Yaowarat Seafood Stalls (Multiple Vendors)
Yaowarat Seafood Stalls (Multiple Vendors)
Along the main road, competing seafood vendors display prawns the size of lobsters, fish still moving in tanks, crab claws that could break fingers.
You point, they weigh, you nod or negotiate, they cook it three ways (grilled, steamed, or fried with garlic).
The display is the menu. Prices are usually posted but always negotiable. Quality is generally excellent because turnover is constant—nothing sits long enough to go bad when crowds stay thick until midnight.
Monika's Tip
The giant prawns everyone photographs cost ฿600-900 each. Walk past them to the regular-sized prawns—฿300 for four, tastier, and you don't feel obligated to Instagram your dinner."
