Of all the historic restaurants in Bangkok, one must be the oldest. We set out to try to establish which place in the city has the longest history, and to our surprise, it's somewhere that we've been on the channel before; a restaurant along a canal near the Talad Phlu market that we visited while filming our second video ever. So we went back to the restaurant to tell their story and record the history of the oldest restaurant in Bangkok, and to try the five dishes they've served continuously since the days before the roads were built and the city began to modernize. This is Tek Heng Jeen Lee, the home of crispy fried noodles (Mee Krob) favored by the legendary King Rama V, and a place with a wild history befitting the oldest restaurant in Bangkok. - 0:00 - Introduction 1:39 - The Oldest Restaurant 5:13 - Thonburi and Talad Phlu 7:51 - The Food 11:08 - Rama V's Favorite 13:04 - The Origins of Modern Thai Food 16:04 - Michelin 18:24 - The Next 140 Years - Thank you so much for your support!
