Guava juice

In Chatuchak market, we bought a guava juice. We chose guava because we had very good guava shakes in Bangkok, with perfect sweetness. But this time, the taste is off, not sure what chemicals they put in. Doesn’t taste like real guava juice.

Tiny sausage

In Chatuchak market I saw street vender was selling those tiny sausages. They are only little bigger than a fish ball. Not sure how it tastes.

Chicken rice noodle

In Chatuchak market in Bangkok, a 25 baht thin rice noodle came with a big chicken leg and some knuckles (for bones and skin texture flavor), even some green veggies. What a great value. The meat has been cooked in a big pot for long hours so they are super tender. The soup is also very tasty!

Steamed veggies on hot plate

We saw all locals were having a hot plate dish so we copied as well. I thought it is a hot-plate grilled dish, but to my surprise, it is steamed cabbage with bits of chicken and glass noodles. The plate is not too thick. The portion looks big but it is very healthy and light dish. Taste OK.

Raw egg congee

Bangkok street food stalls still very active even at 11pm. It is interesting to see they have a giant pot of congee (rice porridge) simmering there for hours right at the street corner.



Many seats were placed on the street and are packed with locals. We joined them and ordered a congee dish. Just want to try to see if it is any different than the ones in China. The one we had is with beef balls and raw egg. The congee is pre-salted with no other flavor. I stirred the raw egg and added ginger and green onion. The congee has nice consistency but too watery. I don’t think I like the raw egg flavor in it.

Saucy Chicken

Not sure if it is influence by southern Chinese cooking, the chicken dish came out really saucy. It is quite tasty but I don’t like too much corn starch in my dish. Maybe it is better eat with rice than alone.
