  2. 1.Wat Pho (reclining Buddha) and combined with Wat Arun which you can access by boat, it will take you about the first half of the say to complete. Not hard or taxing.

    2. Khlong river tour, rice barge river tour.
    3. Grand Palace, wear pants, respect.

    4. Chatuchak Market. http://www.chatuchak.org/

    5. Food  - noodle boat alley, Victory monument. 25 baht per bowl, and sometimes less.

    6. Asiatique Bangkok http://www.thaiasiatique.com/index.php/en

    7. China Town – Sapan Lek markets. (the iron bridge markets are gone but the clothiers markets are still there as well as many other market style things)

    8. Pantip plaza (electronics heaven)

    9. Lumpuni park

    10. MBK, shopping and food courts, there’s two. Food island food court is great. Wednesday nights at 6pm they do a Mua Thai exhibition fights, pretty good always draws a crowd, out the from of Tokyo department store and you can watch from the BTS skybridge.

  3. I have only stayed on Soi's 11 and 13 across 4 visits to BKK, so my response is based on the food available there.

    On my first visit, at check-in, I was encouraged by the hotel staff to try the street food along Soi 11. They reassured me it was fine. So I went for it. And to date I have had no issues at all. 
    I guess given the reliance on tourists in that particular area the food must be made to a certain standard to ensure no loss of revenue for the hoteliers as well as local businesses. 

    As a result every chance I get I eat as the locals do. Watching a group of locals mass around a particular stall is a good sign. 

  4. I thought this was an urban myth but turns out it's real...

    Was having dinner with a BM and two Isaan gals on my last trip, watched these ladies scarf a plate of Isaan style stir fried vegetables with chili.
    Oh and did I mention chili? Me and my buddy took a bite each and I was like Fuck that!. These two broads finished the entire plate, afterwards even they have their heads down for count, panting, with serious mouth burn. Anyway, I must have forgotten about the dish, because later when she's giving me a BBBJ...man that shit burnt my knob end.  :P  :D 

    It messed me up so much so that the next day I had trouble knocking one out with a masseuse, I got there eventually, but that shit just fucken hurt too much to enjoy. :o  
    Beware the chili.  :ph34r:
