泰国的消费水平不高,不管是美食还是购物,都比广州要便宜30%左右。因此,曼谷的美食和购物是很值得推荐的节目。
泰国菜讲究酸、辣、咸、甜、苦五味的互相平衡,通常以咸、酸、辣为主,而带着一点甜,大量使用香料和椰奶,很是有特色。我们在泰国的10天,除了早上酒店的自助早餐意外,基本上以泰国菜为主,冬阴功更是每顿必点的,到最后尽管有点想念中国菜,但相比在欧洲的时候到最后闻到三明治就想吐是要幸福的多了。(Siam附近的Home Kitchen餐馆,在这里,我们吃到了泰国之行最美味的咖喱蟹)餐馆的选择主要参考了Frodo's Choice和众多攻略的介绍。我在出发之前,准备了以下餐馆:

Fodor's Review:
This casually upmarket Siam Square restaurant is where the locals go if they want to enjoy skillful, authentic Thai cuisine in an atmosphere that's a couple of notches above that of the simple family restaurants. The room is dark, comfortable, and inviting, filled with big round tables. Start with the sensationalkhung sa oug

Fodor's Review:
A true hole-in-the-wall across the street from Langsuan Soi 6, this kitchen shines as one of the best places in the city for authentic local cuisine; it's where many local groups of friends go to celebrate the simple act of eating delicious food. Don't miss the

Polo Fried Chicken Member Rating: **** 4.2 Ø Ø Ø Ø Ø Fodor's Review: After offering only a lunch menu for decades, Polo Fried Chicken finally responded to its unwaning popularity by expanding its hours until 10 PM. The addition of an air-conditioned dining room is also a recent concession to its loyal clientele. Here you'll get world-class fried chicken, flavored with black pepper and plenty of golden-brown garlic; the best way to sample it is with sticky rice and a plate of Ø Ø Ø Pen Ø Ø Ø Ø Ø Ø Fodor's Review: This spacious restaurant has little atmosphere, but it's where the true seafood aficionados go to splurge. Though it's expensive by Thai restaurant standards, it's still a bargain compared to hotel restaurants, and many dishes here cannot be found outside of Ø Patara Fine Thai Cuisine 对以上餐馆有兴趣的朋友,可以参考我在Google Earth上标注的地图: (上图是曼谷的总览,Amari Atrium是头几天住的酒店,Amari Watergate是我们最后一天住的酒店,Central World、Emporium是购物点,四面佛是旅游景点,其他就是餐馆) (Central World附近的明细地图) 需要留意的是,泰国的餐馆与国内的餐馆不同,他们都有营业时间,下午2点-5点都会关门不营业,所以各位朋友记住不要光顾着逛街,错过了饭点。 冬阴功(Tom Yam Gong,酸辣虾汤)、Red Curry Prawn(红咖喱大虾)、Curry Crab(咖喱蟹)、Baked Fish(烤鱼)、Tom Tim Krob(椰奶甜品)是我们最常点的菜,也是我们觉得最有特色的泰国菜。 购物,我们则去了Siam Paragon、Emporium和Central World,建议多买国际品牌和本地特色品牌,寻常的衣服、鞋子等等东西估计大部分都是Made in China,国内的价格更有优势。Naraya是一个泰国本地品牌的女包店,在Central World等地方都能找到分店,价格确实便宜(几十人民币为主)而且产品有特色,里面几乎给中国人包了,都是十个八个的买。至于化妆品和烟酒,留待最后在曼谷机场买吧,那里的免税店比首都机场、白云机场都要强得多。
