Crispy Fried Baby Frog. From the popular street vendor who hangs out in the Jomtien Complex at around 11 pm most nights. If you see him, jump on it because he moves around and doesn’t stay long in one spot. These deep fried to a crisp critters go well with the fried grasshoppers. The frogs are eaten whole, since the young bones are soft, like soft shell crabs. #thaifood #thailife #jomtiencomplex #jomtienpattaya #thailand

Fried Grasshoppers. These are pre-fried, sitting in a food cart in the Jomtien Complex. You order 20, 30, 40 or more baht worth, he takes the appropriate handful and flash fries them in a deep fryer. Toss with salt, spices, and some other spray on condiment and voila! The perfect beer drinking snack. #thaifood #thailife #jomtiencomplex #jomtienpattaya #thailand

Our Lady Of Immigration. She watches over the hordes of anxious farangs on their way to the Chonburi Immigration Office to get their visas extended. Mine went smoothly, it took only one hour. #thailife #thailand #expatlife #jomtienpattaya

Corn Is Rising. Sold on the street from steamers by immigrant women, it’s crept up in price from 20 to 25, and now an extortionate 30 baht. That’s corn squabble for most people at about — .85 cents USD. After two months of lazy beach days and cheap exotic street food, I guess I’ve earned my corn. #cheapeats #thailife #streetfood #jomtienpattaya #jimbozpennypinchermichelintour
