If you are a non-Thai living in Bangkok, Thailand, or just someone who loves food that is not Thai food, you will soon find yourself trying to find the best places to buy imported food in Bangkok.
Luckily, buying imported food in Bangkok, although not cheap, is easy. Many supermarkets, stores and specialty shops sell imported food from countries like the US, the UK, Japan, Korea, China, Germany, France and Italy and most of them are quite easy to get to.
Villa Market — Of course, one of the most popular places in Bangkok to buy imported food is Villa Market. With several branches around the city, the most famous one is on Sukhumvit Road Soi 33, just down the road and across the street from Emporium Mall. It might be difficult to bring home fresh durians from Thailand, so your closest bet are freeze-dried ones.
Besides durian, you can also find other types of fruits such as mango and rambutan. They make for great everyday snacks and can be kept for a long time. These tiny cookies are called Khanom Phing and are a popular Thai snack. Crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, these coconut-flavoured cookies will melt in your mouth. Another fruity snack, this is great compared to freeze-dried fruits 8 if you enjoy thin crisp with more crunch. The taste of the fruits is also more subtle compared to the freeze-dried ones, making them very popular Thai snacks among those who have a lighter palate.
Hi-Chew can be found in most supermarkets in Singapore and is a chewy, flavoured candy loved by most. However, instead of just the sweet ones, Thailand also carries the sour versions! These candies make for pick-me-up snacks, especially if you need to combat a food coma after lunch.
Another popular street snack, the Thai Crepe can be found everywhere in Thailand. They look like tacos and are stuffed with either sweet or savoury fillings. Those golden yellow strands at the top are egg yolk threads that give extra flavour to this bite-sized dish.
Buy these on the last day of your trip, pack them in sealed containers, and bring them home! Thailand offers crickets or silkworms in a variety of flavours that include seaweed and cheese. Better get some before you come home lest it bugs you! These chips are extremely crispy but are packed into a tin in bite-sized rolls for minimal fallout. The squid smell can be quite fragrant — or pungent, depending on how much you like squid.
This is a popular snack that most people buy home from Thailand because of its great taste and ease of sharing. These Thai snacks are also available in a spicy version! Kalamare, or Kan-mare, is a sweet and sticky dessert found in Thailand. It is often served during weddings as an auspicious dessert so that the couple will have a sweet and lasting marriage.
Kalamare is made from coconut and sticky rice and can be found in small pieces wrapped in leaves or paper. These are made from real milk and provide calcium — sort of a healthy option compared to other Thai snacks out there! Yes, we can find Pretz and Pocky snacks easily in Singapore, but Thailand offers a wider range of flavours, with many unique ones that can only be found in Thailand. Look out for banana-flavoured Pocky sticks, which are manufactured and sold in Thailand, and are harder to find outside of the country.
