Shopping places at BKK

Since so many of my friends are going Bangkok, and since I just went, here's a breakdown of shopping places and food. :) But BKK is quite huge, so, do walk around and explore more.

SHOPPING
1) Pratunam Market (Cheap, wholesale market, buy more than one item normally)
2) Chatuchup (I didn't get to go to this one, but things there are VERY cheap, but it's very hot, and not really worth the effort, not v high class things)
3) Suan Lom night market (things are the higher end things of chatuchup, it's open at night, will take a 2/3 days to cover entire area. I think you will like this place)
4) Siam Square: Can take MRT there, it's a pretty cool big area, with small stores all around.
4) Major shopping centres:
- BKK (a lot of fake polos, t-shirts, etc. I think you will like shopping here, a lot of cool t-shirts)
- Emporium (very upmarket, all the DKNY, Moschino, etc)
- World trade Centre (also known as zen), the shopping here is like shopping at singapore shopping centres, but good for walk about... quite interesting.

FOOD
OK... food is a little more difficult to introduce, by place.
1) Je Ngor's Kitchen - off Shilom Road, 11th storey of some ulu building. Need more details, pls msg me.
2) Near Novetel Hotel, the area is Siam Square, there is an upmarket Thai restaurant, can't miss it. the exterior decor (has a lot of plants, and money plants) and it looks very unique. Cannot remember name though
3) Another small eatery in Siam Square, more locals go there, and the food is also pretty good. Cannot describe.

Rule of thumb is... go to places that are crowded... ie. locals frequent. Can't go too wrong. or if you want authentic food, go to places where they don't speak english and an all local clientele. Confirm authentic.

Report over and out. enjoy yourself!!
