Where will I buy groceries and do other shopping in Thailand?
When we asked people living in Thailand about good local restaurants, they mentioned...
"I am lucky enough to have both a Tesco Lotus and a Big C right by me, with several fresh markets also. If you must have your expensive food imports from home, there is Villa market on Sukhumwit. 7/11 stores are everywhere with many heat and eat foods available," explained one expat living in Bangkok, Thailand.
"People living in Thailand typically buy groceries from local markets, convenience stores, and supermarkets. Other shopping can be done at department stores, shopping malls, and street markets. Many people also shop online for convenience," said another in Thailand.
