I've lived, studied and/or worked in SEAsia for 21 years and been to all its countries (save for Brunei) so I got a good sense of the region. For me, the problem with street food is two-fold. First, you are literally on the street which usually means noisy, densely packed and kinda dirtty. Two, it's ingredients are not the best or highest quality due to the fact that street food tends to cater to the lower-income crowd. There are exceptions, of course. You can sit off the street away from traffic, noise,etc. for not much more. Given a choice, that's what I choose.
