Bangkok 2018- Day 3 & 4

Day 3

Although hostel provide breakfast every day but i only ate once, there are so many choice here in BKK. Initially wanted to take bus directly to Yaowarat but change to take MRT to Hua Lampung instead.

Wat Traimir

Finally tried this popular Kway Chap.

50thb (small)
Very normal except the roast pork is pretty good

This look good but too full to try.

Walked to my favourite fish maw soup.
Just outside Tesco in Yaowarat, tuck in a street from the main yaowarat street.

Sampeng Market
Tucked in the small street, mostly suveniour, fabric and hair accessories.
Did not see clothings, very long street.

ok, lost my way and managed to walk away the crowd.

Found this old time cafe, 益生老店。
All the customers are mainly 60year old onwards except me:)

Their tea (25thb) and custard toast (30thb) are pretty good too

Opposite this street are the chinese market where you can find fish maw, dried shrimps etc..

Too full to try this in the market.

Fish maw are pretty good price but the dried shrimps seem more expensive than SG.
Bot 180g dried shrimps for 180thb and 5 big piece of fish maw for 250thb.

Walked another 5mins to Rajchawongse Pier
Fast ferry 15thb back to Saphan Pier, took less than 10 mins.

Took BTS to Ekkamai from Saphan (44thb), fromt here i get a grab bike to Wattana Panich (36thb).

The beef broth is really good, I had the first bowl of mixed beef including tendons.
Ordered the second bowl iwth only beef balls and beef slices. The beef is tenderised, soft and smooth. Total 275thb including a drink.

The location is not accessible by train, so got to take grab bike back to BTS and took BTS to Siam.

To avoid the heavy traffic, this time round I took BTS (44thb) and bus (30thb) to airport.
From Sala Daeng to Mochit station, exit 3 and walk down the stairs will see this bus stop.
