BKK zoo has a price for Thai's (100 baht adult) and a price for foreigners (150 baht adult). Great news is the price for foreigners is still mad cheap. Definitely check it out. But I don’t recommend walking because the zoo itself involves a lot of walking and it’s not especially near anywhere. The bus had quit running due to a governmental event near by so we ended up walking a looooong way after we were done at the zoo. I recommend catching a tuktuk or use grab to get a taxi etc to get you where you need to go.

Best Beef is a crazy place. It’s reminds me of Korean BBQ how you kind of cook the food at your table, but it’s unlimited like a buffet, yet you don’t have to get up for more food…. You can pay one price for the food, and another price includes all you can drink soda, or beer along with the food for two hours. You can get different cuts of beef, pork, chicken, seafood and various sauces. You can also get vegetables and random sides like chicken fingers or mac and cheese? We stuck with the meats, veggies,and beer. It was outside and it was hot~ imagine: a ton of tables with a ton of people, and a ton of little fires heating the food. Still it was a good experience. Just be on the watch for grease splatters!

Try some local candies when you travel. I grabbed these Bon o Bon candies. Cute wrapping. One had peanut butter filling and one had chocolate filling. The filling was surrounded by a light crisp layer and then dipped in chocolate.

Fresh juice is something you should enjoy while in Thailand. In the BTS station you'd an find tiny bottles like these with a variety of flavors.
Not far from On Nut BTS is another stop with an eating square called the W district. We decided to check it out.
Of course you must visit JJ market while in BKK. Take BTS to Mo Chit and follow the crowds to the market on the weekends.
Around Bangkok you will see a site like this: These beauties (called Pla Pao) are fish that have been salted and stuffed with fresh herbs. (lemongrass, anyone!?) If you like fish, you must buy one. For about $5 you can get a whole prepared fish and it will be the most delicious, moist, perfectly cooked fish of your life! The seafood sauce that comes with it is also delicious and I believe there were some herbs and glass type noodles that accompanied it as well.
Khanom Buang -ขนมเบื้อง- is another Thai street food/ street snack made with thin pancakes stuffed with almost a merengue and topped with orange colored coconut shreds. They look like tacos, but they are not! They are cheap and a delicious treat you must try! Some are mini and bite sized and some are huge like a normal taco size.

If you’ve been wanting to go to a Cat Cafe, Bangkok has a few you can check out! One is called Caturday Cafe. You may have to wait outside for a while because there is a limit to how many people they let in at once. You put your name on a list when you arrive. Once you get inside you can order from the menu and play with the cats! You can also get them special treats. Hope you enjoy the slide show of what we ate and some of the cute cats hanging out at the cafe.
I thought this was a really fun experience and the cats seemed to be very well cared for! More From Thailand: |
