EPIC Bangkok Street Fair, KASET FAIR With Over 1400 Vendors

Today I take you to an epic Bangkok street fair, Kaset Fair, with over 1400 vendors. This is a massive yearly street fair held at the Kasetsart University in Bangkok, Thailand. I will give you a full tour of each section in this fair. Join me as I try a variety of street food, check out all the different products and projects the students have presented, and give you a tour of all the different parts of this massive street fair. The variety of street food at this fair is staggering. At least half of all the stalls sell food, everything from drinks to alligator meat. This fair runs every year during the first week of February and is not to be missed if you enjoy street food, animals, plants and flowers, agriculture, fair games and just a general fun atmosphere. Kaset fair is my favorite of any of the street fairs I have been to in Thailand. Definitely better than most of the commercial night markets here in Bangkok. I highly recommend you visit fairs like this when traveling.

Hi Serg, I really enjoy your videos. I've been watching since your "First day in Bangkok" video came on my feed. Very nice, fun, informative content. I have to ask. How are you learning the language? Impressive. Other Expat videos I watch, are so focused on the phrase: "don't worry everyone speaks English here." If I'm NOT mistaken, your 1 year anniversary of living in Thailand is approaching?🌏🇹🇭 Have fun and Thanks for sharing!👍

[@LifewithSerg]

Thanks for your support! I just picked up a few words here and there. I’m far from where I should be with the Thai language considering April will be my 1 year anniversary.

[@chanwitseregon6044]

I love to watch KZbin videos of people in Thailand with you love❤

[@LifewithSerg]

Thank you.

[@premsiripupipat5381]

Love this vlog. I am an alumni of Kasetsart University and just went there on Friday evening. The place was packed but I really enjoyed it. I walked only the agricultural machinery, plants, and food section because I bought a lot of stuff and it was heavier and heavier. You are correct. Kasetsart means agriculture as it was the purpose of this university when the late King Rama 9 established it. Our country is mainly agriculture so we need to educate farmers and people in rural areas to do it correctly.

[@LifewithSerg]

I just missed you as I left right around 5 o’clock on Friday afternoon. Really enjoyed that fair, and I will definitely be back next year!

[@premsiripupipat5381]

This is a perfect example of why we love your videos and how you are different than others. It's great to see the Thai innovations and how they work with partners in the world. You made this very entertaining and great to watch. Very nicely done!

[@LifewithSerg]

Thanks Rob ! Once I re-watched it, I felt like I talked way too much during the video, but hey, we’re always her own worst critics. New motor bike tour starts tomorrow!

@@LifewithSerg Oh no way, your narration made the video way better. I think we all feel like you when watching your own videos but none of us thought that watching. Without your narration I would have been lost. Excited about your motorbike trip!

[@mytube9182]

Kaset means agriculture and Kasetsart means agricultural science. That's the name of the university. You can't be disappointed finding good foods in a university with such a name.

[@LifewithSerg]

Yes, I learned that after I went there. It was really a wonderful fair!

[@caragio]

I graduated from here. I used to walk the fair every year. Oh how I miss that time :-)

So good!

[@PREPFORIT]

I really like this festival/Fair. I am glad that some cash goes to the University ! That was very cool seeing the different Embassies represented. The Russian one looked good I remember a Russian babysitter I had wayyyy Back when I was a child. She would always make dumplings I think they were called "Pelmeni" and they were yummy !

[@LifewithSerg]

Yes! Pilmeni is correct. If you have any kind of international food store around you, you should be able to easily find them in the frozen section. They come with many different meat ingredients. Also, be sure to try the Vareniki, they tend to have sweets ingredients. I really should go do a video at a Russian restaurant here in Bangkok.

[@gp1449]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@louis20122]

Omg. I love these types of fairs. There are so much to explore

[@LifewithSerg]

It was incredible. I spent four hours there. I could’ve easily make this into a 30 minute video, as I recorded over an hour footage. There’s just so much there to see and do. I could recommend this enough to anyone who happens to be in Bangkok during the event

[@wmeesak]

Kasetsart literally means "knowledge of the land" and the university was established as the main agricultural place of learning in Thailand 80 years ago. Obviously, the university has expanded and diversified somewhat over the years with humanities programmes, social sciences, engineering and many more programmes. I'm glad you enjoyed Kaset fair. would have loved to run into you while you were at the fair.

[@LifewithSerg]

Thanks for explaining that. I guess I should’ve done a little research on the name lol. Really enjoyed my time there.

[@wmeesak]

@@LifewithSergif you've done the research, it wouldn't keep in line with the concept of of the channel "Lost with Serg", right? oops, just kidding mate.

Thank you, for taking us tour the Fair. I enjoy it, especially when you try to get the cute ducky.😂😂😂😂😂

[@LifewithSerg]

Oh that Ducky!! I finally figured out they were switching the darts. When they would let you trade and show you how to do it, they were using a dart that didn’t have metal in it, so that’s why I didn’t stick. So they were cheating at the carnival game, like it most carnivals around the world. Lol.

If you thought those Haas Avocados were huge, check out the Florida low fat Avocado. They dont taste as good but are twice the size of your palm. I didn't believe it when I first saw it after a coworker brought a few into the office from his recent visit from Florida. Now farmers there also developed an elongated version (up to 3 feet long) avocado which could cost up to USD$40 each.

[@LifewithSerg]

3 foot long avocado?! Wow!

[@richlandzee8686]

@Life with Serg - yea according to the report. It's called the long-neck avocado which has been available since 2019 but I haven't seen pictures of the 3-foot long version. Those must be $40 and the shorter ones $15. It looks like where you take one regular avocado, grab its stem from one end and stretch it out. 😏
