welcome to bangkok today we're doing bangkok on a budget we're going to see how much money
we spend in a day in the city i'm going to show you the cheapest place to eat in the whole city
of bangkok and also a robotic barista also going to be visiting a temple and using the metro to
show you how to do it so let's go and start the day we are going to get some breakfast we're not
sure what we're going to get i'm going to have a look at the little food stores along here
and if not going to 7-eleven i think you want to have some bakery goods don't you i'm going
to a bakery so yeah i'm just going to have a little sauce you love it all you love it all
right pork fried rice
so we've just got our breakfast and we'll show you back the room at what we have
so i have got something which i pretty much eat almost every day and that is fried rice
but look how much fried rice there is there's so much and this only cost 40 baht which is such a
good price the way to get a price like this is to go to one of the street vendors as you saw
and and they will do it so much cheaper than going into like a restaurant where you'll at least
spend 60 baht or 80 bar for a fried rice so and the portion here is so good as well
yeah that hits the spot for breakfast so we are moving out of this airbnb because this
is very expensive and we decided to treat ourselves for a couple of nights but now
we're moving to a much cheaper hotel just down the street and and so we will see you there
so we have just arrived at our new hotel and this is i think 320 baht at night
which yeah is that right yeah yeah um excuse the washing in the background we had a washing machine
at our last place which was really good but some of the stuff still doesn't dry so hence our room
is sort of coated in random clothing items but it looks quite funny with the background
we also have a fake window it's quite nice it's quite bright though
for a non-window room it's quite good it's quite good so we're gonna go to a
little park nearby and we're gonna try and get some drinks from this vending machine
which looks really cool and i think the prices are pretty cheap there too so let's
go so we're going to get some drinks on this little vending machine which is probably
a proper coffee barista but it's robotic so let's have a look it's called pow bin beverage
so this iced cafe latte cost 40 baht and from that robotic machine and it is so cool
it's very cool but it takes it takes longer than i thought to like make cats yeah it's like they're
probably making it because this coffee took like three minutes to make and so you just have to wait
like even though there was a queue and it was a bit awkward but i mean it's fine but
it's actually really good coffee as well so there must be a proper coffee machine in there
doing the business but yeah 40 baht definitely recommend trying it out if you're in bangkok
what did you guess media i've got a strawberry soda which took a lot quicker to make but it's
actually very good and that was only 35 baht so yeah so pretty good prices the only place
you can get cheaper coffee in bangkok is 711 which costs about 30 baht so we're gonna jump
on the metro now and head to watarung which is a big temple across the other side of the city
okay so that journey which was like 25 minutes cost 35 baht one way so not too bad so we just
arrived at china we think that's how you say we're probably saying blue you're wrong but this is like
touristy area near the river so let's go oh nice okay so we've just been walking around and we're
looking to try and get a little boat across to the other side so we're going to the famous water run
which is the tall temple so we're going to get the little ferry across and it's only four bar
per person to cross the river which is really really cheap not sure if you can see it but
here just behind this is water room i'll try and get a better angle so there you go bear full bar
wow
no okay okay so we are in wat urung and it cost us 100 baht to get in with three waters
we got two free waters which is quite nice and it's so quiet here there's hardly anyone
wow look how cool that is the detail is insane
so we've just been exploring around this beautiful temple which is actually the first one we've been
to in thailand and it's beautiful like the the actual detail in this temple is incredible and
there's so much gold so at the top of the other one the top of that one that's actual
like proper gold which must cost so much money earlier on the monks were praying inside there
so cool jumping back in the metro and we're heading to chinatown now
which should be really cool and yeah let's head there on the metro
we just got to chinatown and we're going to head to our favorite bubble tea place
which has really cheap bubble tea and yeah it's like a chain it's a
chain in thailand and we can use it all the time it's so good mama's bubble tea
it's so good every time i have it it gets better so this um so this mama's bubble iced tea
bubble tea bubble tea cost 29 bar each which is really such good value compared to other
brands and honestly it tastes so so good we added some these original pearls and strawberry jellies
but it's honestly amazing definitely recommend checking out mama's bubble tea here in thailand
so we've just come into this chinese restaurant
and it looks like it's made really good we ordered some duck and some
i think it looks like that yeah thank you thank you look at that
okay sweet on sauce
this is some sauce apparently ah thank you thank you so we also got this free soup the mini soup
after the meal and honestly it is so good i don't know what is it but it's actually insane
so one of the things if you don't want to use the metro then you can actually
use grab and we've used it a couple of times it's basically an app where you get really
cheap taxis and you basically don't have to bargain with like the tuk-tuks and the taxis
and it honestly saves a lot of money and a lot of hassle you can also order food from there
which we've done a couple of times and it's amazing so definitely recommend downloading
grab if you're in bangkok or if you're in thailand so we're gonna go have dinner in
terminal 21 on the top floor which is the cheapest place to eat in the whole of bangkok
this guy from america who lives here told us it's actually the best place to eat so let's go there
thank you
so here we go for only 30 baht which is the best we've ever seen like anywhere in thailand and
the next best was 50 baht but it tastes so good still
and so and it's a decent portion so it's very far can't go wrong here we go
so i thought i'd explain pier 21 which is the place where we just ate and basically you get
this card and you put money on this card and you basically hand it to whichever like food store you
go to and they basically slide swipe the card and take the money off but the food is so cheap there
you can get cheap fruit and yeah i just definitely recommend checking it out because it's so good
such good value and so many people eat there so yeah join join the crowds and eat cheap in bangkok
this is very random but this is actually a toilet basically it's a toilet base like the london tube
and it looks so cool in the toilet they actually have automatic bum guns and you can change the
water temperature you can actually blow dry your bum it's so cool and it feels so futuristic it's
something i feel like i'd see in japan or something so today we spent 430 baht which
is just under 10 pounds which is amazing value for money in bangkok and obviously we did go to very
cheap places but to just show you how cheap you can actually live and travel in bangkok
obviously you're not going to going to go to temples every day i hope this video was useful

i'm so excited for that to head up north and see how different it is from the south so see you then
