    Tuk Tuk is the most expensive way to travel in Bangkok and yet still cheaper than anything in the UK. Elephant pants are only ever in fashion in Thailand, but they really are in fashion there, even the locals wear them. It's not safe to talk about the royal family in Thailand, it can end up with you in prison. In fact even giving a bad review on a business in Thailand can get you in big trouble. They don't respond to criticism well. £28 for a hostel is ridiculous, they saw you coming, you can get hotels for that. Also come to Malaysia. I have been here since 2009, never going back to the UK.

      He didn't though. He overpaid on a bunch of crap and rubbish food. You could go out in a Northern town in GB, get 3 meals and get smashed for £100 and probably still have change in the morning. Thailand is not really cheap anymore, especially booze unless you get out in the country.

    Something to note; just because something in Thailand is not as cheap as street food does not mean it is exclusively targeting travelers. Thailand has one of the highest wealth disparities in the world, meaning there are hundreds of thousands of millionaires that live alongside both the middle class and working class. So "premium" products are also targeting locals, just the wealthier ones.

    @ageoflove1980 Місяць тому

    This sounds silly but I really like the food courts in the large supermarkets around Bangkok. You can actually get pretty authentic food there and there are loads of different counters with different styles of food. Plus airco of course which can be a godsent. Usually a full meal is no more than 2 quid and youll be sitting amongst the Thais themselves because tourists usually dont go to a "mere" supermarket for dinner. That also means you wont get food thats made for tourists so not overly sweet. And with all the options available its just a joy to check out all the stalls before deciding what to order.
    A great-in between when you dont want to eat tourist food and pay tourist prices but the streetfood stalls are perhaps a bit too adveturous. And streetfood can be really hit or miss in my opinion. You kind of have to know the good ones because your delicate Western digestive system might disagree with some of them, causing you to become very intimite with your hotel bathroom for a couple of days.
    It might not be the most scenic but when you had a busy day in the Thai heat just hanging around a food court like that can be very relaxing. They usually have some counters that serve specialty drinks like all sorts of juices and tea's as well, so yeah, try it. Just any large supermarket like Big C or Lotus will have one, and the Central shopping malls that are all over the place are also good for that. Nice and very budget friendy place to hang out for a while. Just a solid price/quality balance so you cant go wrong. I really like the one right in the middle of things in the Central mall near the Siam BTS station. Its on the top floor all the way in the back behind the supermarket. Amazing place for food.
    Also, just dont go to Khao San Road... It used to be a cool backpacker scene but right now its just terrible... Just overprices touristy stuff. If you want to party try the Sukhumvit area.
