Absolutely love the first picture of the bbq pork that comes up on clicking on the nine temples link
I am trying to browse the eating thread here on flyertalk but there is so much I think we will just eat what looks good while walking around. The wife is vegetarian with no seafood so it will be a lot of fresh fruits and whatever else veg stuff we can find (maybe Anotoi)
I think this is what we have so far for her to build something around. We will have one day by ourselves and then two days with Jan before leaving for Phuket.
1) Some temples (maybe Mae Nak Phra Khanong) , Grand Palace and Wat Phra Kaeo
2) food - the nytimes article is in my first email, can we also use this
http://importfood.com/saochingcha_guide.html as another guide ? I would love to sample a lot of different dishes and not sit in a fancy restaurant.
3) Tor Kor market
4) 'Love Scene' on 23 near Cowboy for fresh seafood - I love seafood.
5) Want to try Durian (if in season)
6) traditional thai massage outside wat pho or heartland spa ?
All suggestions welcome!

9 Sacred Temples. If it's your first time to Bangkok, it will take in the usual favorites (Golden Mount, Wat Po, Wat Phra Kaeo, Wat Arun) while exposing you to some lesser known places.
