This is not just ordinary Kuay Jab; it is Kuay Jab influenced by authentic Vietnamese cuisine, clearly reflecting the cultural diversity of Vietnamese people in Thailand.

Talat Yai, Ubon Ratchathani, is an old market full of local lifestyle vibes and bustling trade. Here, I wandered through narrow alleys to find the delicious Kuay Jab shops recommended by locals.

While sitting at a small shop by the sidewalk eating Kuay Jab, the aroma of spices and boiling broth was so enticing I almost couldn’t leave. The market atmosphere was full of people buying fresh vegetables, spices, and other fresh ingredients used in Vietnamese cooking. I saw Vietnamese vendors chatting in their native language, sharing secret recipes passed down through generations. This is the charm of Talat Yai market that I love the most.

Besides Kuay Jab, I also tried the Vietnamese grilled button squid, which had a unique and exciting flavor. The grilled squid smelled of charcoal and spices, and biting into it revealed tender, bouncy meat combined perfectly with a sweet and sour dipping sauce. Seafood lovers who enjoy Vietnamese cuisine should not miss this dish.
