palomnik Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Does anybody know whether Kad Chin Haw (the Chinese Friday market) is closed this week? February 16 is Chinese New Year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FolkGuitar Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I wasn't even aware that there was a Chinese market. Please... would you give us the location and times that it's open? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mahseer Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 Likely referring to the extension of the Muslim market off Soi 1 Changklan. It sits behind Kalare. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sits behind Kalare. That's the one. Since a large contingent is Muslim Chinese (who as far as I know don't celebrate New Year) it may be open. It runs from 6 a.m. to noon on Fridays. You'll see a variety of things for sale that you'll have a hard time finding elsewhere in town, like pickled bean curd and other pickled vegetables, Chinese steamed buns, real Chinese congee, vegetables that you may not see anywhere else in town except occasionally at Muang Mai market (like asparagus), fresh herbs, Chinese sausage and Burmese spices. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the tip! I'll have to investigate. I love to cook Chinese dishes, but there are a few ingredients that are often hard to find in the local fresh markets or even Wararote. I'm on the lookout for dried lily buds... Edited February 13, 2018 by FolkGuitar 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EzekielRage Posted February 13, 2018 Share Posted February 13, 2018 I forgot to reply to a guy in another thread, but it's also where you can buy really good black bean sauce. Enter through the entrance closest to chang klan, walk past the motorcycle parking area and keep an eye out for the stalls on the left hand side for jars with an all red label and lid. I think the label with a slightly yellow logo is Sichuan sauce. Both about 50bt but it's been a while for me. Tasty snacks like samosas can be found on the middle row.
