A recent thread on budget places ( ) to eat got me putting together a map for myself to find and visit the various suggestions. I thought I'd share here.

http://goo.gl/maps/S8HSn

I've tried to position the locations so that street view will show the place but I haven't been to many and may be off a little. And the comments can be mine or comments from others that I grabbed from. Most of these places are local thai joints with prices typically under 50 baht.

I love thai food and am always looking for a new place to try. I hope this is helpful to others. If you want to suggest another place, just leave a map link and I'll include it.

Put kiat Num on there (as my post 3/4) and I will make a positve comment.....otherwise your map is crap!

A great map. Thank you very much.

yes I agree....i think i was a bit harsh with my prior comment..SORRY

Crap really? Please enlighten us. As I recall you put down Lawrence Chee's higher priced venues. So what is wrong with beb's below 50 baht choices?

What's the matter with you, did you run out of your medication?

Thanks for putting in the efforts beb!

I included everything that had a map link on it. I'll be happy to include that place if you can figure out google maps.

Thanks!

Just for a second I was being selfish! The map is very useful, and appreciated. All for the cheapy venues..

Thanks for all your effort, beb. I had seen a pdf booklet "Where to eat in BKK for less than $1", but IMHO, this is a far better approach.

You now share the blame (with LawrenceChee) for screwing up my weight-loss efforts....

Done!

Please note though that coordinates as provided are not as accurate as map links. I think they establish the point on the road and not the specific location of the place. For instance, the image you provided of Khaw man kai is not at the coordinates. I assume it is somewhere close.

One addition, regarding "Khawtom " This place is the best in CM and has been around for at least over 30 years. It's another legendary place of CM. I've known this place for over 30 years and never seen a single farang eat there! The place is open from around 1700 to early morning.

It's has a mixture of crispyness and sour sweet and savory. Kanom beang (Savory Thai snack) is something I never seen any farang talk about. This place is another legendary of Chiang mai.

Best deep fried snack (no farang name). Must eat with dipping sauce.

This place is another legend. Open only at night time. The also have deep fried tofu.

I think this place has been around for over 20 years or longer.

... perhaps my latest additions are not useful huh

Edited September 23, 201213 yr by ARISTIDE

Hmm, Aristide, I thought I'd included everything. Can you let me know if anything is missing and I'll add it.

Thanks.

You've listed Nam Mae Ping as "NOT under 50B". Please correct this to "Some dishes under 50B".

Well done OP, nice work.

I hate to trouble you but there is a very good BBQ Northern Thai sausage (Sai-our) stall in "Mae Here Market" 100g of bbq sausage for only 25 bath. Another 10 bath for rice then it's a complete meal Thai style. Owner of this place doesn't smile a lot when I got there because there were too many customers!

No trouble at all Aristide. I'm happy to be able to add more so I can check out places I don't know. Please send me more!

There is one thing that I think would work better though and that is if you could pull up the location on google maps and look at it in street view, then get the link and send that. I think you get your coordinates from a gps unit and those are taken in the street so when I add the link, it shows up as in the middle of the street and can be difficult to know exactly where the location is (plus gps coordinates have a certain amount of possible error that adds to confusion). The map link or coordinates gathered from the map at the exact shop location really help.

I know it is an extra step but it would help me in making sure I post accurate data.

Thanks!

Thanks Mestizo,

Am I getting glitches on my end? These two links are sending me back to the Chiang Mai Eats map with no new locations. Just want to make sure if I need to do some internet rewiring.

Thanks!
