I love it when you take me to these unique shops!! Very different to me because, even though I have an Indian Shop here, it is a tiny little excuse of a place!
The moment you walked up to the gate of the Sampeng Market. the original shopping mall in Bangkok, I was in a trance. I love these old places, filled with history. If only the walls could talk and tell me of the people who pass through here in their time. I wonder about them!
The Hindu temple is gorgeous, with its golden shikhara. I have always admired them, but, know they are not about beauty.I spy the sweets in the tea shop! I am so glad you stopped for a few minutes and gave us a birds-eye view of the place. Their sweets look delectable, but, that is all it is for me. I don't eat much sugar at all, so sweets are not what I would be looking for. But, I love it when people enjoy them. Panjab Sweets seems like a nice tea room, but, it feels more like a coffee shop, although I cannot explain what I really mean.
Tea Rooms that I have been to have big chairs, tables, things for comfort, but perhaps they were Chinese tea rooms. :) Anyway, I am glad you got plenty of tumeric and that you made it home as you crossed shortcuts at dark! Stay safe!!here have been some really interesting ways that #MarketFriday has been presented, all of which adds all the more charm to the mixing bowl. The challenge points out our differences, but, then, it also shows many things our cultures share. When the day is done, it shows off how human we all are and how we basically all care about our families and others. I love the experience of it all. I appreciate the love and support given to #MarketFriday! Thank you! Truly! Your participation adds a piece of your world, and I have to say, people are interested in is seeing it. This entire challenge has opened up the world to me and so many others. Thank you again for being a part of all this! I hope you have a fabulous day! Hive on!!

So glad you like the old market place and old part of Bangkok. Yup! I couldn’t understand how people could eat those super sweet Indian treats! My dentist would scold at me!!
You’re right it looks more like a coffee shop or a fast food restaurant! Tea room is something else! A whole new experience. But Indian people are busy people with practical needs so they just stop for a quick meal with sweets and strong spice tea to wash down the sugar and cholesterol! LoL
I know! It is true! Not at all like any tearoom that I have seen. I did love the old market place! Thank you so much for giving us a good look at it.
