That's Hoytod (หอยทอด), a fried mussels dish that is common in Thailand. You can search it in Thai to look more into it!
The Thai word to it is: หอยทอด

[KatchAFlick]

This is actually a Thai dish called hoy tod (literally means “fried mussels”). It’s a common Thai street food dish that consists of shucked mussels fried in thin batter and eggs with beansprouts and scallions… popular among the Thai-Chinese community (since it originated with Chinese immigrants to Thailand decades ago). It’s delicious!!!

It’s amazing how we can say “internet, help!” And people from all over the world and different cultures will come to share their history and knowledge with you ❤ even people who share that their countries have similar things. It’s kinda cool. ❤

It looks similar to Oh chien, something we eat in Malaysia. It’s delicious and highly addictive! So cool to see you try it

[SakuraExpresso]

MY PEOPLE! I'm so happy you finally tried some Laotian food! 🥰

[anniecarpenter]

omg that’s my favorite food of all time. hoytod from thailand, it is genuinely so scrumptious

[Ooilei]

It's O-luah (蠔烙), it's a Chinese Teochew dish popular in Thailand. It's sold by Chinese food vendors all over Thailand and is called Hoi Thot in Thai, but it is usually called by it's original Chinese name O-luah as well

Love this dish! It’s called Hoy tod in Thai. My uncle has made it for me and then I learned to make it myself. So yummy. There’s a lot of similarities in Asian cuisine, all very tasty 😋

[MichellaneousMe]

Omg Laos food is so good and underrated!!!

[AANBY]

It’s rare to see lao stuff on youtube. I get excited every time it comes across my feed.

I've had it in Saigon too Lisa.. made with oysters as it was originally made from my Chinese ancestors.😊

I’ve had this dish before at a Thai restaurant and did remind of banh xeo. I’ve had banh xeo many times before.

I haven't gotten one of your shorts in a long while, but I'm happy to see one of my main inspirations for getting into cooking again ❤❤

[blistertooth]

I’m going off the assumption that OP already knows this but in case anyone wants to look hoy tod up or make it at home, that sauce they used is Golden Mountain Seasoning Sauce specifically. Which has a soy sauce base but also has MSG, sugar and a more complex depth of flavor. It’s really good, and used in a lot of Thai cooking!

Its swedish street food called fiskarens sats, its popular in the southern parts of sweden near the ocean

[memecultivator]

There’s smth similar to that in Malaysia (I’m not from malay and laos so cmiiw), and it’s also called fried muscles. It’s called that bc the supposed star of the dish is the muscles. And instead of deep frying it, it’s just fried like what u see, topped with bean sprouts too. But the ones I usually see only have muscles and no other seafood, and also a lot more muscles.

I unfortunately don’t have an answer for this but it wont stop me from getting hungry 🤤🤤
