Plenty to explore in our homestay at the outskirt of Ayutthaya.

Visit the morning market to sample some local food.

A clean and comfortable hotel. The location is very near to Chinatown.

This is a popular spot to view the skyline of Bangkok, especially during sunset. Sadly it was raining with expected thunderstorm, so have to wait 2h before we could go up. The good thing is there is less crowd, but we miss the sunset and cannot walk on the glass roof. Night view is beautiful, but I guess daytime photography would be clearer. No bags on the rooftop, so need to keep it in a locker. No selfie stick too. There is nothing much to do unless you plan to chill at the bar. I think the entrance fee is 890B (might varies), and you need to book ahead if you want the sunset slot.

Love the porridge here, recommended. Simple, silky, tasty and a bit burnt (in a good way, maybe it is the bottom portion). The meatball is good. Lady boss is friendly.

Decent fishball noodle still open for supper.

Chinatown is actually quite a huge area, probably extending beyond Yaowarat Road. I prefer Chinatown in the daytime, as are plenty of famous Chinese cuisine and Michelin Bib restaurants. There are also all kinds of markets and temples. Chinatown at night is pretty much concentrated along Yaowarat Road with its sidewalk food vendors starting their business. Most people dine here for the atmosphere.

Nice bowl of flavourful and springy egg noodle (pork). Affordable and satisfying street food.

The best oyster omelette I have tasted: very crispy, less oily, fresh juicy oyster, and heavenly delicious. 200B for medium size. Feels like I need to return for more next time.

Love the liveliness of street vendors.

It is a modern soybean dessert shop, perfect for a hot day. They offer a variety of flavours, but taste wise seems pretty average.

Warm and flavourful broth with roll rice noodles. It is simple, nice and satisfying. This place is fairly crowded due to its location, but the queue is systematic and fast.

Beautiful temple with lots of yellow lantern.

Love this street side curry rice. They have about 10 different varieties with many more side dishes. If you plan to dine in, sit down on a chair (no table) and wait for the owner to take order from you. Love the vibe, and love the flavourful good.

This mall is really really really huge. There is an outdoor park with a harbor. The is an indoor street food market, where you can sample all the street food variety in Thailand. The food market is especially crowded. And many floors of shopping and restaurant. Be prepared to spend at least half a day here.

We tried this many years ago, today we return for another round of tasting. We order something more premium, Roe Crab (600B). The small crab is indeed filled with eggs, probably too much given the size. The glass noodles with the special sauce is really too tasty, probably better tasting than the crab. The flavor a bit too strong, maybe too much soy sauce. The crab is medium size, not too much meat, but fresh and nice.

It is a Pad Thai with many fancy ingredients. The crackers and dry cuttlefish are nice additions, but I wish the noodles are softer and warmer.

Too sweet, too messy with average bread. The hype is probably due to the location and the bun does seems interesting.
