Any legit massage places after 10-11pm?

You will find plenty of spots on Sukhumvit Soi 33/1, they stay open until 2am most nights. The shops near the bottom of the soi charge around 300 baht for a foot massage and tend to be straightforward, no extras nonsense. I would skip the ones with flashing signs on the main Sukhumvit road itself, they are more likely to push for tips or upsells.

Another reliable option is the cluster of shops on Silom Soi 6, just off the main road. They stay open until midnight or 1am and charge 250-300 for foot or back massage, with no pressure to tip. The ones closer to the BTS end of the soi are the most straightforward. Just walk past the bars and look for the places with dim lighting and older staff, those are the legit ones.

If you're near the Ari BTS area, Soi Ari has a few spots that stay open until midnight or 1am. Look for the ones tucked in the side streets off the main soi, they do a solid 300 baht foot massage without any fuss. The ones right on the main road near the BTS tend to close earlier, around 10pm. I've had good luck at the shop next to the 7-Eleven on Soi Ari 2, they're open late most nights and the staff are no-nonsense.

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
