On the first night when I got to Siam after seeing the malls and going to ocean world I went on a social organized by the hostel, we took the skytrain and a taxi to this street across town with a whole bunch of restaurants, bars, and clubs. The first place that we went to was ok, the music was good but it was super super loud so we decided to leave. we went down the street to this lounge called "Mello Yello".One of the girls from the hostel was in love with the furniture(it was pretty nice). it was super chill and there was this amazing band playing. the piano player was amazing, i couldnt even see his fingers moving. and the girl singing sounded exactly like all of the artists they were covering. The coolest part was that she barely spoke any english at all, only thai, and was singing everything from Whitney Huston and Jason Mraz . after that we got dropped off at some other night club called "Spicy" buy a taki driver and left pretty soon after.
The second night Roger was off shopping and Sam and I decided to check out the little night market across the street from where we were staying. Just inside the main gates there was a bunch of cages stacked up like a doll house and in each one was a little bunny in a dress. a live bunny in a tiny dress. quite adorable. they were each only 150 Baht ($5).
other shops also sold thing like weapons (swords, guns, baseball bats). on one side was a soccer stadium with a match going on and the other there was a bunch of large tents set up. Under the tents it kinda reminded me of all the stands set up in that building at the PNE. but it was really un-organized and they were selling weird things like toilet paper and what not. the other part was a bunch of food stalls where they had every thai food you could think of. there was one shop set up that had piles of things like cockroaches, maggots, grasshoppers and other insects. we decided not to try them because i could barely stomach street food at this point so maybe later in my trip. I bought some cotton candy like thing that came with some green pancake stuff. the pancakes were good but the cotton candy stuff not so much. once we got back to the hostel we discovered that you are supposed to wrap the cotton candy in the pancake. it tastes much better that way. we waited till Roger left for the airport and then just went to bed.
