FAKIN’ IT TO MAKE IT: AN EXPLORATION OF BANGKOK’S FAKE MEAT MARKET

Impossible Burger, Beyond Meat, and Omni Meat, Bangkok Foodies Explores the Fake (Vegan) Meat Restaurants Menus and Supermarket Products.

Here come the irritated groans of the anti-vegan brigade claiming vegans should just “eat their rabbit food and shut up”. How dare they use meat phraseology for non-meat foodstuffs? The gaul of it all. The word “sausage” should only ever be used for lengths of intestine stuffed with a gritty mash of pig snout.

The Big List of Best Affordable Restaurants in Bangkok

Exploring the culinary scene in Bangkok is an exhilarating endeavor, but listing the best restaurants is a daunting task. Every street and corner holds the promise of a delightful new food adventure.

In this foodie paradise, you will always regret not being able to eat more as you stumble upon yet another treat to tempt you into overindulging.

With statistics sites estimating Bangkok might have half a million restaurants, it should be a given that this list is nowhere near the tip of the iceberg. It is simply a good start for those who want some tried and tested favourites from some satisfied Bangkok residents.

We wanted to limit our list to independent entrepreneurs and more affordable eats because we love to support small businesses.

For this reason, we have not included places where the price tag is over 1000 THB per person, international chains, or hotel venues.

We have also tried to stick to places that have been around for a long time and will likely stay around.

Chinatown, Bangkok – Drinking and Dining

For amazing food, hustle and bustle, old timey vibes, and hipster bars, Chinatown “Yaowarat” in Bangkok, Thailand is the place to go.

For our anniversary, Tyler took me on a staycation to Chinatown where we stated at the Shanghai Mansion Hotel. Appropriate since we met in China more than 10 years ago.

We roamed the streets and found that Soi Nana is the perfect location for a pub crawl with dozens of awesome bars along one short block.

Thanks to Travelista for publishing my Chinatown guide. Read about it here!

DIY Mooncakes – They’re Edible, It’s Lunacy!

No one likes mooncakes. This is a simple fact of life in China. Every year I am gifted several boxes by employers and business associates (jk, I don’t have those). Every year, I re-gift them to my ayi and my mechanic. Every year, I get the distinct feeling that they are going to pass them on to distant relatives. It is the cycle of the mooncake. I am quite certain that—in the history of mooncakes—no one has ever eaten one, ever. Read more about DIY Mooncakes – They’re Edible, It’s Lunacy! …
