현지인이 찾는 Rod Fai Market in Bangkok

방콕의 신상 야시장인 딸랏롯파이는 밤이 찾아오면 더욱 빛나는 방콕에서도도 최고 규모의 빈티지 테마의 야시장으로

먹거리, 쇼핑, 빈티지 상점, 바 구역 등으로 나뉘어져 있다. 

이곳에서는 렝쎕도 즐길 수 있다. 렝쎕은 잘 삶은 돼지갈비를 쌓아서 그위에 고수와 고추 육수를 얹은 음식이다.

1인분도 즐길 수 있지만 5~6인분도 한화 약 2만 500원 정도로 즐길 수 있는데,

그 어마어마한 양에 식당 내 손님은 물론, 스튜디오의 방청객까지 놀라움을 전한다.

This lens was used as I left my EF70-200mm lens in the hotel,

to reduce my camera bag weight as long lenses will not be needed when strolling in the night market.
