When traveling by yourself, the food you need to cook for myself
If you have enough money, not bothered to eat in restaurants. But sometimes, it is cheaper to cook and saved money to spend on traveling around the country to experience left more.
I want to talk about the markets of Thailand. In tourist countries, even the markets are a tourist. Where is the question tourists, the price rises immediately, sometimes significantly.
Therefore, in order to buy the products at a reasonable price, or search for Thai friends who know the real value and help you to bargain with the sellers, or search for a market for the locals.
they are Usually located away from downtown, so just walking can not find it.
How to distinguish the local market from tourist?
where everything is beautiful for tourists.
And where horrified by what he saw - local.
the Local delicacies we had not attracted. We opted for a more native area. Fish, shrimp, crabs - perfect for rice or vegetables.
to Prepare the products immediately to the place on the coals. Another option is café. For a small fee, the chef will prepare your products according to local recipes will be cheaper than dinner in the restaurant. Or themselves, in the presence of food. Also, you can always buy a ready-made option. For example, mackerel on the coals.
you Can even hot drinks to buy. Someone comes in for a drink, and someone just behind the bottle.
it is Very convenient that the prices are always indicated. Even if you do not know the language, the finger is always possible, and the amount you will see on the calculator.
of course, you Can eat Thai makashnits. It's a small palatucci, where for 10 baht, about 20 rubles to buy a mini skewers of nowhere. But this is an extreme option. If we go to the sea, it is better to eat seafood.
Vegetables and fruits, incidentally, also cost much less. So, if you come in the long term, to save money on food. For a couple of times and not bother with market search if there is a desire to plunge into the local life.
Some photos from the market.
the Lesson is that you should eat among the local, I learned long ago, when first went to Sochi. That in Russia that in Thailand, if you can make money on tourists, they will do)
