TGIF

But it's not like the week has been difficult.  Lol






We took a Grab to Laap Tong Yang Restaurant.  Ordered pork laap, fermented sour pork sausage, buffalo laap and sticky rice.

It's pretty common for Thais eat Buffalo Laap raw.  I opted for the cooked version!


We didn't eat here, but I thought I would return.  People have asked how difficult it is to order food in Thailand.  Well, almost everywhere you go there are photos in the menus.  I'd say it's very easy!


I ordered one of these drinks.







This Irish pub was a place I had read about.  We got there for an early dinner.  Very nice atmosphere!

Decent Old-Fashioned!

After dinner, we enjoyed the Kad Kongkao Walking Street Market, which was the primary reason I was trying to get to that little area of the Old City.  It was a cute, small market.  Ended up buying a Buddha lamp and some hand-painted shot glasses.  We also talked with a beautiful young German lady who was on an extended trip (for months) in Southeast Asia.  She's living the life!

Hmmm

The King!

After the smaller market, we took a Songthaew outside of the city walls to the Chiang Mai Night Bazaar.  It operates every night.  And it's huge.  There are some smaller night markets near CMNB: Anusarn Night Market, Pavillion Night Market, Kalare Night Bazaar and Ploen Ruedee Night Market.  Chill Square food court at Anusarn Night Market is a nice place for dinner.  Kalare Night Market also has a great food center. 
 We just scoped it all out.  No shortage of delicious food in this city!



I'm enjoying the shot glasses I bought at Kad Kongkao Walking Street Market.
