Where to get electronics fixed?

ProCorner's fine if you want someone who speaks English well, but they're not the cheapest in Fortune Town. The smaller stalls on the same floor will do the job for less if you're patient explaining the problem. If you're out this way, there's also a shop called IT City on the ground floor at Seacon Square that does quick diagnostics for free, though they'll try to sell you a new laptop if the repair seems tricky.

yeah fortune town's solid but if ur near siam area, check out mbk center too - the 4th floor has a bunch of laptop repair shops and they're pretty used to tourists. just avoid the ones near the entrance, they tend to overcharge

Fortune Town is still your best bet, the third floor has a whole row of repair stalls and most of them deal with English speakers regularly. ProCorner is still there but honestly I'd just walk around and compare quotes first, prices vary by like 200-400 baht between shops for the same job. If you're closer to Sukhumvit, there's a decent place called Notebook Service on Soi 23 that's been around forever and charges flat rates rather than trying to upsell you on parts you don't need.

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
