Top Late Night Eats In Bangkok

Everyone knows very well Bangkok is one of the destinations to go if you want to party in the city’s buzzing nightlife. With all the bars, clubs, pubs, and entertainment information circulating the web, people have often asked what to do after the clubs close (as most places do close quite early, midnight or at 2am). If you happen to have a nasty hangover, home is the place to be. However, for some, they usually get hungry after a night of dancing and grooving to the loud beats. If you don’t feel like going home just yet, here are top 5 late night eats not to be missed in Bangkok. Might as well go home on a full stomach, no?

Street Food on Sukhumvit Soi 38
