One night in Bangkok

Part 2 Food – Chinese Food in Thailand

Ok now let's talk about my favorite "Chinese Food in Thailand".

Actually when visit Thailand I believe "Tom Yam Kung" is the first thing that you should try, no doubt! Other Thai food as mentioned by my previous post should not be missed out too. However my favorite is still "Chinese Food in Thailand"

Now why did I keep mentioning this "Chinese Food in Thailand". Because you will find those Chinese Food there very different from what we have here. Maybe the Thai Chinese have had after long years create their own ingredient and cooking style hence this created a new range which I regard as "Chinese Food in Thailand".

However you might also be surprise that some of the cook is actually from the PRC and Hong Kong. Now let me start off with those within the Ratchadapisek area since I have recommended for all of you to put up there.

Kwong Seafood 光海鲜

Walk out from the Palazzo Hotel right opposite your Hotel there is a restaurant that open till midnight. The name of the restaurant is "Kwong Seafood". You will see fresh seafood displayed in front of the shop and for you to choose. Now your next question is what is GOOD? Well generally your focus here should be on those fresh seafood and probably some crabs. Try their fried rice it is great however I will not recommend you to try their shark fins soup. There is a better place to go.

Hing Restaurant 兴酒家

This restaurant is situated in the inner Soi(small lane/lorong) area which is not far from the hotel too. Now get back to the Pallazo Hotel as the center point again. Now walk out from the Hotel to the Main Road turn right. You right hand side is the Emerald Hotel. Walk straight till you reach the Dental Hospital (white colour building-hope they have yet to change to any colours) immediately after the dental hospital turn right walk straight you will then see the Hing restaurant on your left hand side. So what is good there?

This time you should try their shark fins soup or for those who think having shark fins soup is a sin then try their fish maw soup. Now don't be stingy get the best as they have different price category. They serve one of the best try it. Then what else? There is one special dish here which is the fish maw fried with prawn. The best fish maw I have ever tried before. Still other you should order other type of sea food and before I forget tries those Oyster fried with egg. This is similar to our Penang friend Oyster but Thai Fried oyster with egg is much much better. Trust me after a bowl of sharks fins or the fish maw soup it is enough to keep your stomach at work. It is real quality.

Shan Dong Restaurant @ Robinson

After the Dental Hospital walk straight you will then see Carrefour then after Carrefour you will see Robinson. There are many restaurants in front of the Robinson. There is one Chinese restaurant beside Swensens. Try it. Try their mutton, mushroom, chicken soup and eggplant.

Open Air porridge stall

Now this is the best place for supper, well they serve dinner too. But this is always the place to go for supper light supper. Well in Bangkok, if you are back to the hotel b4 12 you are wasting your time in Bangkok. Now where to find the place? Remember the Dental Hospital that lead your way to Hing ? Instead of turning right to Hing cross over to the other side of the road you will see the open air place which I am sure there are lot of people enjoying the mail there. For those TeoChew porridge lovers you will certainly know what to do order.

Generally everything there is good and prices are affordable. You can ask them for the menu and try those foods that you have not seen in other places. Explore while you are there you will not regret.

Well the next post I shall introduce you to places outside Ratchadapisek. It is too bored to talk about Ratchadapisek. Stay tune
