If you are looking for a great selection of street food in Bangkok, this is definitely the right place! Yaowarat or China town is a street of life, it's a nice way to experience the lifestyle of local chinese while walking along the street and trying different kind of food and dessert. My favourite restaurants here are the seafood restaurant located at the corners of the soi. It is easily to be noticed as it's always full of people and the restaurant is just located on both of the corners facing to each other. I thought they were not the same restaurant but actually they are. Also don't forget to try "Kuay Jub Nam Sai" just 50 metres straight away from the seafood restaurant, this place only have few tables so be patient to wait.

Tips: Go there at night and keep your stomach empty!

Make time to wonder around Chinatown if you are looking to get away from the sterile shopping centres. There are many small alleys so you never know what you might find. Be prepared for narrow walkways that are also used by motorcyclists rushing around with goods. I've unearthed treasures like value-for-money fish maw, toys, ladies accessories, shoes and stationery. Bring lots of cash as no other forms of payment are accepted. Note however that your man may get bored if he is not into shopping.
