Determine What You can Purchase in Bangkok's Local Markets

Hi, my name is Sean Graham on behalf of Expert Village, sponsored by gotenkey.com. Today, we're going to the market. We're going to buy some supplies for the week so I can show you all the kinds of food that is available on the market. There is plenty of fruit here as you can see, for about ten to twenty baht per fruit. There are sausage rolls, as we call them in England, and plenty of cake at about ten baht for one piece. Three corn costs about twenty baht for one. You can buy potatoes here that cost you forty baht per kilo; onions will cost you about twenty baht per kilo and broccoli for about twenty baht for one head. You have prawn that will cost you about ninety baht per kilo. Here's our friendly store owner. We have squid for one-hundred fifty baht per kilo and shell fish or mussel for about fifty baht per kilo, some fresh fish, fresh meat, where you can buy pork from here for about eighty baht per kilo. You have plenty of chicken here for about seventy-five baht per kilo. A whole chicken will cost you around seventy baht per chicken. Fresh live fish about fifty baht per kilo - you can't get fresher than that. And if you really like them, you can buy really fresh, live frogs for about sixty baht per kilo.
