"Yaowarat, no matter how full you are, don't stop! This trip was nothing but losses: money and a good figure."
Focus on your own desires, not on reviews.
First stop: "Delicious and Famous Yaowarat," a bakery with overflowing fillings.
If there weren't so many people, I wouldn't have bothered to wait in line.
I've been here since the shop wasn't even set up yet, and I still haven't gotten the first number in line. --
Standing in line for 2 pieces of bread, bought them to eat later.
But how do I hold them without the filling spilling out? --
(This shop has a strict queuing system, the uncle calls out very loudly, even to the fifth or eighth alley.)
P.S. If your name is called and you don't come, you'll be skipped.
## Second Shop: "Mr. X's Kway Chap Shop"
This is another restaurant that is worth trying. It has been open for a long time and is well-known. There is a wide variety of dishes to choose from.
You may have to queue on some days, but it is worth it.
The Third Shop: "Auntie Jin's Boiled Cockles" in Texas Alley
This restaurant is good!
However, there are limited seats. You have to wait for the previous customers to finish their meals before you can be seated.
Auntie Jin's restaurant offers two types of shellfish: cockles and mussels. The dipping sauce is delicious.
The auntie sat there dipping for a long time, not smiling, not caring, just staring intensely. Don't be surprised.
If you can't find the shop, just look for the auntie instead. --
While walking, I couldn't resist the chestnuts.
They were freshly roasted, and the vendor offered me a sample. I could buy some or not, it was up to me.
Shop number four: "A-Wun Phochana Noodle Shop"
Located in front of the old cinema in Rama's Chinatown.
****
This restaurant is quite crowded, with tables even placed in front of the cinema's staircase.
A large bowl of delicious kway chap.
(A word of caution for those who don't like spicy food, you might not survive this one. This restaurant is known for its fiery pepper.)
After indulging in spicy dishes, we must satisfy our sweet tooth.
Shop number five: "Sweet Time"
Note: The picture is old from earlier this year, the cup is small.
"But now, the shop has changed the cup!"
New, tall, and sleek cups with names and phone numbers printed on them.
The menu remains diverse as ever.
Crowded, but a must-try dessert shop.
After indulging in dessert, we decided to walk back. Wait, what alley is this? I can't remember, but it's fantastic.
Shop number six: "Satay." The shop is located in an alleyway I can't recall, but it's at the beginning of the alley on the right-hand side.
The dipping sauce was delicious, the pork was good, and there was bread too!
But I can't remember which alley the shop is in.
Oh, oh! On the way back home, we walked back, and on the way, we saw shops selling this and that, blah blah blah.
Walking along, here's the sign for the Yaowarat Old Market. Plus, there's a great restaurant here too.
This is "Nai Lek Restaurant," a restaurant serving clear noodle soup. We will not try this restaurant because my brother took me there before, and it was too spicy due to the black pepper.
A popular spot for taking photos.
We walked around and ate at 6 different restaurants, trying both savory and sweet dishes.
We went home and will definitely be back for more! :)
P.S. Yaowarat is closed every Monday, so don't forget! I made that mistake once before.
