Bangkok’s Jay Fai is a legendary shophouse serving Michelin-starred crab omelets and seafood stir-fries cooked live by the iconic goggle-wearing chef.
"Yes, you’ll definitely have to wait for the crab omelet from Raan Jay Fai—we did for over three hours. But how often do you get to win the crab lottery in the form of a crustacean-loaded omelette cooked by an 81-year-old street food legend? The answer is only here. The omelet, and every other dish with crab, like one with celery leaves and chilies, are wholeheartedly worth the wait. Get there as early as you can (they open at 9am), put your name down on the list, and be ready for your number to be called. If you need to kill some time, walk to the nearby Wat Saket Ratchawora Mahawihan Buddhist temple, and then head back for the best crab you’ll have in your life. video credit: Carlo Mantuano video credit: Carlo Mantuano video credit: Carlo Mantuano" - Carlo Mantuano
