Re: Eating in Bangkok

Just in case any of you guys want to eat good "Thai home-styled cooking" at affordable prices, one of my favourites is the "Samyen" market close to Chulalongkorn University.

It should be on most of the tourist maps.

The stalls are upstairs and they have very good local Chinese Thai cooking with all sorts of "dead seafood, meat, veg etc etc. There are also a few live-seafood stalls but we focus on value for money and good taste rather than the up-market "live-seafood" variety.

The market is downstairs and the foodstalls are upstairs and a lot of Chulalongkorn University Students go there to eat simple "western dishes" too! Mostly girls and guys in small groups and couples and of course if you are lucky, small groups of girls. Never know what fish you find in this place!
