One of my favourite street food stalls in Thailand has to be grilled chicken (gai yaang). You sometimes see the chicken being grilled over a charcoal fire next to a som tam stall. The two go well together. With perhaps some sticky rice as well. You can see the guy here marinating the chicken with some yellow looking liquid. Each vendor uses their own secret ingredients. Here they are probably using some turmeric.

That chicken looks delicious. Unfortunately, on both occasions I've been in Thailand my appetite has totally deserted me and I went several days without eating. Maybe the heat is to blame. I'll do my best to sample some street food next time.
