How common is it for Bangkok condos to have BBQ Areas?

They could easily have provided an area residents can book for BBQs but they haven't. Why when such amenities are quite common in condos in places like Singapore is a not a thing here? Or is it?

In my experience in Singapore you have to book the BBQ area, sometimes with a small fee and you can even consume alcohol (responsibly).

I can only assume they think residents wouldn't behave themselves. Despite it being against the law, my condo gets quite a few Air BnB guests who might be less concerned about causing a nuisance to neighbours but you could get around that with the booking system (direct by owners only). Maybe Thai people are less into BBQs, it's readily available on the street. Thoughts?

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
