Frequently asked questions

Where is the most famous mango sticky rice in Bangkok?

K. Panich on Tanao Road in the Old Town, near the Giant Swing, is the one with the history and a Michelin Bib Gourmand, and it is open Monday to Saturday from 07:00 to 17:00. Mae Varee at the mouth of Soi Thong Lo is the other famous name, open every day from 06:00 to 22:00 a short walk from BTS Thong Lo.

How much does mango sticky rice cost in Bangkok?

Expect about ฿80 to ฿120 a box at a street cart or market stall and about ฿120 to ฿180 at the famous shops, depending on the size and the mango. Cafés with seating, such as Make Me Mango near Wat Pho, charge a little more. Prices rise outside mango season.

When is mango season in Thailand?

Nam Dok Mai, the mango most shops use, peaks from about March to June, when the fruit is sweetest and cheapest. Shops sell mango sticky rice all year, but fruit from October to December tends to be a little more tart and costs more.

Where can I get mango sticky rice late at night in Bangkok?

Joom on Sala Daeng Road in Silom runs until 01:00 (closed Mondays), Mae Jim on Banthat Thong Road until about midnight, and Mae Varee and Ning's Mango Stand in Thong Lo until about 22:00. Chef Ple at Sukhumvit Soi 18 is reported to stay open around the clock in mango season.

Where is the best mango sticky rice near the Grand Palace and Wat Pho?

Make Me Mango on Maha Rat Road is a few minutes' walk from Wat Pho and has air conditioning. K. Panich is about 15 minutes away on foot near the Giant Swing, and across the river Saleethip is a short walk inland from Wat Arun.

Where can I find colorful or rainbow mango sticky rice?

Cho Sornkaew in Lat Phrao is known for sticky rice in nine colors, each dyed with a natural ingredient such as butterfly pea or pandan. It is out in the north of the city, so most visitors go only if the colored version is the point.

Nam Dok Mai or Ok Rong, which mango should I choose?

Nam Dok Mai is the classic, golden and perfumed, and it is what most shops serve. Ok Rong is sweeter and less fragrant. Mae Varee, Saleethip and Wanjai Cafe House let you choose between them.
