This is when science meets cooking.
Not many chefs don a welding mask before they enter the kitchen, but Sila Sutharat prefers to cook his chicken sunny side up.
Two hours south of Bangkok this 60-year-old vendor has found an ingenious way to offer his customers something a little different by harnessing the power of the sun.
Using a large wall of nearly 1,000 moveable mirrors -- a device he designed and built himself -- he focuses the sun's rays onto a row of marinated chickens, sizzling away under the intense heat.
