Cheap fresh seafood in BKK?

[still_shameless]

I'm heading to Bangkok in August and I've heard that the seafood stalls in Soi 7 are gone.

 

I had so many great meals there.

 

Is there anywhere else in Bangkok that comes close in terms of price and quality?

I asked basically the same question in a different thread, someone mentioned the corner of Soi 3. I'd love to hear of some more areas though. Eating great seafood is definitely on my list of things to do! ;P

Soi 3 was mentioned but not for seafood unfortunately.

 

I will do my own research I guess and share whatever I find.

Seafood is not as easily available now as more than 75% of the fishing vessels are stuck in port and not going out to sea due to some idiotic ruling by the government with regards to some licensing issues (some say the pressure is coming from IUU on the Thai Government)

The fishery ports are idle most of the time and workers have turn them into mini casinos to pass the time.

Many other workers in related industries are being let go and become jobless.

In soi 7/1 is a small seafood restaurant. They had a place in soi 7 before its was demolished. Good food and good for people watching

there are usually some food stalls/carts on Soi 11 and a few of them specialize in seafood.  decent value and good food as well.

I recently ate at a few of the seafood carts on soi 11 and was pleasantly surprised.
