DivineMadman Posted September 1, 2018 Posted September 1, 2018 I'm always on the hunt for good food around Bangkok. A contributor to the Bangkok Foodies group has put together this excellent list as a parting gift before she leaves town. https://peaktan.com/bangkok-eats-by-area/ (I should note that it's not an exhaustive list. Maybe members can add their favorites to this thread if they want.) reader 1 Quote
paborn Posted September 1, 2018 Posted September 1, 2018 Divine, after 28 trips you would think I knew this, but what is "old Town" I never heard this before. I really feel stupid. I'd thought I was well read, at least. Quote
DivineMadman Posted September 1, 2018 Author Posted September 1, 2018 I think of it as the part that has the Grand Palace and Was Pho, etc. Also called Rattanakosin Island because it's bordered by the river and canals. Where we draw the line between Chinatown and Old Town I do not know. I also sometimes see places on the river closer to Chinatown and Wat Pathum Khongkha (opposite Lhong 1919) as being in Old Town. Don't know if that's just marketing or not. vinapu 1 Quote
