I use to live here for 5 months, about 800m from Sena Fest. The neighbours is nice and food is good with a morning market.

Hi Chon love your video I prefer local foods more than tourist version keep up the great work 👍

[@friendsfromthailandtravelguide]

Thank you! Will do!

[@rebeccachang54]

please keep taking more videos like these theme :local neighborhood ❤

[@PJ4Code]

I wish you also wrote the words you said to order so that we can order the same thing without hassles of language barrier. This is the kind of video that I want. The preferences of locals.

[@friendsfromthailandtravelguide]

Good idea 👍🏻. I will do it in the next VDO

[@juliedurlak]

Chon I like the videos of just you on your own not with others. It’s too distracting and annoying with the other girl, you are calmer and seem nice and friendly 😊

[@SanDiegoStar]

Thanks.

[@curiousboy2204]

I was actually in this area a few days ago when I visited bangkok... because I went to a shop that you walked by ... Hoy Tod Chaw lae :) Delicious !!

Thanks for showing us the local places with good food. I understand that there are also other good and cheap food understand further west of Thonburi. I would like to explore this side which is more authentic than the other touristy areas in downtown Bangkok. Recently, the air quality is not very good. Please take care.

[@Ptguan]

Hi Chon, thanks a lot for presenting many choices of food and delicacies of Bangkok of which I'm especially grateful since my friends and I are planning travelling there this May. By the way, if I'm staying in the Sathorn area, would it be better to book a tuk-tuk or a Grab Car to transfer my friends and I to a place about 20 minutes away from our hotel? Thank you in advance.

[@mahmood4036]

Hi Chon, I was wondering if you can tell me where to find good kitchen ware products in Bangkok.

[@jamjammy6165]

How do you say "take away" or "I'll sit here and eat" in thai?

[@joelphow6314]

[@maingoc4584]

Do those restaurants open at night?

[@raymondng18]

Thanks. Yes, we stayed in a hotel in the small road opposite Robinson near saphan thaksin station back in 2019 during Songkran, very localised vibe and went to bkk again last year and stayed in Siam Kempinski, too luxurious and totally extreme vibe. 😅. Watched your vlog on that too the old Chinatown

[@wongkelena]

Video 7.58 look like Asian Bean Curd,Soya Bean milk drink n You tiao. In Taiwan, know as dou jiang drink with fritters.

[@wangiwang3253]

Hi Chon, can i order food at this shop if i can't communicate in Thai language? While i saw in the video they were so busy, would they serve foreigners who don't speak Thai language?

[@mervdmer]

Please add map pin of the location

[@visions30]

Please take some time to rest!

[@RolandPer]

Noodle shop has English menu?

[@estellegregory2522]

try google translate or lens. Works sometimes, but at least will give you an idea of what you are ordering

[@blureader1164]

Chon, the problem that I had with the "very few tourist" places, is, it is difficult to communicate. Could you help us out with a how to order food video? For example, not understanding how to order an omelette on the street. How many choices to I get? What are those choices? All of the signs were in Thai. I ordered a seafood claypot "shabu" and the species of squid that came with it, did not taste good, and I ended up wasting it. Could I have asked for a substitute (of course, willing to paying an up charge)? Many foreigners cannot tell Thais from people from Cambodia, Myanmar, etc., in a busy restaurant, so when I wanted to tell the shop that I didn't want offal, blood, etc., some of the workers could not read the printed paper that I had prepared. So while I ate at many local spots, what I learned is, I judged by the food, regardless of customers. I went back to the grumpy auntie's omelette stand because the food was good, and after a few times, figured out the system. I saw more Thais than foreigners at Terminal 21 food court, and learned how to "save" a table from the Thais. It was all a great experience.

[@mysticking7991]

The patongo looks delicious as a quick snack. The noodle shop serves a decent portion and the best to finish the meal with a good coconut ice cream as desert. As the writing of the shop is in Thai language. Hopefully you can provide the google map address of the shop and easier for non locals to locate the shop. Ty

[@mysticking7991]

The staff managing most of the street food stalls n shops are really patient n hopefully they did not scold u for aiming the cameras at them in close up shot. If u do that in Singapore, I think the staff might shoo you away for interfering them preparing or serving food. Thanks for the video
