Where to buy cream whipper and chargers in khao san rd?

if you're near khao san already, just walk to banglamphu market on sipsam hang road. there's a small hardware store there that sells iSi chargers behind the counter, 180 baht for a 10-pack last time i checked. the bars on khao san charge like 300 for a single fill so it pays off quick. they close around 8pm though so go during the day

the tesco on ratchadamnoen klang is closer than going all the way to big c, just walk 10 mins from khao san towards the democracy monument. they keep chargers behind the counter sometimes so u might have to ask. but honestly if u want the best prices hit up the kitchen supply shops in china town, yaowarat road has a few that sell wholesale and its like 50 baht cheaper per box

there's a kitchen supply shop on soi rambuttri, the street parallel to khao san. it's called something like ban mai or similar, they sell iSi chargers way cheaper than the bars. turn left at the 7-eleven near the police box, it's like 3 mins walk. they also have the actual whippers if u need one

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
