The photo shows เส้นใหญ่ผัดขี้เมากุ้ง (Pronounce: Sen Yai Pad Kee Mao Koong) which I had at my favourite British Pub on Soi 7, in Pattaya, Thailand. The British Pub on Pattaya Soi 7 is the place where you can grab a pint of European beer (Let's say Guinness and then some) with your choice of authentic Thai food. Of course many kinds of European food and pub grubs are available. Pad Kee Mao (ผัดขี้เมา) is a kind of Thai food well known as Drunken Noodles. Literally, เส้นใหญ่ means Thai wide rice noodles, ผัด means still-fried, ขี้เมา means a person who is drunk, กุ้ง means prawns. Drunken Noodles is getting popular amongst Europeans, so you'll see สปาเก็ตตี้ผัดขี้เมา at some places in Thailand. In that case, the chef use spaghetti (Thai: สปาเก็ตตี้) instead of Thai noodles then they cook a special Drunken Noodles.
