More Bangkok markets

Three of us went to the local market the other day, each market is quite different but all of them have food and more food. The local MinBuri market did not disappoint, lots of plants, more clothes and local furniture, plus great treats for the palate. We first tried a latte to sample the coffee makers ability and we each had to try one from a different vendor. We also tried some fried pork, chicken and tuna pastry,  a sausage and fresh pineapple. That was lunch! Here is a view of the corridor in the market, quite amazing what Thai people can push into a small space!!

I came across these buckets my Oom Jan has made a living off for years. They look very similar to the ones he made for decades, but am sure the quality is not quite the same... or did he export these?
It seems everything is 'made in Thailand!'

Once we left the market we hailed  a taxi to take us home. It took awhile as several taxis waved us off... I guess three white guys scared them off!
