Pro Tip:

Try not to fill yourself up in just one place. The key to enjoying the street food is to snack a little at one spot and move on to the next.

Bangkok’s Chinatown is filled with a wide variety of street food dishes. From dim sums, flat noodles, oyster omelettes to coconut ice cream, fruits, and desserts.

 

2. Chatuchak Weekend Market

Being the largest market in Asia, it can become very difficult to find your way through. The market is filled with a number of food stalls projecting aromas of different food and drink items.

 

3. Asiatique Riverfront

The Asiatique Riverfront is one of the most aesthetic looking night markets, with food and drink stalls, and a view of the riverside.

Ps. It’s also a great place for souvenir shopping.

 

4. Prachak Roasted Duck

When you think Bangkok, you think of the aromatic street food, and when you think street food, you think Prachak Roasted Duck!
So, while making your itinerary for Bangkok, make sure to include this place so you don’t miss out on it. The locals of Bangkok swear by this to be the best roast duck in town.

 

5. Roong Rueng Tom Yum Pork Noodles

Located in Phrom Phong, a posh residential area, having high-end stores, Roong Rueng is a local street food stall serving the best Tom Yum Pork noodles, at the cheapest price just like the other items on their menu.

 

And, while you’re in Thailand, make a note of going island hopping to the make of your experience!
