BETTER Than STREET FOOD In BANGKOK? 🇹🇭 ICONSIAM, TERMINAL 21 & SIAM PARAGON
Vložit
- čas přidán 1. 07. 2024
- BANGKOK, THAILAND - Iconsiam mega mall, Terminal 21 food court, MBK Center and Siam Paragon - If you are visiting Bangkok for the first time, you do not want to miss these amazing shopping malls. The best part about them is that they all have great Thai street food courts. If it is your first time eating Thai street food, or you just want to eat somewhere with more comfort, Bangkok's shopping mall food courts are great place to come. Shopping malls in Bangkok are a perfect way to introduce yourself to Thai street food because there are English translations, it is clean, the restaurant is air-conditioned and best of all, you have multiple options all under one roof. You should expect to pay a little more for this convenience though. Personally, I love ICONSIAM, it may be the best shopping mall in Bangkok and SookSiam Bangkok floating market Thai street food is surprisingly good for a Bangkok food court.
Which is your favourite?
There is so much food to eat in these malls. Whether you are looking for Pad Thai, Pad krapao, Khao Soi or just some mango sticky rice. You will find it all here in one place.

Which is your favourite food court? Please give this video a LIKE and a COMMENT - It really helps me
Siam Paragon is my favorite
MBK over T21, never been at Icon, but in February i will try it :)
I enjoy Seacon mall near the airport. Junk food on the bottom floor is great
Terminal 21 has been hard to beat.
My question was valid after listening to your opening gambit
Can't wait 😂
Let’s go
Great video. Just a note: It's not necessary to take the ferry to IconSIAM, as it can be hot and time-consuming. Just stay on BTS Silom line one more stop across the Chao Phraya river to Krung Thonburi station, then take Gold Line to its first stop: Charoen Nakhon station. The station is connected to IconSIAM... can just walk right into the mall.
great tips, thank you :)
Yes that's true. I take the Gold Line too ...
Thanks. Going there in december wirh the family and look ling at the easiest way to ge there from SIAM
Yes I tried. Though the feeder train to Iconsiam does take a little long to arrive too.
I miss Thailand 🇹🇭
me too
All look nice and clean
You are right about those who are nervous eating street foods, they should begin with food court in various malls.
yeah that is another benefit, all are clean. But I would definitely use it as a starting point, not just a place to only eat at.
I’m happy to see your videos of Thailand again everything looks amazing ❤❤❤❤❤
woohoo! thank you :)
I love Thailand! I went to Bangkok for the first time this year back in July. I was only there for 5 days but food was everywhere! Amazing! I mostly ate at the hotel mainly because breakfast came with my stay but the breakfast spread was amazing! 5 different stations, Asian, European, American, Dessert, and Salad/ fruit. Dinner was always at the hotel because I did not want to be out too late. It was too hot! haha! However, I did get to eat at Siam Paragon and the food court at the platinum market. Also, I once ate at the central world mall food court, all walking distance from the hotel. Best hotel I have ever stayed at. I might go back. I want to try this other Siam place you just mentioned. I did not get to see the river nor ride any river boat.
oh yeah you should visit ICONSIAM, it is the other side of the river, but for me it is the best of all of them. It will be interesting to see what you think
Which hotel are you staying in? As you tell us, there are over twenty hotels in this area.
Thank you for this. Most helpful.
You're very welcome!
You ate the Massaman the same way I would, even the potato. I'm going to Thailand for the first time in February of 2025 and I can't wait. Your videos are very helpful by the way.
ahhaa that is the only way! you will love Thailand, where do you plan to visit? I am glad the videos are useful.
@@hungrytoexplore We’re going to Bangkok, Krabi, and Pattaya. We fell in love with Thailand watching the movie Kickboxer when we were kids so we’ll visit some locations JCVD went to in the film plus eat some amazing food we can’t get here at home.
I've just visited Terminal 21 yesterday & your comment made me want to go again to try the beef Massaman
@@jjxfen4898 nice. I actually just tried Massaman for the first time yesterday. Mango sticky rice too. They were amazing. I can’t wait to go to Thailand!
@@jjxfen4898 haha you must!!!
In the Siam Paragon, actually all the kiosks in Thai street food area are the famous and well known restaurant. I recognised them. Your Yentafo is my favourite one. ❤️
Love to see your Thailand videos, cheers.
Oh yeah, I love Sai Oua too ✨✨
And in Yentafo that one is squid!! Not ear or stomach lol. Preserved squid, it has crunch texture. Normally they have fish ball, fried shrimp ball, fried tofu, squid, jelly fish, fish dumpling and blood pudding.
This restaurant is famous for their fried shrimp ball and fried and braised pork bits (the dark crispy one in soup).
yes some of them are also restaurants too which is cool. I love yentafo
haha yes, I realised that after filming
me too! it is so good
One of the most underrated dish was Yen Ta Fo. I'm happy you covered it.
Yes! It’s so delicious
👍 Thank You Joe 👍
I admired your good knowledge of Thai Food.
You know better than some Thai People.
Make it fun to watch you test and explain all Thai Cuisines
my pleasure :) I am happy that you enjoy it
I have been to all these food courts and they all have good points. You are right about them being a good entry point to street food. I am still working up to street food. The language barrier intimidates me. But my goal on this years trip is to get there. Enjoy your vids and am a serious Gary Butler fan. Cheers
I am a big Gary Butler fan too haha. Do not worry about the language barrier... just use the google translate app on your phone. Use the camera mode to translate the menu and then just point or learn a few phrases to get your by. That is all I have done. For instance, learn, spicy or not spicy. pork, chicken, beef. I want... (Ao), thank you. It will be more than enough for you
Great idea. I will check out the malls to find what I like to make street decisions later. I usually just stick with pad kaprao gai.
yeah, I think that is a really good way! there is so much more to discover so I hope it helps
Damn the plastic/metal chopsticks! My English boy friend is always forking his way through every food court and restaurant in Asia.
😀😀😀😀
'forking' I misread at first.
Enjoy ur vids. All foods look delicious!!😋 by the way the thing you ate in yentafo. Its not stomach. Its crunch gelatin squid preserve stick.
Thanks for the info! I realise that now haha, whoops
I am here Joe 😊. Nice one.(will have to split this one due to the size)
No worries Max, in your own time :)
The long, brown piece in the Yen Ta Fo bowl is squid meat not a pork stomach........I really like Yentafo. Usually this dish mostly consists of seafood. (except pork blood cake......LOL) and morning glory which are indispensable in this bowl of noodles.
oh! yes yes, you are right, thank you
✔ Terminal 21 ✔ is my favorite.
The best food court of all
▪ LOW PRICES
▪ Great Services
That's why a lot of people here.
So, table is hard to fine 😊
I like Kuay Jub here and Rad Nah is good too.
One thing you'll notice people willing to clear table before leaving.
Because they appreciated the Food Court did for them.
..... 👍
it is all very tasty
สวัสดี ครับพี่Joe 🇹🇭เทียวให้สนุก ครับพี่
Thank you :)
Tourists love to eat street food, and that's a great experience. Food courts are OK too, and a step up in comfort and hygiene. But most visitors ignore chain restaurants. They don't have the street cred, but you can get some very good food in chain restaurants. Ros Niyom for one. Then there's Ong Thong which specialises in Khao soi and it's amazingly good. For pad krapao Moom Gapao is really good. Even the ubiquitous S&P is often very good. You rarely see tourists in these places, and only the occasional expat.
that is true, I guess they simply want something different than they are used to or just do not film these places. I must say, I have eaten in Ong Tong and it is too sweet and creamy for me. I prefer street khao soi
อาหารดูน่ากินไปหมดเลย คงอยู่ไทยมานานรู้จักผักบุ้งผักกะเฉดแต่อย่าไปกินกระทินล่ะกัน
It was all very delicious
@user-ob4f…
กระถิน
Thanks for the video! I like all the food courts, but the one at Iconsiam is mostly very crowded. Have you been at the Starbucks on top of Iconsiam? They have Special Drinks and a terrace, from where you have the best view over Bangkok! I saw your video about the Terminal21 Food court , so I tried the Massaman at Terminal21, its really, really good!
My favourite Food Court is still the one at Central Pinklao!
I haven't tried that actually, I will try it next time I am in BKK. I do love the food courts for easy food options but I really do love the street food and that is my go to.
@@hungrytoexplore Nice! Of course, I like also all the street food places!
Fantastic video! Thank you! By the way, I love your T-shirt from Thailand National Soccer Team. Is there a place in Bangkok where I can buy it?
thank you, I bought it on shopee
must try; Ros Niyom (Thai cuisine) restaurant at Emquartier n Central mall, they serve; Green Curry (Gaeng Kheau Wan) Massaman Curry (southern Thai) Crabs Omelets n Prad Kha Pao Moo, Mango sticky Rice (Khao Niu Mamueang), Have a Zeed restaurant at Terminal 21, Laem Charoen (Thai Seafoo) resto at Central, must try; Mud Crabs Curry, Grilled Prawn, deep fry Grouper serve with chili sauce, SomBoon Seafood restaurant at Hwai Khuang, Thong Smith restaurant serve; Thai Boat Noodles, Deep Fry Dumpling n Dessert; Bua Loi, Prachak Roast Duck at Silom, etc
Wow awesome information, thank you
Appreciate the effort in putting the google map link in the description. Sub.👍
No problem, I have that in every video to make it useful for you
Great blog. Just want to say the ferry doesn't always operate. It didn't on three of the occasions we were There. But in saying that it doesn't cost much to jump on a long boat ferry
Oh really? I also heard they charge 10 baht for it now since I filmed. But you’re right, the long tail is also a good option to hop over. I prefer arriving like that
✔ Terminal 21 ✔ ดีที่สุด ✔
บริการเยี่ยม
อาหารอร่อย
ราคาถูก
--- The Best --
You must try Thai Desserts
Mango & Sticky Rice = The Best
Full order only 70B at Terminal 21 ... you'll pay double 150b at others
..
I love mango sticky rice
42:46 even for Thai people also hate those type of chopstick too!!! I can confirm. It slip like hell.
haha I have no idea why they exist
Good review, Bangkok is really a food heaven. Which one is your favorite?
thank you :) My favourite has to be ICONSIAM, what about you?
❤
Thank you
🙌🏼🙌🏼😀😀😊
thanks Rosie :)
Terminal 21's food does taste good and has a reasonable price while siam paragon is a kinda like luxury version of food also fresh mart. Goods in there are in good shape and have a nice quality but it come up with hihg price as well. Iconsiam is kinda expensive for me and food is neutral or kinda not worth it for me. I've tried some from iconsiam it cost me around 100-200 bht while I bought it from some local area at 50-80 bht as a same product but better quality and better taste.
I think that is what I like, whatever you are looking for, there is an option for you
@Paragon there wasnt pig s ear in the yentafo you had. It was pickled squid
ขนมจีนแกงไก่ที่คุณกินนั้น ปกติคนไทยจะไม่นิยมใส่ผักสดอื่นๆลงไป แต่คนไทยจะกินผักเหล่านั้นกับน้ำยากะทิหรือไม่ก็น้ำยาป่า (รสชาติเปรี้ยวเกิดจากที่คุณใส่ผักกาดดอง)
but they are so good when they are put on tip of the curry
Thailand has a lot of delicious food
oh it sure does
Term 21 has an excellent vegetarian stand
yeah, there vegetarian section there is good too, you re right
At 40:31 the are fermented squid not any giblets
Ah okay thank you
I wonder is that corn like in American or Australia GMO??????or old tipe ?????😊
I have no idea... sorry :(
You complain about the plastic chopsticks but wait until you use the metal ones in Korea 😂😂😂
hahah I have done that too. Wooden chopsticks all the way
Can be found in lot of authentic Korean bbq in Bangkok too!
❌ Siam Paragon is my last place.
Everything are expensive for food court.
Some just sell name at higher price and test and quality are not much different than Terminal 21 which are 50% - 70% less cost.
You must buy 500 bahts card here instead of 200 B at Terminal 21.
I try one and once is enough
Go eat at the restaurants better than food court here
There are a couple of places I like there but it wouldn't be my first choice
FYI there’s no offal in Yentafo it’s actually crisp squid pickled.
ah okay, thank you!!
I can vouch that Siam Paragon, not Iconsiam, that has the best food variety and taste. I love Iconsiam also for its read-to-eat honey white pomelos.
interesting! I guess that is the beauty, there is somewhere for everyone
❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Thank you
Was at T21 last week, was cheap but far too busy and not great quality
ahhh what did you eat?
I didnt know Pau Gasol does food travel videos now.
got to find ways to bring that dollar in
Dude you need Naan with that 28:10
Dude you don't "crush potato" you mash it. Lol.
Mashed potatoes gravy.
Haha yes! Bread always makes life better
add some chapters or whatever to your video timeline it makes things alot easier
odd, chapters were on there from the beginning. I deleted and added them again and I think they work now
@@hungrytoexplore yep they are working now! thank you!
38:24 Octopus
chai krub
It is not stomach or ears, but it is crispy squid :D
Ah yes!! Thank you, still delicious haha
No more FREE shuttle service to ICONSIAM 10 B is charge per trip.
I’ll walk 🤣
When in Thailand, if you aren't soaked from head to toe while you eat, did you really eat?
hahahah exactly!
Hey Joe, I cannot comment in your live chat for some reason
That’s weird! You aren’t banned… I promise
@@hungrytoexplore 😆😅😆
you missed the prices. The prices are the most interesting thing about these cheap country food videos
Ah the prices were in the full videos but they have changed a bit since putting the compilation together so I left them out
You put too much vinegar in the Rad Na.😳😳😳😳😳 Since it is very sour, you should add a little sugar to it to tone down the sourness.
Haha i prefer it to be more sour than sweet. I like things to be salty and sour
@@hungrytoexplore OK, if you like. For me, it is inedible.👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
❤️❤️❤️🇹🇭🇹🇭🇹🇭🙏🙏🙏👈👈👈
❤️🇹🇭
You've gone to the dark side
sometimes you just need to talk a walk on the dark side
Moo Bing and not Ping.
Bing bang bong! Whatever it is, moo ping is delicious
@@hungrytoexplore 🤣ปิ้ง (Ping) อ่ะถูกแล้วว Bing ไม่มีความหมายในไทย ใช้เรียกทับศัพท์แบบ บิงโก
Sound is no P but it’s a mixed sound between P and B. You dont release the wind from lips where actual P does.
Best street food in a shopping mall? Didn't watch til the end
Watched enough to leave two comments though 🤣
Obviously he's not going to find great street food because he's in a shopping mall and not on the actual street
Did you totally miss point of the video?
Your camera is HORRIBLE
Thank you :)
