INTER Restaurant @ Siam Square Soi 9

Looking for authentic Thai food in Pathum Wan,Bangkok area?
Looking for local restaurant that tourist won't normally go and fairly price in Pathum Wan area?

You should come to INTER Restaurant, which located at Siam Square Soi 9.

Nothing to shout about their interior or exterior design, has some 80's vibe with INTER'S overall design.

We were sitting upstairs

Wide varieties to choose from appetizers, rice, noodles, soup, vege, meat, desserts and drinks.

Isn't Tomyum Kong is a must order whenever we dine in Thailand?

Tomyum Kung (120 Baht). Shrimp in hot sour soup. Not too spicy yet full with Thai richness. Right touch with spices and lemongrass.

Somtum with Salted Crab (58 Baht). Spicy papaya salad with choices of salted shrimp/crab/fish. Very spicy! Should request for less spicy on my next visit here! Despite spicy issue, this somtum was yummy!

Stir Fried Chinese Kale With Salted Fish (110 Baht). Fresh, crispy Kale with salted fish cubes, 1 more bowl of rice please!

Grandma Fried Rice (80 Baht). Soy sauce fried rice with pork in chinese style. Typical Chineseman dishes ordered by Kenny. He said this fried rice taste good.

We were satisfied with our meal and leave without disappointment. If you are looking for delicious high CP value meal, you should pay your visit here!

Walked around Siam Square before took taxi back to our hotel.

Pork Knuckle Rice @ Alley Opposite Shibuya 19 Shopping Mall

My must go back pork knuckle rice spot when I travel to Bangkok! I mentioned this stall on my previous (post) but this is a detailed one!

Located in the alley beside Platinum Mall / opposite Shibuya 19 Shopping Mall.

There's many other food stall in this alley too!

This is the pork knuckle rice stall I talked about 😋

Pork knuckle rice w.i.p

Big bowl of yummy pork knuckle.

Braised egg and pig intestine.

Pork Knuckle Rice (60 Baht). Plate of rice topped with generous portion of pork knuckle meat and savory gravy, side with braised egg (we get an over cooked on this visit😥) and vege.

Roselle drinks with crushed ice. Taste refreshing especially under hot weather.

Friendly stall owner.

Personally I like this pork knuckle rice as their pork meat was tender and flavorful. You can stop by and give a try if you are nearby! 😀

Huai Khwang Night Market, Bangkok

After spent our afternoon at Chatuchak Weekend Market, we went to Huai Khwang Night Market by MRT.

Huai Khwang is located east of the city centre, less congested than central Bangkok, it's suburban pace offers an alternative to Bangkokians looking for quieter communities.

Huai Khwang Night Market starts at 7 pm until late. There are a large number of food stalls, restaurants and a local wet market.

It's raining when we reached Huai Khwang.

From MRT Station we walked passed by Elephant God Temple and found out that only wet market was opening while most of the food stall were closed. Some of the food stalls were opening and moved their stall to shop-lot corridor.

Wet market which selling varieties of raw vegetables and meats.

Fruit stall opposite wet market. We thought buying some soursop but the stall owner told us soursops were still ripe 😭😭😭

We saw many locals were surrounding this soya bean stall and we decided to give a try!

Varieties of topping! Jelly, Barley, Eggs etc. We bought 1 pack to try when back to hotel. Taste good!

Pork porridge stall. Beside pork porridge, this stall was selling savory soya bean too. Trust me, this porridge stall was really good. Thick texture and savory flavor with generous pork meat.

Taste good even it's cold when we reached hotel. Sure will go back to Huai Khwang for this during my next visit to BKK.

When we were leaving, rain started to stop. We saw there's some stall which selling chicken rice, seafood, BBQ pork and noodles started to set up. Not to expect hygiene place if you plan to dine in here, but who cares as long as the food is tasty!

I would say coming to Huay Khwang was a good experience to look into Bangkok local life and food with cheaper price charged compare to main tourist area.

Please don't rain during our next visit to Huay Khwang! 🙇🙏

How to get there?

MRT (Huai Khwang Station)

The world largest weekend market - Chatuchak Weekend Market (also known as JJ Market) has reached it's landmark status as a MUST VISIT PLACE for tourists.

Due to its sheer size and diverse collection of merchandise and food, you spend whole day here just to shop and eat without realize time flies. Although not all at best bargain rate,but most of the clothes and hand made goods here were design by individual designer, you can get pretty nice and special clothes and goods here.

I would like to share my food hunted at Chatuchak Weekend Market on this post with you guys, hope you enjoy!

1.Fried Fish Ball

Fried Fish Ball Stall. The first food stall we saw from our exit. I forgot which exit we were because we jumped out from taxi after he drop us on roadside.

Fried fish ball which seems alike lekor which easily found in Malaysia night market. Smells good and we decide to order Medium portion (40 Baht) to try!

Pipping hot fried fish ball topped with sweet spicy sauce was absolutely delicious! Thumb up! Must go back for this on my next visit.

2.Freshly squeezed orange juice

Freshly squeezed orange juice in small bottle (30Baht) and jumbo size(60Baht)!

3.Grilled garlic bread

Fresh garlic bread stick! Available with 6 different toppings- garlic, sugar butter, chocolate, sweetened milk, strawberry jam and pizza sauce. (1 stick-20Baht, 3 stick-60Baht). Pillowy soft, buttery and garlic fragrant! Thumb up!

4.Roast Pork

Minimum purchase is 200Baht. Juicy yet crispy crackling.

5.Grilled Honey Roast Pork (Moo Yang) (Section 22,Soi 4)

A hidden gem inside Chatuchak Weekend Market,selling their signature-freshly grilled honey pork chop and buns as well.

Freshly grilled pipping hot large pieces of honey pork chop! You can either buy pork chop only or pork chop with bun! Tell the owner the size/grams you want and they will cut for you! (Minimum purchase 100gram)

I ordered a bun (10Baht) (mun tou) and put the pork slices into the bun and eat it together. Pillow soft bun with juicy, sweet and tender pork chop! Yummy! 😋😋

6.Come Waan (Sec3,No.119-120) (Sec10,No.264)

Cool ice cream shop in Chatuchak. They were selling shaved ice, mango sticky rice and 2 flavor of ice cream: coconut & mango, with varieties of topping you can choose from.

I choose menu 1!

Toppings to choose from! Red Ruby is a must!

Wohoo! The Mango ice cream is very good one with sweet and sour taste while Coconut ice cream is awesome too! Had a cool ice cream while rest our leg after long hour under intense heat was so refreshing and comforting!

7.Grass Jelly Ice

On the same street after Come Wann, we saw this stall was selling grass jelly drinks and grass jelly ice! We were curious because we never seen this before at Pratunam and Siam area during our trip.

Menu

Dalang!!! Grass jelly topped with crushed ice and brown sugar. Mixed well before eaten. In such hot weather, one bowl of grass jelly ice would cool down your body and keep you walk and shop further! 😀😀😀

8.Seafood

9. ZSUN Coffee

There's many stall selling coffee and milk tea in Chatuchak Market. We passed by this stall and get a cup of milk tea!
