The next time you visit Bangkok, make time for pleasures of the culinary kind.
The best thing about Bangkok isn’t that the people are always smiling; it’s that they are always eating. They’re at it everywhere, huddled over a bowl of duck noodles in Jatujak Market, chewing on beef satay on street corners, or sitting down to stir-fried squid and rice almost as soon as you’ve paid up and left a restaurant. This is a city whose chemists stock salmon-skin wafers, whose general stores offer steamed pork buns and whose street carts will serve you a proper meal – soup, mains, dessert, fruit, drinks and all – without ever scrimping on quality or quantity. There’s more to Bangkok dining than basil-flecked green curry in touristy Patpong. Here are some recommendations for your next trip.
