Tonight we are visiting the Sunday Night Market in Chiang Mai and right now we are at Thapea
Gate and this is where the market starts running one kilometer into the old city.
So we're going to be wandering around, sampling some food and showing you what it is like
over here on a Sunday.

So you can buy a lot of handicrafts here at this market.
For example, silk, scarves, wood carvings.
You can get some paintings.
They have ceramics.
Silverware.
Lots of jewelry.
I mean you can browse here for hours on end.
And trinkets galore.
Mmmmm.

When you get tired of walking around in the night market you can just head over here to
sit down and relax and get a nice Thai foot massage.
Thirty minutes for two dollars right?
Probably.

Actually it's 80 Baht for the foot massage.
You can get a cheaper one at the Chiang Mai park.

Sizzling noises.
Crowd noises.
One spring roll.
Yeah.
One tempura.
One of this.
One of this?
Ah, yeah one.
Well you sure loaded up with some tasty treats.
Okay, so this is my second dinner.
I have some deep fried tempura eggplant with a sweet and sour sauce on top and fresh spring
rolls with carrots and cilantro maybe and some noodles.
Okay, try one of them?
And that would be?
It tastes very healthy.
Hahaha!
Is it good?
Mmmm, it's not as flavorful as I would have hoped.
Here, have a look.
It's actually bean sprouts not noodles.
I was wrong.
Bean spouts and tofu and some carrots.
And what is this over here?
Well, I must have been a monkey in a past life because whenever I get a chance to try
a banana I'm always in there.
And this is the deep fried version.
So, it's already kind of smushed up here.
Awesome.
Does it have some kind of special sauce over top?
No, there is no special sauce it's just deep-fried and the banana is really mushy and moist in
the inside.
Okay, this is my tempura eggplant.
Mmmm.
Okay, that tastes a lot better.
It's almost like a french fry.
Can I say that?
Yep, it has a nice sweet and sour sauce over top and it's very oily.
Um, but that means it is very flavorful.
French fry on a stick.
