To my Thailand adventure companions...

i read recently an article tt changed my impression of MBK as Bangkok's shopping heaven. (it has been replaced by Chatuchak!)

[quote]"WHEN in Bangkok, go to Chatuchak weekend market. To say that it is big is an understatement. It is the mother of all mothers of markets. There are 15,000 stalls packed over 14ha. It is open on Saturdays and Sundays and 200,000 people visit it on each of the two days. There's a skytrain station right at its doorstep. The stalls sell a jaw-dropping range of goods - puppies, plants, crockery, cushions, antiques, screwdrivers, you name it, they've got it. The market is divided into maze-like sections, some trendier than others. You are almost guaranteed to get lost but that's part of the fun. You never quite know what you're going to stumble upon next, which also means that if you find something you like, buy it at once for chances of you locating the shop later will be slim. Which was how, 10 minutes after entering Chatuchak, I found myself clutching three bulging plastic bags."

Hey, if we ever have another chance at it again, here's an advise to my MacDonalds Pork Burger buddies [quote]"A colleague had recommended the beef noodle shop at MBK's sixth floor food court. Good choice. And on the fourth floor, you get crunchy pancake-like desserts for, what, 20 cents?"
