Som Tum Phannanikom: 90% of Sakon Nakhon residents order Tam Pa

Som Tum Phannanikom: 90% of Sakon Nakhon residents order Tam Pa (spicy papaya salad with various ingredients), living up to its reputation. This restaurant, with 20-30 years of experience, is so good that even in a small market, you'll have to queue. We visited this popular som tum (papaya salad) shop in a small market in Phannanikom District, Sakon Nakhon Province. It's been open for over 20-30 years (inherited from the 79-year-old grandmother), known for its rich flavor and generous portions of ingredients (such as Tam Pa, which includes bamboo shoots, pork sausage, and cherry snails). The owners add plenty of flavorful ingredients as requested and use a special, fragrant fermented fish sauce. We chatted with the mother and grandmother, who are still strong and help their family make som tum, reflecting the local way of life and their desire to stay active even in old age. Huge portions of som tum (papaya salad) at friendly prices (e.g., Som Tum Pa for 40 baht), so much so that you might just make it your regular spot. 00:00 - 01:50: Chatting and greeting the vendor. 01:51 - 02:50: Starting with the first mortar of "Som Tum Teen Kai" (spicy chicken feet salad). 02:51 - 05:10: The crowded place with long queues and the preparation of fresh ingredients. 05:11 - 07:25: "Som Tum Pa with Cherry Snails" and "Som Tum Teen Kai" (spicy chicken feet salad). 07:26 - 08:29: A giant "Som Tum Pa" with so many ingredients it overflows the plate. 08:30 - 10:25: Fresh shrimp and pork sausage. 10:26 - 11:53: "Seafood Set" (fresh shrimp, blue crab).
