My First Day in Thailand Exploring Neighborhoods and Street Food in Bangkok

My first day in Thailand exploring neighborhoods and street food in Bangkok. Well it's finally here, my first day exploring Bangkok Thailand. Join me as I take you on a (mis)guided tour on my first day in this crazy city. I explore food in Bangkok as well as some local neighborhoods and markets. I risk my life on a motorbike taxi. Taking the BTS to On Nut was a good way for me to check out a potential area to move to. Thai street food Thailand is amazing. Let's explore the street.

Say what...? We would have to wear a mask walking down the street...? ...And that "meat product" you ate at 8:10 was a local street delicatessen, pig balls...

[@LifewithSerg]

Thailand still has mask restrictions in place. Definitely indoors. It’s getting more relaxed outside and they are no longer fining people for not wearing one outside. You could walk around with the mask pulled down, and I see lots of Westerners that walk around with no masks at all.

Years back I arrived in Bangkok on a one year backpacking tour and ended staying there 5 years. It is always fun watching newcomers see it now. Enjoy! It is a fun town and I can see you are taking advantage of all the food.

I first came to Thailand in 2012, and it instantly stole my heart with the culture, the people and the food. I’m so happy to be back here and two now actually live in Thailand. Sounds like you had a great adventure!

Because the title says “first day in Thailand exploring neighborhoods and street food in Bangkok”. When I was here 10 years ago I was here on vacation and I did not go around exploring neighborhoods. Hope that clears things up Mark.

I have lived in Thailand from 2014 to 2022...My condo is around Onnut station... oh no..... And i moved to Japan now in March 2022. In the last month, I was so missing Thailand.. everything good in Thailand and those good memories... Thank you for the video that solved some of my mental issues that I really wanna go back but am afraid of regretting going back to Thailand... watching these videos are enough for me to conquer my nostalgia for now.

I am in a new place that I’m not familiar with, and for you going to Japan might be very similar. We’re both thinking of the comforts and things we miss about our old homes. Let’s focus on what is ahead of us, not what is behind us. I wish you the very best of everything in your new life in Japan!

How easily we forget. The lack of trash cans is due to paranoid politicians. They were removed and haven't been replaced because of one bomb in a trash bin many years ago! BMA policy.

(Yum-pu-maa) 15:30 That noodle is "Boat noodle" which used to be sold on the small boat, that 's why they are sold in the small portion.

That meat balls you ate. It's called Sai Krok Isaan, or Northeastern Thai sausage. It is made out of fermented minced pork and rice. very tasty and it's my favorite snack.

You’re like the fifth or six person that’s told me about Banjakitti park. I definitely find to go check it out as it looks really cool. Yeah that food quarter terminal 21 is ridiculously cheap. I’ve actually had quite a few lunches over there because it’s only a two minute walk from my current location. I’m gonna have to swing down to On Nut and check it out one more time.

Great. I love Bangkok. Was there several times as a student as I could not afford anything else. Do you need some recommendations? For example, I loved the rides on the river bus boats. They are super loud as noise distracts the bad ghosts. When I had a super loud bus boat, I went all the way to the end station. You have a beautiful view and action. It is amazing how the drivers slam the boat just with whistle signals to the pier. Everybody just jumps on land or on the boat and then full throttle ahead... 🤣👍 Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪

Not just fish intestines Thai people call anchovies "Pla Sai Ton", which means fishgut, but it's actually anchovies marinated with salt. and then distilled into fish sauce But fermenting only fish offal, it is a southern Thai dish known as Kaeng Tai Pla and Budu sauce. And fermented fish in isaan is call Plaraa😁😁🙏🙏

[@LifewithSerg]

That’s some great information! I had no idea about the anchovies. I’ve actually had Thai food in America where they used Plara.

[@TravelwithMark]

@@nuttsrisukplung1318 Hi Nutt, so fish gut plus the rest of the fish. Right? :-) Please don't get me wrong. Fish sauce is a magic elixir used by the Romans (aka "garam") and many others. I've loved cooking with it for many years. Its fantastic.

Actually, you can also use your Visa card for touch and go for BTS and MRT. Have fun and welcome to Bangkok

[@LifewithSerg]

Ahh good to know! Thanks!

[@sheilah8494]

Have a great day, every day. I heard , it’s so bad to go there in April. I did go in March years ago and got black out from the heat and humidity. Anyway, enjoy your adventure 😊.BTS is a good idea and safer.

[@LifewithSerg]

Yeah I guess the good thing about coming here in the hottest month of the year, is I’m forced to just endure it and get it over with. Honestly, it has not been nearly as bad as I remember it 10 years ago.

[@waranyasamlarn4793]

Really enjoy watching your video. Can’t wait for the next one!

[@LifewithSerg]

I am so happy that you enjoyed it! I should have the next one out in a couple of days. Stay tuned!

[@pearlypola]

Try to find apartment or Condomenium in Ratchada Road.It's have a lot of department and condomenium. It's convenient with MRT, a lot of departmentstore and market.

[@LifewithSerg]

I’m pretty happy with where I live right now. When my lease expires at the end of the year, I might move to a different area.

[@LuckyCatAdventures]

👍great video, looks like your having fun...... i like the Moto GP start 😂

[@LifewithSerg]

Yeah I think one of my top two favorite/hilarious things to notice here are the MotoGP starts, and all the wires up above.

Hello Welcome to South East Asia .. / Bangkok Thailand .. to experience the summer , and know more about South East Asian , culture specific Thai Culture ..

[@LifewithSerg]

Thank you very much for the warm welcome. Happy to be here.

[@jeans4484]

1:54 Easy, it's private property, they don't want you to walk in their area, so they make that decorative structure for the building. They need to have overpass stair and utility pole there in a limited space, so it's like that.

[@LifewithSerg]

Yes I understand that. I’m just enjoying all the different architectural designs here.

[@liveisnotbeautiful]

Next time please try noodle with blood, it's delicious. Fact: Boat noodles are a favorite dish in Thailand. They're made with loads of herbs and spices, plenty of pork, and a secret ingredient: pig's blood. The blood is used to thicken the broth, but it also adds a rich, umami-like flavor to the dish.

[@LifewithSerg]

I just tried blood cubes for the first time a couple days ago. I will definitely try the boat noodles with blood next time.

[@antoniii.a]

Nice choices of street food, those are what we actually eat here in Bangkok 😀

[@LifewithSerg]

I just love trying random street food here.

[@SheridanDevon]

You definitely eat rolls with seafood dipping sauce, and you eat crab salad. I'm drooling. lol

[@LifewithSerg]

I love the salad rolls. The crab salad was just OK.

[@random1883]

Try Best Beef on Sukhumvit @ On Nut for All-You-Can Eat. Cheap too.

[@LifewithSerg]

Ooooh. I will definitely go give that a try!

[@lofiben]

@8:13 I think you ate Isan Sausage (ไส้กรอกอีสาน) or Northeastern Thai Sausage. It's one of my favorite Thai foods. I can't wait to get some too next month when I go visit the relatives!

[@LifewithSerg]

Ahaaa. Ok thanks for shedding Some light on that crew I’m really enjoying just buying random things from street vendors and trying them. I hope you have a wonderful trip to see your family.

[@lofiben]

@@LifewithSerg No problem! That's the fun of it trying it out. Thank you! It's been a hot minute since I went so I'm very excited. Keep up the good work!

[@jomontanee]

@@lofiben I am so craving!! Serg tortures me do bad cause it is my diet week!!!

[@sweeta4237]

That noodle, you have to try the blood version. I know it sounds weird but it is the famous menu for that kind of noodle ( boat noodle). 😊

[@LifewithSerg]

I actually tried it last night. Also tried blood cubes. It was OK.

[@55nimrod55]

Great video Serg. The only negative, I have the1980's one-hit wonder by Murray Head, "One Night In Bangkok" stuck in my head!!

[@LifewithSerg]

Thanks man! Ha ha ha. Yes that song. Lol. What’s really interesting about that song, is that most people don’t realize that it’s all about chess. Once you listen to the lyrics, you can clearly see that he’s singing about chess.

[@komteera7494]

Great video first day. Surely, you will soon explore area along old china town and Chaopraya River. The boat ride along the river is super including many heritages to see and visit. (^_^) Welcome to Thailand!... enjoy&glad you love Thailand. All very best! (^_^)

[@LifewithSerg]

Thank you very much for the warm welcome! Yes, there are so many places that I want to explore around Bangkok and then so many other provinces. I am excited to see new things every day.
