If you want the real thing — Thai food cooked for Thai people at Thai prices — Lard Roi Pet is the one. No tourist markup, no watered-down spice, just rows of vendors doing what they do every night. Som tam, charcoal-grilled meats, pad thai off the wok, seafood, mango sticky rice. Bring cash and an empty stomach, and when you can't read the menu, just point at whatever the queue's buying. That's never let anyone down.
