It's our third day in Bangkok and we're heading to one of the most famous areas.
Time to explore the massive Chinatown market and all the epic foods and trinkets it has to offer.
We will use the river ferry to reach our destination and take you along on our epic
journey in Bangkok. Day three in Bangkok! I have to finish off what I started yesterday
if you didn't see that video. You're ready to go. You're ready to go. I'm ready to go.
It's a cool temple right next to our spot here. Very colorful. It's quite large. Yeah,
it is pretty large. I'm hoping this is the right direction. We're trying to get to the
boat. We're going to use our river boat today. Going across the river in Bangkok?
That should be pretty epic. Really in just the local area here. It's pretty cool.
And we're going to cross the river and go into Chinatown which is apparently a really touristy
area and we're not sure why. Hopefully not too touristy. So we don't know exactly what we're
going to do but we're going to probably... Jesus Christ. That river. I'm like a dude yelling at
you. We're gonna hopefully find some food, walk down the streets, see the shops. There's an
old Chinese market there which would be cool and we're just gonna do what we do best.
Walk and talk down the street. Is this the right way? Maybe it's not unless we'll just keep
wrapping. We're almost there to where we need to be. That's the wrong way. We got so close.
Which way do we need to go? I think we need to go this way. Yeah, the other way. Yeah,
we got so close. I thought this was just a one-way the whole time but now there's just
walkways everywhere. We went down the wrong way apparently. We don't have connection.
That's an apartment building looking thing. This can't be it.
Dang rabbits. We're down another street. I'm not sure where we are. The street has a gate on it.
The gate's open. Oh, there's bikers over there. We need to get over there.
Oh, see it says it's supposed to connect to something else. The back streets are confusing
here. The back streets of Bangkok. Hopefully we can find it. This is what a neighborhood behind
a Buddhist temple looks like. It's got barbed wire. And it definitely ends up here. Now there's a
street. Another gate. Oh, come on. Google's lying. Hey, there's a walking path and a bridge. Hey,
that's what we need. Oinker, oinker, oinker, oinker. 7-11 delivery. We made it to a real street.
Let's go this way. There's a Chinese dragon thing over there on the wall.
Oh, this is a nice street. Look at all the trees on there. So they got some shade.
Oh, look at that. That's cool. Nice old building. That's a vegetation growing on it. And there's
just all of a sudden like a super nice massive sidewalk. That's very rare for Asia. There's a
big parking lot over there. This seems to be like the peaceful area that biking tours go down. They
just get on a bike, go down some of these side streets. They have squirrels in Thailand. I don't
want to see a squirrel get zapped right now. We almost saw a doggo got hit by a car yesterday.
Almost very traumatic that would have been. Yeah, it's definitely the more peaceful area. As soon
as you cross the river, it gets more peaceful. Except by that mall. That was not peaceful at
all. But people pay to come to this area and bike around apparently. So we got to just stay here.
All right, the boat should be up here somewhere. Hopefully. Let's find out.
Reverse tuk-tuk in Thailand. Wow. They're much larger here. They are. They're smoother too. A lot
smoother. But from 6am to 9am. So that's pretty early. Now we're going to the other one. Gonna
get dropped off on the other side of Chinatown. Cool. It's very nice to get some breeze flowing
because the stagnant air is much hotter. Oh, that's hot. There you go. Thank you. Let's get
on a boat. Oh, time to Chinatown. Whoa, look at that ship. Oh my gosh, it's like a water train.
That's insane. That's like something from a movie. All right, that was a super cheap,
super cheap fare to get on this boat. I think it was something insane. I remember Mangalore was
super cheap too. I think it was 10 cents a person for this. It was 30 bahts a dollar or so. Four
bahts. And there's the train. Whoa, they're zooming. Destination right there. It's interesting
that there aren't that many. And they just kind of turn on their engine and just slowly spin
across the river because we're already here. It's right back in there. You'd think it would
have been easier just to make it like an exit and an entrance on both sides so they could just kind
of go straight and then back up and then go straight and then back up. They could have just
made a floating pedestrian bridge. That'd be pretty cool. But a little... When the sea train
came, there would be some casualties because that thing's not stopping. That doesn't matter.
Just do what you gotta do. And just like that, we're here. Whoa, my gosh, there's a lot. Probably
the quickest disembarkation on a boat ever. Oh, they're being fed. Whoa, the pigeon's gonna swoop
in. Wow, those are really big. They're just jumping on top of each other. It's like the koi
on a larger, uglier scale. And just like that, we've made it to the other side of the river.
It was more of a journey to get there than the actual journey across the river. Now let's go to
China. So we're definitely in the more local area. I know this place gets popping with the tourists,
but we haven't seen any yet. No. It's just kind of like a busy, huge outdoor market street,
basically. Just shops on both sides, food stalls, backpack shop. And we're gonna be heading up to
this walking street here. Hopefully, it's fracking epic. I think you're a diesel. Don't be a diesel.
Do you know what movie we just watched? Oh, gosh. Hey, it's cooler in here. You got some ACs running.
Whoa. Gosh, there's unlimited shopping. This is a lot of stuff. Lots of Barbies. Lots of hats.
Wow. I see Jungkook and I see Lisa. Oh, nice. Oh, my gosh. Part two. Time to buy. Those are banned
in Manila now, so we gotta get them in Bangkok. I'm glad they're not very popular here at the
moment. You can't hear them just everywhere we go. Well, this thing seems to go so far. It goes
all the way down to like a night market that's at the end of this, apparently. It's not night time.
Insane. If you want to do a lot of shopping and you don't really know what exactly you want,
this is where you want to come. Look at that thing. I guess the whole question with these
markets, though, is they could have made the sidewalk a little bit, the walkway a little bit
bigger. It would have been useful. It's like it probably started off decently wide, as you can
see, like going over to there. But then the more popular the market becomes, the more
the shops push into the street because they want to show, oh, look at all this stuff we have. We
need to put it out into the street. And then the tighter and the tighter the actual walking area
gets. And there's just a road up there, it seems like. A car just went by. And there's people
driving bikes in this one. That's always epic. This is insane. You can literally find anything
you want here. It's so big. And since a lot of the shops are pumping out the A.C. inside,
it's actually pretty cool in here. So you don't have to sweat the whole time.
Still don't know why the, you know, the guys on the bikes have the little Thai pancake things.
Thank you. Thank you. We will look for a spot to eat our new pancakes.
Whoa, is this one of those spinner things? It is. I remember those things. Food is starting
to show up more and more now, so we must be getting close to the food area.
They just have the tea places all over the place here, all over the place.
Are those little pancakes? Pancake bites? I hope they're going to be better than
mini pancakes. Eggo mini pancakes. Oh, there's nothing better than that.
It's interesting. Some of them are darker than others. I don't know if they're different.
The inside is darker too. What is it going to be? Pancake bite.
The inside is really sweet. Is this a pancake bite? It tastes like a pancake,
but I think there might be like some like coconut in there or something to sweeten it up.
It's a coconut Thai pancake. That is really good. It's making me, I'm already thirsty and
it's making me more thirsty. Let's see if this has any difference. I should have swallowed the
other one first. I couldn't. Huge mistake. Try a yellow one. All right, definitely a little
coconut cake. It's pretty good. I like how crunchy it is. The outside is crunchy and then the inside
is nice and soft. It kind of tastes like one of the taro balls I got. I don't know, it's like
that really gooey dough. This one's less sweet. I'm not sure what it is, but it's good. Both of
them are good. Sweet, crunchy, mushy, tasty. One dollar snack. There you go. You get a little bit
of pancakes, baby. I don't know what's in that scary looking alley over there, but we're going
straight in. We purchased a grilled banana. One of our favorite street snacks in the Philippines.
How will it stack up in a market in Bangkok? I don't know if they, it doesn't seem like they
glistened it in sugar or any margarine or anything. It's just gonna be bare. Just a
straight up grilled banana. Let's try it together. Let's do this. Oh, it's so hot. Do not bite into
that. You will instantly die. No, no. Oh my gosh, it's really hot. Oh, wow. That's a unique flavor.
You get the nice sweet banana in the inside, but then the outside fry or like grill has a
different flavor than usual. It's like the grill. They were using like some like really hot
gray powder to cook it. I don't know if that was like mashed up like charcoal after it's been
cooking for a while or what, but I've had a grilled banana in the Philippines and it tastes a bit
similar. There's like a banana grilled up, baby. Nice and tasty for like 30 cents. All right,
I think we're about at a level seven right now. Definitely.
It claims on the map that there's some sort of night market thing, like I said before,
at the end it is and we're hoping maybe there's something delicious to eat. Once again,
they just have these juice and tea places all over the place. Even in here, they got one.
So much juice. So much tea. One side you have quilts and cloths. The other side you have knickknacks,
souvenirs. There's been like hijab purchasing areas. This is just utilities, scissors,
massive scissors, underwear, bras, suitcases. They have literally anything you want in there.
They have like essentials and a ton of tourist things. You almost got decked by a light. I got
bald, bro. And now they're just here. This is super random. A lot of food possibly down there.
Food area over there. My back is so sweaty. Gosh, this is so random right here.
Where did this come from? It's just a nice canal. Wow. Wow. That's very hot.
Oh man. Guys, if you go to Bangkok in August or in July, it's hot. It's really hot. And as a famous
smith once said, oh, that's hot. And look at this thing. That is epic. Heck yeah.
Bad news. We've already passed both the markets. So I have to double back. Double back. Yeah.
I don't know if the GoPro can see it down that street and that last shot we just did,
but it's just, you can just see the heat. It's pretty insane. I mean, it looks like this area
is just, there's just more shops going down the street. Just more, more, more shops. More, more,
more, more, and more. So yeah, we're gonna, we just walked through that. Are you shanking people
now? Chinatown is endless here in Bangkok. All I know is the old market is directly back and up a
little bit. So maybe we'll head that way. Maybe we'll find some food along the way. Let's go.
Let's find it. Actually, no, we're saving our energy too. So we can both eat the 20 slicer.
Oh my gosh. We have something very epic coming soon for you guys. It'll totally fit this video.
Oh yeah. Whoa. Hey, mango with sugar. That's better than salt. That's tasty. It's a nice
mango. It's a nice mang. It's always fun to mang in the mangroves, you know.
Chili powder in it? Like in Iceland. Oh. Remember they put that on their fries? Yeah. Sugar chili
powder. That is interesting. It's sweet with a little spice. Just, I'm just gonna. Snort it?
Yeah. Oh yeah. Smell that. Oh, it smells spicy. It does. The second bite was spicy when I got a lot.
Unique. Bangkok. I need to get a dipper of this. That's very unique. You get hit with
sweetness immediately. Favor. And then it just immediately, wherever the exact place the sugar
hit, gets like little tingles of spice. Let's see if I prefer it without. Yes. This was 20 baht,
so about 70 cents. Is that just proof how Caucasian we are? If we just like our fruit
with nothing on it. Plain? I think so. Fruit is yummy. Look at that vitamin. Heck yeah.
Walked down the street. It had some food. I mean, it definitely opens up at night like
big time. There's so many of these stalls that are definitely going to open soon. We just came
out here during the day. I mean, at night it'll be really cool to see the night markets at night,
but they're gonna be so busy. So busy. We're not even gonna be able to walk. There's gonna be
nowhere for us to record and eat. The GoPro doesn't do well in low light. So although we will
go to a night market one of these nights, I don't know if that night will be tonight.
There's no breeze or AC on this street. It's really hot. It's just like sitting.
They do have this rolled ice cream. I wonder how that is. It's as disappointing as a fried ice
cream. Fried ice cream is definitely a huge gimmick. We tried it and it just tastes worse
than normal ice cream. But it's cooler. It's rolled, dude. Peanut ice cream roll.
Beware of imitations. Is that the OG? Maybe. I mean, there's some down there.
The same thing. Yeah, it said the same thing. It was the same thing. So it's special, maybe.
Maybe. What are these things? It's like ice cream tacos. What are these gonna be like?
This is like a very like official place. They say like beware of imitations as if it's...
They invented this thing. Yeah. It looks like some sort of crepe on the outside. It's a Taiwanese
tea and snack place. Some sort of purple ice cream. There's a leaf in there and then it's covered in
peanuts on the outside. Let's try this thing. Oh, that's really good. Oh, it's really cold.
The outside is like in between a tortilla and a mochi. And the peanut really takes over after
you first get the ice cream flavor and that peanut really takes over. That mint. Oh, it's mint.
Sticks around a lot, I think. Some sort of mint. Oh, yeah, that's strong. I'm not a big fan of that.
No, I would have got it without the leaf, I think. Some sort of thing that they put in like drinks
sometimes. Some sort of mint leaf thing. Whatever this is. Yeah, they put it into our like fruit
drinks. They put it in our fruit drink at like P.F. Chang's. That's really good. I like that a lot.
Tasty. Let's eat. Hi there. What's your name? My name's Build-A-Bear. What's yours?
My name's Sad Bear. Why are you sad? Because I like being sad. Is this a bad sign?
It might be. Well, we're in a Japanese store in Bangkok now. Let's go.
We're looking for souvenirs for people. Yeah, it's going great.
I got some elephants. I don't know what to get. All right, let's go. See you. I'm gonna be sad now.
Chicken banana. That's an interesting. A chinana? A chinana, dude. That tastes pretty good.
All right, let's try it tonight. Let's make a like a banana chicken curry. It's got a cordon
bleu, but instead of the chicken, it's cheese. We just shove a banana in here. A cordon
banana. Glue? I don't know. There's a lot of weird stuff in this store. We're ready for Japan.
I think this is how you're supposed to grab it. You are. This one's a little confusing.
Are these the eyes and it's a demon dog or is it a sleeping hamburger demon dog?
If those are its eyes, that's the... I literally cannot tell. I hope it's not. Or it's sleeping.
I'm scared. A donut penguin. Mike Wazowski. Mike Wazowski. Tea, yoga, naps. That's your life.
It's happy time. It's happy time. Enjoy every moment. Life is simple.
We're in Fancy Vu. Wow, there's just a lot of jewelry shops now. That's where we are. This
thing just goes and goes and goes. We're gonna make it one single straight street.
We're gonna make it down to the old market hopefully soon and see what's there. This
thing just it literally goes forever for hours and those are so big. This is the definition of
a market with things you don't need. I guess there are some practical items but
for the most part. Like this? Like a giant chicken or a corn? Oh man. It's on the door.
I don't know why the bikes go down here. It's so packed already. Oh there's a hostel.
I'm sure it's one of those hostels we saw that were very expensive per person.
I gotta imagine that one's $30 or more per person to sleep on a bunk bed. A
freaking bunk bed in a shared bathroom. There's really a lot of jewelry and stuff now.
They finally have your shoe size. Oh my god, this is the first time. All right, let's see
what's in the old market. Food? I think we're technically in it right now. Let's try left.
Wow, it just goes and goes. My gosh, it literally goes forever. This place is crazy. Now we're on
an actual street where cars can fit. So there will be cars. Yeah, it's like wow, it actually
opened up more but now that street has cars. Oh my gosh, those are some interesting things. Wow,
they're very large. This very scary looking street is where we're gonna go because why the frack
not? Whoa, there's a temple in here. That's cool. Very ridiculously high shoes.
That's how you add three inches to your height right there.
Whoa, this is, this is different. Very dark and creepy. This is creepy. Imagine if they didn't
turn on the lights that are hanging above here at night and it was just this dark.
The gate for Chinatown. Chinatown.
There's a kernel right there. Oh, that's cool. Illegal medical cannabis.
Icing and cinnamon. Mixed three flavors.
Sure. Yeah, we'll do it.
Thank you. This will be the background. That is outstandingly creepy. We're in Chinatown in
Thailand and we got some Japanese donuts. Interesting choice. Street donut time.
We got icing and cinnamon. We didn't want to get salted egg because salted egg, we're pretty sure
we would not like that. I don't know how this is icing. It just kind of seems like sugar coating.
So let's try it. They seem soft as nuts. Whoa. Very soft. That's really tasty.
Wow. That is really good. I like that a lot. The sugar on the outside is nice and sweet.
Wow. It's like a mini donut, but they don't deep fry it. So it's a little more doughy.
That's good. That's amazing. All right. Now the cinnamon. It smells very cinnamon-y
and it's brown. Ready for this? Oh yeah. It's cinnamon-y. That's really good. That one cinnamon
donut recently. That's super soft. Super doughy on the inside. I like the doughiness. It was $1.50
for eight donuts here. They're a bit small, but they taste amazing. And we're hungry.
We're cutting in. We don't know. This is the old market area. It just kind of seems like it's
pretty similar to the rest of all the other markets. There was some food on the street.
Obviously we got our donuts. We ate all eight. Very chubby. They were easy to eat. They were.
They just literally almost melted in your mouth. You had to chew it three times and then it was
gone. That's really incredible how much shopping they can fit into these super narrow, small
streets. We've been in here for hours. We're heading this way and this will conclude our
Chinatown epic day. This was crazy just walking around this place. I can't imagine how much more
there was to explore. Still, we didn't explore everything. I don't know how different it will be.
Not much. Yeah, this is straight up just like they have like dumplings and stuff like that,
but they don't even have things to cook them. You just bring them home and cook them yourself.
Interesting. Really cool. Totally different area now. I can't say that I know what 75% of these
things are. 75% might be an understatement. I know what that is. A chicken. I think you should get a
gold star. I know what that is. A cat. I don't think that's a cat. That cat didn't even move.
It almost got ran over by a motorcycle. They're too used to the crazers. I don't know what that is. A temple.
Let's go over here. This is nice. What? It's so quiet. It was so loud and now it's so quiet.
We're in the middle of the center of Bangkok. Whoa. There's a cat up there. It's interesting how colorful
this is and then around is like the kind of older parts of the city. That is pretty cool. It's a
beautiful Chinatown in Bangkok. It's been cool. Now we're going to try to find some
fracking food. Food, food, food, food. Can't serve that fracking food. We left Chinatown. It's time for lunch.
Yeah, it's time for lunch. It's time for some Thai food. Thai food? Really? What'd you get? I got some
green Thai curry. Oh, is it going to be spicy? We got our jelly right away. Thank you.
A rambutan jelly. A rambutan jelly. What is that going to taste like? I have no clue.
There's some rambutans in the bottom of it. It looks like. Smells like a candy. It is definitely jelly.
Whoa. Whoa. It's like a thicker or like a stickier jello. Whoa. It kind of reminds me of like a
pomegranate flavored thing. Really? It's really sweet and really strong and the texture of it is literally
it's in between a jelly and a jello. That is very interesting. Like it starts off as a jello texture
and then you swish it around a bit and then it's jelly. My spoon is a bit bigger. So I'm just
going to get the whole thing. Oh wow. Yeah, it doesn't just cut through. You have to dig a bit.
Oh, hopefully it's good because this is a massive bite. It's like the jelly part makes it like not
break apart. That's so interesting. It smells so sweet. It smells like candy and it's really great.
Wow, that's weird. So squishy. It tastes really good. I like that a lot. It's like more of a
there's like the fresh fruit candies or something like that. I don't know. Oh yeah, the ones that
like made with real fruit. It doesn't taste fake. There's some real pootens in there.
