Grilled crocodile skewers on Khao San Road! Freshly grilled, the meat was firm with a wild chewiness. Salt and pepper added a wild flavor, and I devoured it heartily. The small beer bottle was 150 baht, quite expensive, but I played it cool. Then, I saw another place selling it for 80 baht. My face turned wild.

I finally tried the long-desired donut after years of missed opportunities: Dunkin’ Donuts! I assumed it would be extremely sweet but found it moderately sugary and easy to eat. A bit dry, so it paired well with coffee. Satisfying my curiosity after years was fulfilling! The flavor rating is 2.6, but let’s round it down to 2.0.

Near Yaowarat in Bangkok’s Chinatown is a hidden gem. The Gai Yang (grilled chicken) here is so good it’ll make you shout! The garlic and black pepper aroma from the charcoal grill drew me in. The juicy yet firm meat and the crispy skin with rich fat made my throat slide smoothly. I gulped down the beer in seconds, feeling pure joy.

Thailand’s Red Bull, Krating Daeng, has nearly 50 years of history. The taste is like a condensed, non-carbonated Red Bull—perfect for energy drink fans! After drinking it, wow! My mind felt sharp! With this energy, I could accomplish so much, but today's task is just posting on X.

Craving Yukimi Daifuku in Thailand? Try Mochi Milky! One bite reveals the perfect chewy texture of mochi. The refreshing milk ice cream isn’t too sweet, which I love! Unlike the two-piece packaging of the original, the single-piece packaging is perfect for a lone eater like me! It’s perfect forever.

Over 80 years old, the famous dish from a venerable Bangkok restaurant: Goishimi! The clear, glossy starchy sauce and the bamboo shoots and chicken in the noodles were delicious, making my cheeks flush. Wait, the signature dish here is Khao Na Gai? I must return! This restaurant stole my heart and my funds for another trip.

The first Thai word I learned from snacks: “ปาร์ตี้” (party)! The pronunciation is almost the same. This cheerful snack has a curved shape, a sweet and salty caramel flavor, and a slightly shiny appearance—perfect for a party! My obsession with parties and cheerfulness might stem from something in my past.

Want to feel like royalty in Thailand? Drink Thai tea at Pancha! The beautiful orange Assam tea had a luxurious feel, with a rich, sweet flavor. Additionally, the mix of chewy and popping boba pearls added to the grandeur. I felt like royalty, sipping elegantly, but the slurping sound from the straw was anything but elegant.

Searching for the famed crispy pork dish "Moo Grob" in Khlong Toei, I got lost but reached the place with locals' help. They double-fried the meat on the spot, making it piping hot. One bite, and I was shocked! The crunchy sound resonated in my head, with a perfect blend of spicy-sweet flavors. I huffed and puffed with delight! This time it was chicken due to a pork shortage. If this is not their best, what is?

Wandering around the local Khlong Toei area in Bangkok’s 37°C heat to confirm a rumor. I found est COLA, a national drink born from a dispute with Pepsi, served in a bag—maximizing the local vibe! Lighter carbonation and a soft sweetness compared to a certain cola. The ingredient that enhanced the flavor was Thailand’s shining sun.
