Jok (Thai rice soup) โจ๊ก
(As opposite to "Katom", "Jok" is thicker rice soup).

I have just tried "Jok" soup in a small Thai shop on Thanni Road, nice soup,with ginger,egg,some pork meat inside. nice and healthy for those of you who like soups I recommend as its clean and tasty.
25 Baht. Full options. (pork+egg inside).

Ask your girlfriend/wife, she'll know, at first it might look like not too inviting (I called it "jail food" at first  ), but for some reason it comes as good combination for a light meal.
Its not for everyone,thats for sure..

Try.

I often eat this for breakfast in Thailand, tastes good and doesn't fill you up too much.

Right, but for me, I can't be really full from it as its too light, I need MEAT

meat is good but sometimes you just want to fill the stomach for a budget price, and if the wify is eating it, I eat also, good before after or between beers.

I like it too.

More often than not, kow tom and jok are looked upon as comfort food....also akin to the "chicken soup" cure for when you're under the weather. Personally, I find kow tom/katom much more desirable as a texture.....

This is the spoken "jok":

I prefer "Kao Tom" ( Rice soup) because there are still pieces of rice, but "joke" is more like really soup.
Anyway, "joke" will be my 2nd choice.
