food vendors The humble hawker is a traditional and characteristic figure all over Thailand, offering home-made specialities at prices below those in air-conditioned dining halls and major restaurants. The hawker may be stationary during the course of his serving hours or he may ramble along, pushing his cart or shouldering his baskets of paraphemalia. He may also be hawking his wares in a sole basket rested on a shoulder; or he may look as if he is moving house. Hawkers are easily found at street junctions on the walkways, around place of entertainment, along sois or lanes and practically everywhere else where there is space and crowd, like around office blocks, department stores, leisure parks and even in hospital ground. Put another way, for the enthusiastic visitor, Thailand is a Hawkers' Paradise. Information from: "Thai Hawker Food" published by Book Promotion and Service Ltd. I took the following pictures of roadside hawkers around my city.
