BANGKOK: Streetfood outside Platinum Mall

I'm always super cautious when I'm eating in a developing country because from a medical point of view, our gut flora may not be conditioned to accept their level of hygiene. And the last thing you want to happen on your holiday is to come down with a bad case of gastro. I had that once in Nagoya 2 years ago and I never wish for it to happen to anybody. It was so bad I almost wanted to check myself into the hospital. Can you imagine spending the night on the toilet floor?!

Anyway, I think most well lit, aesthetically pleasing streetfood in bangkok are all controlled by the same head company. I say that because the design are all similar, and they sell the same food. 

There's always a shop selling this.

and this.

and this. This crocodile is like the star attraction or something. Everybody who walks past will definitely stop to take another look and 80% will whip out their mobile for a picture. 

Nick and I were tempted by the colour and fragrance of the food and so.... we decided to share a pad thai and a grilled squid

It wasn't like Restaurant quality. But it was an enjoyable experience. It's convenient located just outside platinum mall so yeah, once youre tired from shopping, just pop by outside for some food.
