Before the end of last year, my friend and I visited Bangkok Chinatown for a day. We didn’t really have anything planned, it just so happened that I wanted to be there as I’ve listed the area under my “Places to Visit in Bangkok 2018”. Come lunchtime, we went looking for this popular…

I read a tweet about this guy saying something to the tune of ” I don’t want to read about the importance of food to you blah blah… I just want the recipe.” And we all went, either you learn to scroll down buddy AND don’t complain about it when you’re getting stuff…
