We had a lovely time on our Eat Like A Local tour. From my first contact with the company I was very impressed with the service they provide. We were a group of 6 that contained 2 people who don’t like spicy food and one pescatarian. Leigh suggested we would be better with a private tour and the food could be tailored to our group. We were taken to 5 different restaurants and the food was amazing. A fantastic way to experience many different tastes. Even the fussiest eater in our group found some foods she liked. The guides Cream & Nush were very friendly, funny and full of information. I would highly recommend this tour.pepe_of_perth

We had a vegetarian on our tour, and Cream did her best to cater for this person. We would recommend Feast Thailand, if you like eating, and want to experience how locals eat.Mari K

Our host Leigh and our guide Belle both met us at Bluport to welcome us on tour and to give us an overview of what to expect. We used a private local songthaew service to go between the five kitchen locations on this tour. We started with a typical Thai breakfast of mainly varying noodle offerings down a street we know well, but within a small local kitchen we did not. We then headed to a restaurant selling Southern Thai specialities where we particularly enjoyed a spicy pork mince dish. Next we tried Northern Eastern Issan food which was plentiful and the barbecued pork was fab. Then back onto the main Phetkasem Road en route to Makro, we stopped at a local lady's kitchen opposite the King's palace, famous both for her miraculous recovery from the jaws of death and her 2-day slow cooked pork. What a treat! Finally, we ventured a little further up, turned down a small street and happened upon a secret garden restaurant far away from the bustle of the main road and offering a delicious version of my favourite green chicken curry. We were truly blown away by the multitude of dishes, flavours and stories behind this food extravaganza. We learnt so much and enjoyed every dish we tried. Belle was an excellent and attentive guide with very good spoken English and an innate passion to share her knowledge with us so that we gained an all-round, first-hand experience of this important part of Thai culture. We would highly recommend both Feast Thailand and Belle for a taste and cultural tour you will always remember.Maree480

We had a great tour with Belle. The bus picked us up on time & with a small group (us & one other couple) we had a wonderful time visiting lots of family businesses where the locals eat. We would never have found these places if it wasn’t for the tour.

Really great introduction to the local food, not just the food tourists are used to ordering, excellent value for money. The tour was well organised and the guide, Cream, was really informative. We went to four different locations and tried a range of food from different regions in Thailand. There was really a lot of different foods to try and it was all very enjoyable.
