We just found some very important travel information from a blog about Asia, so decided to sum up them here.

Lots of food on the street between cost between $5 to $10 per plate and in a restaurant between $15 and $30 a plate. Most dishes are based on curry, coconut milk, lots of rice, noodles, pepper and spices. On the islands, prices are a bit more expensive.
