What Google Reviewers Say About Zawgyi Bar & Bistro (Bangkok)
★ 5 — Lara Coimbra
Had never had Burmese food, but thanks to this place we had a really good first impression of it! The food was amazing! We had the garlic noodles, fried tofu, sticky rice cake and sweet&sour rice bowl. 10/10
★ 5 — M Maung
If you are craving for Burmese food in Bangkok, this is one of the restaurants you must visit. They also serve Burmese style Indian food. Variety of options on the menu. Owner and staffs are very friendly. Great vibe in the evening with live music.
★ 5 — Asia Apparel
Very nice Myanmar restaurant. The grill pork neck very nice that we ordered 2 plates. Clean, neat and good service. Simple life band setup for a relaxing dinner.

🍚 Bangkok rice porridge (khao tom & jok) — where locals go
🌙Rice congee set ฿60–120
Khao Tom Pratunam (24-hour legend)
Chinese-Thai rice soup (khao tom) — thin, silky, fragrant · Pratunam market area
Bangkok's most famous late-night khao tom (rice soup). Open 24 hours since 1965. Chinese-Thai style congee with pork, seafood, or century egg. Extremely popular 11pm–3am.
💡 Order the 'khao tom set' (฿70) — rice soup + side dishes. Add a raw egg to stir in. Century egg (kai yiao ma) is essential, not optional. Best at 1–2am when atmosphere is peak.
👑Jok ฿50–80
Jok Prince (Silom original)
Thai jok — thick rice porridge, breakfast food · Silom area
Bangkok's most famous jok (thick rice porridge) vendor. Pork meatballs, liver, century egg, ginger, scallions. Thai-style jok is thicker than Chinese congee — almost like cream of rice.
💡 Jok is traditionally a breakfast food (5–11am). Order extra ginger and white pepper. The raw egg stirred in adds richness. Queue forms early — arrive by 7am on weekends.
☀️Congee ฿60–100
Yod Tan (Thai-Chinese Morning Shop)
Cantonese-influenced fish congee · Yaowarat / Chinatown
Traditional Yaowarat-style open-shop rice porridge. Watch the huge woks simmering all night. Fish congee (khao tom pla) is the specialty — whole fish steamed in the porridge.
💡 Chinatown area has the most authentic 24-hour congee spots. Fish congee with ginger and sesame oil is the most Thai-Chinese dish you can try. Eat with the provided dipping sauces.
📱 Thai SIM card guide — which to buy & where
📶Tourist SIM ฿299–599 (7–30 days, unlimited data with speed cap at 1GB/day after fair-use)
True Move H
Best for tourists — widest 5G coverage
Thailand's most tourist-friendly SIM. Pre-registered SIM — no Thai ID needed. Airtime + data bundled. International calls included on some packages.
💡 Buy at airport arrival hall (counter clearly marked). 7-day unlimited: ฿299. 30-day unlimited: ฿599. Activate by scratching the code and calling the number on the package.
🔵Tourist SIM ฿299–499 (7–30 days)
DTAC (now NT)
Good coverage, reliable speeds
Former competitor to AIS and True, now merged with NT. Good 4G coverage countrywide. Some promotions beat True on price — worth comparing at airport.
💡 Look for the blue logo. Registration sometimes required at counter vs True's self-activate. Ask staff to help register if purchasing at mall location.
🔴Tourist SIM ฿299–699 depending on data bundle
AIS
Thailand's largest carrier — rural and island coverage
Best carrier for visiting islands or rural Thailand — coverage where others drop out. Koh Samui, Pai, Khao Yai all have reliable AIS signal.
💡 AIS Passport SIM specifically designed for tourists — most commonly recommended if traveling outside Bangkok. Ask for the 'AIS TOURIST SIM' specifically.
Quick tips:
- •Bring your unlocked phone — Thai SIM cards are nano/micro/standard and shops will cut to size
- •Buy at airport arrival immediately — skip the roaming bill. Setup takes 3 minutes.
- •Line app (Thailand's WeChat) uses data, not SMS — WhatsApp works fine too
- •5G coverage: only Bangkok and major cities. Everywhere else is 4G (still fast)
- •Tethering/hotspot allowed on all tourist SIMs — great for traveling with tablets
