American chain restaurants are different in other countries. Like in Korea, you can get fried shrimp burgers at Burger King. So if you have the opportunity to visit another country you should definitely still check out their version of American food, might be completely different.

Besides that those chains are considered like the bottom of the barell chain restaurants here in the u.s. hardly anybody buys from those.

Bangkok has cuisines from all over the world and Western Fast Food chain should be your very LAST option imo. Thai food is great quality food available at the best price. Some days I felt up for a change and went for some Japanese (you get restaurants specializing on sushi, ramen, cafe type foods or katsu) or Chinese (available in all price ranges from full-fledged dinners to lunch type dim sum places) instead. you also get anything from italian, over french, to german, etc. again, thai is the very best option, but why the heck would you ever go for kfc or mcdonalds if you took the pains to travel there from the US? The most important travel tips for Bangkok imo are these: - use Grab (like uber) whenever possible to avoid having to haggle for the price - don't be a fool and do your sightseeing in the midday heat. the thai sun is POWERFUL! be sure to apply/wear plenty of sun protection and stay hydrated. I swear to God, most cases of lose motion people get in thailand has zero to do with any wrong food people had, but rather with people catching a heat stroke fr fr - for the love of God if you anyhow can, DO NOT DRIVE ANYWHERE on a Monday morning or a Friday afternoon/evening, ESPECIALLY anywhere near to and fro Paragorn mall area. Traffic is at a standstill during those times and you can easily sit in a cab for an hour for a 1km ride. You've got a better shot walking or taking the metro at those times. Better yet, book all your Thai massages and pool times on Friday afternoon/evening. Just avoid getting into any vehicle. Trust me, you'll thank me later

Sometimes McDonalds can be a treat when staying in Thailand. It is a change from Thai food. 555

Actually, most teenagers nowadays know at least basic English. So if you can’t speak Thai and need to ask anything, ask the teenagers or the seller, most of them know how to communicate. Thailand is a great country, spoken from a Thai.

Here are some more tips if you're going to Thailand! Try more Thai food rather than American fast food places, In Thailand they sell rly good Thai food at restaurants and it's not too expensive depending on where you go. If you're Muslim like me make sure to always check the ingredients when eating things like sausages, In Thailand they eat a lot of pork, and if you're in a restraunt ask for chicken instead of pork. There are 7-11s everywhere! and you can get a meal like fried-rice or sandwiches or just snacks like chips or sweets. Most ppl know at least basic English, I've lived there for 10 years and barley know any Thai (I'm not Thai) and it's not a problem so you don't need to worry that much, just learn simple things like 'Hello' or 'Thank you' or some numbers for money ig. If you want to order online they use apps like Lazada, Shein, Shopee, Food panda etc. You can use basic apps like youtube, instagram, facebook, tiktok, whatsapp and messenger there too. Thailand is very polluted tbh but just.. uhh ignore that It is very hot there y'all so don't bring clothes that are too heavy :/ Whatever you do, DO NOT drink tap water, you have to buy water there. but dw it's very cheap, from my experience you can get a huge bottle of water for around 20 baht (0.54 usd) Explore things like Malls, beaches, zoos, temples, parks, those r the things i recommend if you're a tourist, but don't wear revealing when going to temples your shoulders need to be covered and take your shoes off before going inside !! (only temples) This is just from my experience btw ^^

Sounds like a vally girl.

If you want a break from exclusively Thai food then Thailand is one of the best places in the world for international cuisine at really affordable prices. I had the best pizza I've ever had outside of Naples in Bangkok. Wood fired oven and just perfect charr on the crust and it was 6 USD. I also had an absolutely incredible gourmet burger and hand cut fries for a similar price and don't even get me started on their Sunday roasts. So all to say Western fast food chains are the absolutely last place I'd choose to eat in Thailand. Give your money to a local business that makes it fresh - not some multinational corporation with food that has less nutritional value than the environmentally awful packaging it came in.
