Sim racing arcade in Bangkok?

another option is PlayVR at central world, they have a few racing sims with the moving seats and VR. it's on the 6th floor near the cinema area, not as intense as the bangla road setup but still gets the job done. i'd call ahead to check if the motion rigs are available since they rotate equipment sometimes

There's a spot called Sim Race Garage on Ratchada, they've got a few motion rigs with VR setup. I haven't tried it myself but a friend said it's decent.

Yeah there's one called Race Hub near Ekkamai, they've got rigs with motion and VR. Not sure if they're still open though, it's been a while since I went.

Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but I've always found their som tam a bit tame on the pla ra. If you want the real funky version, try the shophouse spots along Soi Udomsuk 26, near the night market end. They pound it fresh with fermented fish that'll clear your sinuses, and it's like 60 baht. Different style from the On Nut places, more Lao-leaning.

for som tam specifically i'd say the Isaan spots in Chatuchak are underrated, weekdays only though since the weekend crowd ruins the vibe. there's a stall near gate 2 that does tam pa with fermented bamboo shoots, super sour and funky, not something you see much in On Nut. if you're already heading north for Or Tor Kor anyway its worth the detour.

honestly the som tam at Krua Dok Mai Kao is good but what got me hooked is their nam prik pla raa dip with the raw veggies, that funk hits way harder than the papaya does. think most people sleep on it cuz they just order the som tam and gai yang. also pro tip, go before noon on weekdays, after that teh pla ra gets milder cuz they batch it for the lunch rush
