor will cook it, package it and hand it to you. Yes it's that simple. If you would rather eat it there most have a area with a few tables and chairs for you to eat your meal. Come check it out for yourself.
