Head to Nai Ek’s rolled noodles shop. Taste perfectly cooked, thinly rolled-up rice noodles that resemble mini-cigars. Continue to another place for some crab-fried rice topped with lime and chilies in fish sauce. Tour the area and see Rajadamnoen Avenue which links the Grand Palace to Dusit Palace.
Finally, stroll to Jay Fai, which is the only Thai street stall with a Michelin star. Hear more about this food stall from your guide. Choose to end your tour with drop-off at the artsy Teens Of Thailand bar on the fringes of Chinatown, or go back to the Samyan MRT station.

Would do again! - Oh-Hoo was a fantastic guide and very knowledgeable about the food and city. She accommodated my husband who does not eat pork or beef and ordered options that would suit him, which was really kind. The only downside was that Jay Fai’s stop did not happen as her restaurant is now closed on Sundays and Mondays (this was the main reason I booked the tour). My family especially loved the tuk tuk rides (my son the most) and we were even able to commission the tuk tuks for a ride back to our hotel.

Awesome food trip! - It was a great experience. The length of the tour was perfect, not too long and not too short. My tour guide was Penny and she's superb. She knows places and stories, and patiently walked us through the busy China town :) She also makes sure that we go home safely and sound.

Excellent experience - must do in Bangkok - This was amazing and great and all other positive adjectives I can think of. The guide is soooo honest and knows amazing spots and was flexible for vegetarians. She gives you a great insight into the workings of Thai culture and really knows her stuff. I really recommend this tour. I also really recommend not eating all day before you do it because it’s very big portions. I also can’t say enough how good the food was.

Amazing Tour Experience with Mina! - The nighttime food tour was an incredible Bangkok experience. Our tour guide Mina was super nice and incredibly informative - she knew everyone at the restaurants we went to and therefore received amazing service! The tuk tuk ride to each location was super fun, as well.
Be sure to come hungry - you receive a full entree of food at each location. I highly recommend this tour!

Won't do it again.... - The tour was disappointing. I expected to stay in Chinatown and tour the Michelin street food stalls while walking in the interesting alleys as on previous tours. The tuk tuk journeys around Bangkok were a waste of time. The food at the four vendors was ok but nothing special - two very similar broth dishes and one mediocre fried rice. We were also served much too much sweet Chinese dough on the second stop which should have been dessert. The guide was very kind and made sure we all stayed together, but her efficiency was not enough for me to give this tour more than three stars. Look for something else where you visit at least 10/12 stalls in Chinatown and don't spend time touring the city on a food stall tour.

Not what was expected - They don’t deliver what is promised. You see some Michelin guide recomended food stalls, mainly from 2019. And you go past Jay Fai, but there is no possibility to go inside.
Tour guide was very nice, but in a hurry.
If you go into China toen in your own, you would see more.

Make your own tour - This has nothing to do with a michelin foodtour. You will go to 4 streetfood places. Some were recommended by Michelin in 2019 for the last time. No Michelinstar or Bib gourmand restaurant. Walk by yourself through Chinatown, select some places through Tripadvisor and you will have a better evening.
Using the name of Jay Fai, you will only pass the place.
They use the name Michelin and Jay Fay, but this has nothing to do with a well organized food tour.
