I felt the heat creep up on me slowly as I walked off the airplane. Even inside the airport terminal, I could feel the oppressiveness of it. The closer I got to the exit, the more the heat engulfed me and the more my reality set in. And then the sliding doors opened and here I was, in the middle of hundreds of people, and a suffocating heat that made every pore in my body scream. Hello, Bangkok.
We had just about 24 hours to explore the bustling city before
heading to Singapore, so after checking into the hotel, we hit the streets to
find our first meal. A restaurant wouldn’t do. We were hungry for more than
that; a cart by the side of the road, filled with mysterious delicacies only
seemed appropriate. After all, we were in Bangkok.
