Hi, does anybody know where can i get miniatures alcohol bottles in bangkok ?

honestly the best spot is Chinatown on Yaowarat road, there's a bunch of old school liquor shops near the Odeon Circle that sell miniatures by the crate. they're mostly Thai whiskey like SangSom and Mekhong but you'll find the imported stuff too if you dig around. prices are way cheaper than 7-Eleven, like 30-40 baht for the local ones. just wander down the main strip around 5pm when they're all open and you'll see racks of them outside

Villa Market on Sukhumvit Soi 33 has a decent selection, usually by the wine section. They stock those tiny Smirnoff and Jack Daniels bottles, around 50-80 baht each. If you're near a bigger supermarket like Tops or Foodland, check their liquor aisles too, though it's hit or miss depending on the branch.

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
