Some Street Food Isn't Street Food

It's getting a bit lonesome eating by myself all the time. Hm.

ลูกพลับ and oatmeal! 30 บาท After Mango, persimmon is definitely be best fruit.

羊肉湯 205 บาท

Luckily the menu was also in Chinese. And I can read Chinese for foods :) Of the other patrons, the two groups nearest me hailed from Taiwan. Go figure. They tried to order in Chinese but that didn't work so well.

I took bus 2 randomly and got off randomly. Then I walked randomly. I saw this.

Then this.

This street was shiny and I guessed it went North.

And this.

And this.

So my goal upon getting off the bus (wasn't really sure where I was but had a vague idea that I was somewhere in the bulgy area) was to find this ข้าวนะเป็ด place on the mystical ถนนนครไชศรี. I decided to walk in the direction I figured was North. I ran into the Parliament and statue of King Rama V on the way which led me in a big arc such that I kinda forgot which way I guessed North was. So at ราชวิถี I turned left instead of turning left and then immediately right. No one in the 7-11s or the guards or even the taxi drivers had any idea where this street was. Looking at the map now I was about 1 km away and I'd already walked 6. Poo! At any rate I gave up and took a random bus going the direction I figured was South-East. It took me to Victory Monument. I knew there was a seafood place there. Yay.

So 光海鮮, 魚翅 is definitely a Chinese Seafood place. Not the Thai seafood I wanted and not at the prices I wanted. Or the taste level. Except for a few white people, everyone in the establishment was Chinese. A day of surprisingly pricey Chinese food then?
