8 Great Places to Eat in Bangkok, Whatever Your Budget Brought To You By
Introduction Bangkok is home to an impressive array of restaurants, cafes and stalls and the sprawling Thai capital is a fantastic place to treat your taste buds to the bold flavours that characterise Thai food.
Banglamphu Market Marketplaces of Banglamphu and Suan Luan to some of the many internationally-renowned restaurants, Globehunters have tracked down some of Bangkok’s tastiest eateries, whatever your budget may be.
Banglamphu Banglamphu is just a short stroll from the backpacker magnet that is Khao San Road and is certainly one of the best places to eat street food in Bangkok. Sausages aren’t usually associated with Thai food but the tasty saikrokIsaan – made of fermented rice and pork.
SuanLuang Market In Chinatown (aka Yaowarat) you’ll find street stalls serving all manner of delicious Chinese food including omelettes, dumplings and noodles. SuanLuang Market behind Chulalongkorn University is home to all sorts of interesting food stalls.
Nam kaengsai desserts For some traditional desserts try some colourful Nam kaengsai. For a more savoury dish, try Jok – a comforting bowl of rice porridge often served with minced pork balls and a raw egg – from JokSamyan.
Coffee House The 24 hour Coffee House in Ekamai comes highly recommended for its delicious yet affordable food. There is a charmingly decorated outdoor garden and live music throughout the week. The fact that it has multiple iMacs with internet access is a nice bonus, especially for backpackers.
Mai Kaidee Market Mai Kaidee’s serves up the finest in fresh vegetarian and vegan food. Originally found just behind Burger King in Khao San Road, Bangkok’s two Mai Kaidee’s are now located in Samsen Road and Tanao Road in Banglamphu. The food is reasonably priced - they even offer cooking classes and have their own popular cook books.
Bo.lan Restaurant Bo.lan in Sukhumvit has an extensive menu of imaginative Thai cuisine including mouth-watering curries and stir fries; it has been consistently recognised as one of the best places to eat in Bangkok for many years. Dishes start a decidedly pricey 450 baht but this is no surprise from a restaurant that has attracted favourable press from the likes of CNN and The New York Times.
Metropolitan Hotel Nahm, found on the ground floor of the Metropolitan Hotel on Sathorn Road, is known as one of the finest restaurants in the world. Diners are treated to creative amuse bouches and canapés as a precursor to some of the finest Thai cuisine available.
