Chang Phuak Market

Low quality food for low quality tourists. Wait 1h for a table or 20 minutes for takeaway, especially if you want to go with the Netflix, YouTube and Anthony Bourdaine stuff. Worst Khao Niao Ma Muang ever. But beautiful to look at. Like most of the customers here.

Decent budgeted food market. By no means it is quality but for the price, it is ok. Very crowded.

The atmosphere is interesting and that’s it. There are a lot of people and the sellers don’t care about the quality - they want to sell you quickly. We asked for the meat sticks and the woman said it will take 14 minutes to wait. We agreed, paid and waited. After 20 minutes we came back and she didn’t want to give it to us, asked to wait much more. We asked for a refund as we didn’t want to wait the unlimited time, and right after that she gave as our meat sticks. The most funny thing that the meat sticks were not prepared so well - my husband some some raw meat in the middle of the stick. We were afraid to eat it after so we just threw it away. Money and time NOT WELL SPENT. We also bought Fruit Shake in another place and it’s not the shake at all - we tried the shakes here before and we really liked it so we wanted to try it on the market. But it wasn’t that good lol.

Street food around. Tasty coconut ice cream ☘️🤎

A very good selection of various Thai street food. From classics like Pad Kra Pow, Pad Thai, Mango Sticky Rice, to various skewered meats and even pork legs. There is a lot to choose from here. Prices are also very good. There is one stall called Suki Changphuak who have queuing so try to be here as soon as it opens if you want to try this particular stall. My lodging is just a 5 min walk from the market so I always end up having my dinner here.

Biggest night market I have experienced so far. Spreading out in the centre of the old city, the streets are all closed to traffic. You will need a couple of hours to do it justice. Leave room in your stomach for an incredible array of delicious street food and pace yourself as I didn't and saw so many things I wanted to try but was so full already. Lots of interesting things as well as food.

This one is a culinary gem for all the foodies out there to taste local delights. Authentic, delicious Thai street food, and the prices are incredibly budget-friendly. A highlight is discovering 'the lady with the cowboy hat,' featured by Anthony Bourdain years ago. Her stall still offers delicious food. The noodles 🍜, pad thai and mango sticky rice are a must!

2024/1/8(Sat)18:00 Not much guests. More people are from local. We visited Pan Thai, lady and her daughter cook the rice noodles. With chicken, cost 50B. Cooking style is wild and taste good , not salty. Soybean dessert is warm, the soup is cooked with ginger. Soybean milk is good grade though it is not thick. You can ask less sugar or no sugar. PS it is hot . There is BBQ stall, owner is a lady. Small stall and you can order and come back to take out later or the lady will give chair to sit and chill and wait like local.
