Bangkok's Street Food Delight
Location: Bangkok, Thailand
Street Food
As a backpacker on a shoestring, I watch my expenses. Between regular resto fare and street food, I default to street food - and that's a good thing. You'll never run out of street food in Bangkok. You get all kinds, all flavors, all different permutations of the basic thing and they are all delicious. On top of all that, they are cheap and clean - I never had any stomach issues. And I practically survived on street food my entire 14-day stay - from B20 egg pancake to B30 pad thai to B50 noodle soup along roadside eateries.
