The best way to describe Thai Mu-gra-ta is Korean BBQ mixed with Chinese hotpot, accompanied with those signature Thai flavours we all love. I'm a BIG FAN of this

I'm Thai and am currently studying in Sydney, I'm also very interested in Chinese food and culture as my family has a very strong Chinese heritage. Love your content, Keep up the good work. If you want some more Thai food to review in Sydney, there's this place called Show Nuea Thai Street Food on George Street that serves northern Thai food. They have Thai clay hot pot there called Chim Chum where the soup is usually derived from herb, including many Thai dishes that people in Australia would likely have never heard of.

On a separate note, you're getting very close to another important milestone (200K) coming up which could come in time for your birthday this Sunday. I remember because of that great collaboration you had with a fellow great vlogger (Miriam) around a similar time last year because you both share the same birthday. Once you reach this milestone, may we add another zero to this figure somewhere down the track!! Can't wait to see the second series with yourself and your parents on the mainland!

I actually stumbled upon a mookata place hidden behind a market in Thailand with a couple of mates 5 years ago. It was the first time I had it and was amazed by the price we had to pay (190bht back then). It was all you can eat 6pm-10pm. Needless to say I went back there many times after that. Even brought some Thai friends there and they told me the price and quality (freshness) of the food was top notch. Last time I ate there was Dec 2019 and the place was jammed packed with locals and I had to pay 290bht for the same course. I actually regretted bringing my Thai friends there initially lol.

We spell it mookata in Singapore, and we have a shopping centre filled with all the southeast Asian restaurants, including tons of mookata restaurants. My Thai colleague brought our team there once, and according to him, that area is where you will find authentic mookata in Singapore (along with other southeast Asian food like Indonesian or Philippino food) I still prefer hotpot/steamboat, but mookata is a close second when it comes to "self-cooking" buffet. Also, the whole point of the bbq in the centre is to allow the juices and oil from cooking the food to flow into the soup, so the soup still gets the flavour like hotpot, but with a slight smoky flavour from the bbq.

We do moo kata at home in Melbourne and my wife likes to mix in some tom yum paste into the broth. I like to use a light chicken broth infused with lemongrass. First time I tried moo kata in Thailand some years back it was an old school outdoor place using charcoal. These days you can go to moo kata franchises in shopping centres which give you set menus and a more sanitised experience which is better for the family but I prefer the rustic old style charcoal moo kata restaurants that are open air. There is a moo kata restaurant on Bourke Street in Melbourne, haven't tried it yet but I will soon 🤤

Since our country is multi-racial/multi-cultural, we are really accepting on new culture and things, especially when it comes to food.
