The dough is called Patongo (pa-tong-go). It's everywhere in Thailand but Thais normally dip this in the sweetened condensed milk. The green dipping sauce is a pandan coconut custard aka Song-kha-ya. Check out a place called "Mont Nom Sod" in the old town area, it's probably most popular among the Thai for songkhaya.
The donuts are called Pa Tong Ko and the dipping sauce is a coconut custard with pandan leaf which makes it that green colour and the stall is called Pa Tong Go Savoey
The area you did your shopping is called Sum Peng. The place you had your lunch is called Khlong Ong Ang .Brown curd thing called Lueat Pet(duck blood curd). There are not only duck blood curd ,chicken and pork blood curd are also common to find in noodle dishes. .The Dragon dance is a Chinese greeting for The Chinese new year, to come on the 3rd of February.The small sweet pastry called Khanom Pia (chinese pastry bun) with soybean filler.The photo you took a advertising board before buying chinese pastry bun with a thumb up picture .That shop has history back to 76 years (est 1954) selling pepper band Tra Mue number 1.You can find their pepper on most street food tables.
Wow! Thank you so much for all of the information. You know a LOT about Chinatown! Thanks again for the info, especially the part about the thumb up sign. Do you live in Bangkok?
@@OnePackWanderersYes, I am Thai ,living in Bangkok . Nice to know you and welcome to Thailand (or Siam the name previously known as .Perhaps you have seen the film name The King and I . Watch it before go to see The Grand Palace) One recommendation from me is to see the real solid gold buddha statue with a weight of 5.5 tonnes of gold( estimated to be worth 250 million dollars).in Wat Traimit, Samphanthawong, Bangkok. You will be wow !
You may change from BTS to MRT at the Asoke station, then get off at Wat Mangkon station (that's the Chinatown) The best time for enjoying the street food starts from the evening. Have a great time❤️☺️
There are 3 types of blood jelly in Thailand : 1. Pork blood - Mostly found in vegetable soup or a random noodle. Pretty tasteless. 2. Chicken blood - Mostly found in Khao Man Kai (chicken rice). Pretty tasteless. 3. Duck blood - Mostly accompany with steamed duck (also duck noodle). Probably the most salty one.
Glad to see you went to the shrine, then got those donuts. I'm not sure if you have seen it or not, but Wat Traimit near the entrance to Chinatown is very impressive. The story behind the solid gold Buddha is intriguing.
We took a taxi because the place we were staying would mean backtrack with BTS to get to the MRT Asok station and it would've been more expensive 😅 Definitely will pay Chinatown a visit in the evening, and thank you for the tip!
I love the fact that you guys are clueless about what you order and the culture, but you still eat it. Love it. I have been watching almost all your video from the last few days. Love it
Cheveyo, I think that's duck blood.😮 I've heard so many great things about Bangkok's Chinese market. Look at the old worn city buildings, decorations, food and people. Although bustling it gives off a type of homey feeling to me. Sensory overload!
You are right, it was definitely duck blood 😬 Not gross but also something I would not seek out again. You are also right that Chinatown feels very homey. Just a very 'lived in' vibe to the area.
Indeed! We were only close to a BTS station, and taking BTS to MRT would've involved backtracking by almost 30 minutes! It would've taken longer and cost more than a taxi, unfortunately. Just an unlucky location that day 😂
i love chinatown.. yaowarat... i stayed here for my time in bangkok.. wanted to stay in the hustling middle of the action... just right off the main road. everynight got to eat delicious street food.. there a nightly street market and the smell colors of chinatown is amazing.. i feed off the energy... its a great neighborhood... there is actually a MRT station in chinatown just recently open, Wat Mangkok, Sam Yot. at my time in 2018 they were just just in middle of that station project but its open now and makes it very easy to get to. enjoy! the drums and dragons is traditional performance part of Lunar New Year, which is in February 1, year of the tiger... so they are probably practicing prep for their acts, street routes.. probably part of their training.
Thanks for the insight. Good call on staying in Chinatown, that must've been a really awesome experience. If we're here during Chinese New Year, we'll definitely go check it out at night.
A word of warning. I am in Akron Ratchasima and friends of ours were in Bangkok over New Year and caught Covid. They figure it was in a restaurant in Sukhimvit. Please be careful and talk with Josh and Lisa as well. I don't want you to get sick. I love your videos.
Thanks a lot for this warning, it's much appreciated it. We are weary of getting Covid, and we especially don't want to spread it. Hope you and yours are staying happy and healthy as well. Thanks again for letting us know.
That picture at the patongo (or pantongko) stand you take is actually the picture of Thai princess making and selling that patongo dough. Her Royal Highness Princess Sirindhorn is known to be a very outgoing and down to earth. She attends and sponsors many festivals. I think that picture is when she presided over the open ceremony for the Chinese New Year festival at Chinatown and then helping out each of her favourite stalls/stands. FYI. The word "pantongo" (ปาท่องโก๋) is from the Chinese word 白糖糕 (báitánggāo) or 白糖粿 (báitángguǒ), which actually refers to other kind of snack/cake made from steamed rice dough (not the one you ate). But in Thailand, it was almost always sold together with deep fried dough (the one that you ate), which in Chinese is called 油條 (yóutiáo). Thai people just conflate the two and called them by the same name. But as the fried dough is more popular, Thai people nowadays when they say "pantongo" (ปาท่องโก๋ ; báitánggāo/báitángguǒ) they refer to youtiao (fried dough).
Thank you very much for the insight! The Thai princess sound like a very down to earth, kind person! It's interesting how the name changed over time in Thailand. A few other commenters mentioned that, and it's funny how that happens everywhere with food.
Love you guys and your channel. I have subscribed. Question on jet lag. You guys appear slightly more tired than usual in this video. Did you feel jet lag?
Good to know, thank you. We're staying in a spot that would mean backtracking to Asok in order to get to an MRT station. It would cost us more than Grab 😅
You are right. We were staying in an awkward spot where getting to MRT would've involved backtracking with BTS and it would've taken longer and cost more.
Should’ve gone there during night time. Much, much more interesting street foods. Also, there is the other mass transit train (subway) going there called MRT.
In Indonesia, the Patongo is called Cakue. It's chinese snack originally I believe. We eat it by mixing in porridge. But you can also eat it directly. Usually it's long but some made it shorter. It's savory. but if you find the other one, usually shape like a pillow, it's the sweet one.
The dough is mostly everywhere, they have different mix not just a dough that sell everywhere around Bkk , They mostly sell in the morning with tofu soup drink come along.
If u revisit Yaowarat. or China Town. recommend u go there at weekend.. then extend further to klong Orng Arng canal.. Just a few hundred metres north of Yawaraj on foot.. U will feel a different atmosphere of shopping and eating by the canal at night. Try it.. Try this place.. It is not far.. Should go there in evening..or about 5 pm then. U can enjoy both Sampheng largest clothes market and Tha Nam Ratchawong pier which is by the Chao Praya river... and then to the Kong Orng Arng.. It is a 3 in one trip..
You can go to Chaina Town. With the MRT Blue Line,by taking the BTS sky train to Asoke station , and then to the subway, Staiont Sukumvit (BL22) get off at the station Wat Mangkon (BL29) and Sam Yot (BL30)
It is ok to go to a Chinese temple in your attire. The street you saw the temple is Soi 6 and is a wet market. The area where you got the earring is famous for wholesale stuff
The dough is chinese fried doughnut, in mandarin called yóutiáo (油條) but only Thai people misunderstand and call it báitángguǒ (白糖糕) or (pa tong go in thai) which is the different kind of dessert.
yes, in the past when these snacks were introduced they sold two different kinds together Pa-tong-ko (white steamed dough) and Uew-ja-kuay (deep fried dough). the peddler would shout "Patongko Uewjakuay" loudly to call customers. Among the two Uewjakuay was more favourite, and spread out all over the country. since it is the strange chinese name, the thais didnt really know the food just remember the shout "Patongko Uewjakuay" and shorten it as Patongko to call the deep fried dough. So it is only in Thailand that call this food Pa tong ko.
That place I've seen it on someone else's page and it has a michelin star. Some kind of donut. At any point in the video did you feel overwhelmed with all the people?
It probably doesn't seem like it, but we both love busy places like that 😅 Was very nice to experience it, especially during this time. It's nice to be able to go home and have peace and quiet though 😊
You are right 🙂 We took a taxi because we were staying at a place west of Asok so we would have to backtrack to take BTS/MRT and it would be more expensive.
The last thing you guy eat in Thai they called (Pra tong go) is like a snack and they are many way to eat them in old days people eating them with coffee kids have it with milk or condensed milk compared to western is a donut
Sawadee the last one we called Po tong ga ! Just kidding pa tong go that’s right. The end of this month is Chaina new year if you want to see The big celebration came back to this place again bye 😊😊😊
If you walk up from Khlong Ong Ang canal , You will come across Chao Phraya Skypark, it will be the world's first bridge-based park across the Chao Phraya River. and will see the Bangkok sk ylines view and the Prang of Wat Arun pagoda
Those kids go around in china town doing their dragon dance for chinese shop owners. Supposed to bring good fortune. The shop owners then pay them. A means for the kids to earn some extra money
From where we are we'd have to take BTS east towards Asok, and then get on MRT to go back west to Mangkron. It was actually more to do it that way than just getting a Grab 😅
@@OnePackWanderers Link station Mrt & BTS. Is Asoke (Sukhumvit). , Silom (saladang) , chatuchak( Mochit). To go iconsiam is. Bts Sapan thanksin and free ferry to mall ( recommend cuz u can enjoy Riverside. ). Or Bts Krungthon and connect toy train only one station Direct to MALL
You guys should give the Philippines a shot in one of your travels, I'am an expat who used to be based there a couple of yrs ago. Now I’am back stateside wished to be back there soon. Boracay, Palawan , Siargao and Cebu are your go to’s when in the Philippines…
@@OnePackWanderers if you guys want peace and quiet definitely Palawan or Siargao. If you wanna party then its Boracay Island and Mactan Cebu. Definitely not Manila too crowded. Siargao Island would have been awesome spot unfortunately it got hit by typhoon and badly damage.
MRT (subway) has China town station and it is a must see due to its wall mural. Next time dress properly and visit Wat Mangkorn (Dragon temple). The famous Chinese temple over 100 years old.
@@OnePackWanderers best time is early in the morning, it’s vibrant and busy and colourful and mostly overlooked by UA-camrs but especially great for couples. You could do a fantastic video with the Grand Palace after or a boat on the Chao Phraya.
Actually Street food in Chinatown Start in the evening like 6 PM , I am afraid that you have to come back again for dinner , The whole street it’s full of food line.
Now a day it rarely to find peoples speak Chinese in Thailand even though in old age except their parents (over 80-90 years old) young age became Thai already .This is different from many Countries … Chinese always Chinese not changing too much like Thailand.
@@OnePackWanderers Not only Chinese if you go to little India that place called Pahurat not far from Chinatown this is Indian community there a lot of shops selling cloths and many interesting thing Indian foods..Indian dresses…at young age they can’t speak Indian too they became Thai already.I don’t know why may be the way of Thai life style you can feel free in this land (Thai mean Free or Freedom)all immigrants then turn to be Thai automatically and they also proud to be Thai too.If you told them that they are not Thai most of them will not satisfied.Try Pahurat you guys will love it.
another thing i have to try / taste when im there , allready was planning on visiting chinatown but wasnt sure about the food , those bread things with the dip seem to be verry good chineese newyear this year is on theusday the first of februari ua-cam.com/video/vi95ZTEHoL8/v-deo.html the dragons and drums are basicly a small taste of wat you could see in chinatown if they celebrate it there the same way they do in china how i understood it is : they use the dragons / lions and fireworks to drive the bad spirits out and the good spirits intoo the shops and homes and have good luck in the new year they might go a bit over the top this year to prevent another lockdown
You missed the "Thieves Market" Where stolen goods where sold in the past. However they have now changed the name of the market. But the goods are still the same!
I think we misspoke. What we meant is that BTS doesn't have a direct line to Chinatown. Where we're staying, we would have to take BTS east to Asok and then MRT back west towards Chinatown. It would've cost us more than just using Grab 😅
@@OnePackWanderers I love it it’s basically the old grab before they got brought out and got super expensive can get from the airport to asoke for 200 unlike grab who want 450
15 min walk further during daytime to the place called The Old Siam, at the main hall there you'll get to enjoy all freshly made Thai food, snacks, and deserts. Recommend revisit Chinatown from 7pm and that canal (Klong Ong Ang) in your video. It's totally different from what you had seen, like two sides of the same coin. 😊
I do recommend you AorTorKor market,it’s next to Chuktuchuk market.You will find lot of delicious foods and premium fruits especially Durian. ตลาด ออ ตอ กอ
You're right! We should have explained it better. We didn't take BTS to MRT because where we were staying, we'd have to backtrack with BTS in order to get to Asok and connect to MRT. It was faster & cheaper to take a taxi, which is rare!
The dough is called Patongo (pa-tong-go). It's everywhere in Thailand but Thais normally dip this in the sweetened condensed milk. The green dipping sauce is a pandan coconut custard aka Song-kha-ya. Check out a place called "Mont Nom Sod" in the old town area, it's probably most popular among the Thai for songkhaya.

You can take BTS and MRT and up right in front of China Town and the best time to go China Town is in the evening time.
We took a taxi because the place we were staying would mean backtrack with BTS to get to the MRT Asok station and it would've been more expensive 😅

In this video we were a bit tired from New Year's celebrations the day before 😅
you walked into a great restaurant, i always visit when i go to Sumpeng. they serve great Duck noodle soup.
We'll try the duck noodle soup if you end up back in that area. Very neat little hole in the wall type place 🙂
You should have grabbed the BTS to Sapphan Taksin station and then take the boat a few piers down to
China Town. An amazing experience you missed.
Ah, not to worry, we've been on the ferry a few times. It's lovely 🙂
You can go to Bangkok Chainatown with MRT Subway Blue Line. Wat Mangkorn Station
Good to know, thank you. We're staying in a spot that would mean backtracking to Asok in order to get to an MRT station. It would cost us more than Grab 😅
😄
Y'a know, when i see you Tia, i see my nephew's wife. I didn't realise she was so beautiful.❤❤❤❤ two for you and two for your wonderful patient hubby.
Even through BTS is not connected with China town , but MRT has the station "Wat Mangkon Station".

To go to China Town, you can take sub-way (MRT) which has a good connection with sky train (BTS).
6:20 is duck blood jelly.

What's the name of that coffee shop in Chinatown?
The BTS doesn't go to Chinatown, but you can take the BTS and exchange to the MRT and go to the Wat Mangkon Station!
You are right 🙂 We took a taxi because we were staying at a place west of Asok so we would have to backtrack to take BTS/MRT and it would be more expensive.
Pa Tong Go with Sang Ka Ya (the green castard) and yes that is blood but it is good for your health 😊

Pathongko with sweet pandan sauce
You can travel Thonburi too 😃
Hopefully we will!

Okay, we'd love to see the New Year celebrations! It's on the last day of January, right?
30 Jan-2feb if you have a red shirt don’t miss to wear 👍👍👍
This is fried fritter/dough and the chinese call it You Tiao. You can dip it in coffee or soya milk as well.
Oooh, dipped in coffee sounds delicious! That's how we will try it next time 😋
The fried dough is very yummy. I always go Chinatown for this food stall.
If you walk up from Khlong Ong Ang canal , You will come across Chao Phraya Skypark, it will be the world's first bridge-based park across the Chao Phraya River. and will see the Bangkok sk ylines view and the Prang of Wat Arun pagoda

Ah interesting. It tasted like very salty gelatin
I don't believe you both didn't like the sugarcane juice, it's the best for the tropical weather.
We don’t have a taste for the really sweet stuff 😅
If you go by MRT you will see a beautiful station.
Next time we go, we'll definitely take MRT 🙂
Actually Street food in Chinatown Start in the evening like 6 PM , I am afraid that you have to come back again for dinner , The whole street it’s full of food line.
We definitely must go back again 🙂
They have a bunch of jewelry stores there I bought my wife a fee things there gold is cheap . it was when I was over there in 1970 .
We did notice a whole lot of gold jewelers! We thought for that many places to be selling it, it must be cheap!
Pa-Tong-Go is the name of the dough, My favourite.
Thanks for the info, we'll definitely have to commit the name to memory 🙂 It was so good, and also savory 😋

little brown thing at 6:18 is a duck blood
^___^
Thanks for letting us know! It tasted like salty gelatin 😬
Now a day it rarely to find peoples speak Chinese in Thailand even though in old age except their parents (over 80-90 years old) young age became Thai already .This is different from many Countries … Chinese always Chinese not changing too much like Thailand.
Interesting! I wonder why Chinese immigrants integrate better more in Thailand than other countries 🤔
@@OnePackWanderers Not only Chinese if you go to little India that place called Pahurat not far from Chinatown this is Indian community there a lot of shops selling cloths and many interesting thing Indian foods..Indian dresses…at young age they can’t speak Indian too they became Thai already.I don’t know why may be the way of Thai life style you can feel free in this land (Thai mean Free or Freedom)all immigrants then turn to be Thai automatically and they also proud to be Thai too.If you told them that they are not Thai most of them will not satisfied.Try Pahurat you guys will love it.
another thing i have to try / taste when im there , allready was planning on visiting chinatown but wasnt sure about the food , those bread things with the dip seem to be verry good
chineese newyear this year is on theusday the first of februari

the dragons and drums are basicly a small taste of wat you could see in chinatown if they celebrate it there the same way they do in china
how i understood it is : they use the dragons / lions and fireworks to drive the bad spirits out and the good spirits intoo the shops and homes and have good luck in the new year
they might go a bit over the top this year to prevent another lockdown
Thanks for the insight. Would be really cool to see it during the Chinese New Year. And hopefully they have success, preventing another lockdown 😬
I love your blouse so pretty. Wow it is amazing so busy. Enjoy You two. Stay safe 🙏💕🍺
Thank you very much 😊
You missed the "Thieves Market" Where stolen goods where sold in the past. However they have now changed
the name of the market. But the goods are still the same!
Ha! A market of stolen good, wow 😂
Pa Tong Ko, the best ummm
Delicious 😋
6:22 BLOOD. Jelly blood.
Wow 😬 It tasted kind of like jello 😂
oohhh 180 baht for a piece of cake :S thats like western prices if not more
Yea it was definitely very expensive, but the atmosphere was really nice. I think it's the type of place only for special occasions.
Actually, you can get to Chinatown by subway (MRT).
I think we misspoke. What we meant is that BTS doesn't have a direct line to Chinatown. Where we're staying, we would have to take BTS east to Asok and then MRT back west towards Chinatown. It would've cost us more than just using Grab 😅
@@OnePackWanderers That's really smart! Pay less, more convenient.
Heads up bolt is half the price of grab usually
Good to know! Never heard of Bolt, but we'll get the app! Thank you 😊
@@OnePackWanderers it’s used all over Europe and bkk chiang mai n Aus etc
@@OnePackWanderers I love it it’s basically the old grab before they got brought out and got super expensive can get from the airport to asoke for 200 unlike grab who want 450
It's not the liver, it's the blood.
the brown food is pig blood or duck blood...
Yep, we learned it was duck blood! First time having it 😅
6:20 jelly blood haha
It does have an interesting taste 😂
Chinese New Year dragon dance?
That's what it was 🙂
ช่วงนี้อากาศกำลังดีออกเดินเที่ยวได้ แต่เดี๋ยวต่อไปอากาศจะร้อนขึ้นเรื่อยๆจนถึงร้อนจัด การเดินเที่ยวจะไม่สนุก ...
It's not so bad now, but does it get a lot hotter in the summer?

When you need to know the price for this, you can say in Thai 'Tao rai ka/krub' ..... P.S. ka for female and krub for male.
This is REALLY useful, thank you so much!
Love ❤️ ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
😊😊😊
If you want to eat a famous food in there, You should to go there at evening after 7 p.m.
We definitely will go at night next time 😄
15 min walk further during daytime to the place called The Old Siam, at the main hall there you'll get to enjoy all freshly made Thai food, snacks, and deserts. Recommend revisit Chinatown from 7pm and that canal (Klong Ong Ang) in your video. It's totally different from what you had seen, like two sides of the same coin. 😊
Thank you for the information! We will definitely revisit Chinatown at night next time 🙂
Human blood?
Hopefully not!
Bangkok Chinatown is the big in the world.There are lot of delicious foods and exiting things to see.This one you must visit while you are in Krungtep
Wow! We didn't know it was the biggest in the world. Very nice place!
I do recommend you AorTorKor market,it’s next to Chuktuchuk market.You will find lot of delicious foods and premium fruits especially Durian. ตลาด ออ ตอ กอ
Blood jelly, u r vampire 😚
No vampires here 😅
Hi how r u ?🙏 i can't sleep hehehe 😁
Hello! 😊 Hopefully you go some sleep!

BTS doesn't go to Chinatown but MRT does
You're right! We should have explained it better. We didn't take BTS to MRT because where we were staying, we'd have to backtrack with BTS in order to get to Asok and connect to MRT. It was faster & cheaper to take a taxi, which is rare!
@@OnePackWanderers oic
You ate flower 🙄
It didn't taste very good 😂😂
Don't eat the flowers lol
Ha, now we know 😂
