The Instagram channel Mario Aliesky TV (@marioalieskytv) surprised its followers with a new video from Thailand, showcasing the experience of a Cuban trying local street food for the first time, specifically grilled chicken gizzards.
These content creators share their experiences in the Asian country. One of them recounted their impression of trying a popular snack, served on wooden sticks and prepared at an impeccably clean stand, which they noted with surprise and delight.
"It's delicious! They're roasted chicken gizzards," he commented while tasting the food in front of the camera.
In Cuba, chicken gizzards are commonly used as an ingredient, usually in soup or stews. They are not found at street food stalls, much less in the form of grilled skewers.
The importance of street food in Thailand
Thailand is famous worldwide for its vibrant street food tradition. Food stalls not only offer authentic flavors at affordable prices, but they also represent a way of life, a meeting point between locals and visitors, and a showcase of ingenuity and passion for cooking.
Vendors often specialize in one or two dishes, ensuring careful preparation and unique flavors. Additionally, many of these stands adhere to strict hygiene standards, dispelling the prejudice that street food is synonymous with poor cleanliness.
Trying these dishes represents a journey of gastronomic and cultural discovery. In a context where scarcity limits food variety in Cuba, being able to enjoy exotic and well-prepared meals is an exciting experience.
