The photo shows one the very popular Thai food Pad Pak Boong Fai Daeng (Thai: ผัดผักบุ้งไฟแดง). It's often shortly called Pad Pak Boong, Thai: ผัดผักบุ้ง). This is so yummy. It's kind of like a stir-fried water morning glory. Pad (Thai: ผัด) means stir-fried, Pak (Thai: ผัก) means vegetable, so in Thailand Pad Pak blah-blah-blah means stir-fried vegetable. Also, Fai (Thai: ไฟ) means fire, Daeng (Thai: แดง) means red, so Pad Pak Boong Fai Daeng means stir-fry vegetable on a high heat. I took this picture at a cozy restaurant near Patpong (Thai: พัฒน์พงศ์). Patpong is a street where the place is known as a famous nightlife district in Bangkok, Thailand.
