You Won’t Believe You Can Find This Food in Asia!
You will not believe you’re in Bangkok, Thailand! Welcome to Petra Restaurant (مطعم اليمني ابو دبه), a legendary 35-year culinary institution located right on Bangkok’s famous Arab Street. Known across Southeast Asia for serving the absolute best Yemeni food in Bangkok, this place is an absolute must-visit for any food lover.
In this video, I’m teaming up with my friend Fahad Albishri @Fahad.Albishri to take on an epic Middle Eastern feast. We got exclusive behind-the-scenes kitchen access to see exactly how they prepare their iconic, melt-in-your-mouth traditional Yemeni Mandi.
We also dive into their famous, bubbling Yemeni stews—featuring one secret ingredient that makes them completely unique—and we get to sit down with a true legend, Abu Dabbah, whose reputation stretches across the entire Arab world!

I always thought it was weird that the Arab area in Bangkok is in Nana next to the red light area. Maybe it actually makes sense. 🤣
Anyways the food looks great.
Dang I'm early
Hi, Good evening
من كان يصدق أن أشهى وأقوى نكهات المطبخ اليمني الأصيل موجودة في قلب بانكوك! 🇾🇪✨
لقطة رمي خبز الملوح في التنور عند [07:07] هي إبداع حقيقي وفن بحد ذاته، أما طريقة قفل حفرة المندي بالعجين عند [04:54] للحفاظ على النكهة والتدخين تبين سر العراقة لهذا المطعم الممتد لأكثر من 35 سنة.
تحية من القلب للقائمين على مطعم البتراء، ولفريق العمل، وللأسطورة (أبو دهمش) على كرم الضيافة العربي الذي شرفنا في تايلاند. تجربة المندي والسبايا واللحم الطري جعلتنا نشعر وكأننا في بيوتنا فعلاً. 👏🔥
Jesus Christ is Lord.
This upload was definitely worth watching.
Well, Yemeni is part of Asia and why not finding them In Thailand😃

It seems like, most of the Indian foods are actually- Arab and Persian foods.

It’s absolutely the best middle eastern restauramnt in the area. We lived around the corner for 10 years and ate there, or brought food home from there, almost every week. The old boss is hilarious and VERY sociable. I still go there whenever I am nearby – but, these days, eat a bit less than Mark and Fahad!
Yum!
Wonderful ❤

I was just watching the Qatar video from 1 year ago and Fahad is back😂😂
