    Great trip over the river mate, you could have hung about on the railway a bit more to Thonburi station but that's what I did. That canal was actually the river before and it winds back round to the river. They dug a channel to give the river a shortcut. Good to see Gary too.

    Great video Chai ... Been to BKK on and off for 25+ years and never much got across the river until recently ... Obviously some great things to see over there like Talat Phlu market, etc. ... Jotting down some resto recommendations as well from Gary's videos west of the river for when I'm back in Thailand in a few weeks ... Cheers from (cold) Canada ...

    Americano. Name comes from ww2. Italian baristas serving the US soldiers found the what we know as long black too strong so Watered down the espresso. So they just labelled the drink an Americano. Iced Americano is a SEA thing.

    That's the drip espresso with water . Americans are highly caffeinated on coffee. The story goes that American GI'S situated in Italy during WW2 couldn't handle the increased bitterness of Italian espresso. So, in order to have a coffee like their drip coffee back home, they started watering down their espresso. 😅
    I can say I've had my fair share of really good Americano in thailand, however I just bring my coffee pot wherever I go with doi Chang, premium or not!

    As far as I know (or remember), nobody in my family back in the States dresses up their coffee. Black coffee, that's the only way I drink it. Only when black is not offered will I occasionally have cream (?) and sugar in it. Most Thais think that straight black coffee is too bitter.

    • @Chai_Travel
      @Chai_Travel  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Aaha! That must be why. I’ve just read as well that it comes from ww2 where the Americans got served espresso by the Italians but ask to water it down a bit. I love it black to but in Europe it’s very normal to drink it with milk and sugar 😁 thanks champ 🏆

    Loved this one. I'm a big fan of that side of the river of Bangkok. Great to see your meet ups with Gary too. And as far as the Americano thing goes. From what I know, at least in the U.S., an Americano is espresso with hot water, as opposed to a regular drip-style or instant coffee. Not sure if it's the same in Thailand tho, I think they just use Americano to mean black coffee haha.

    An Americano is espresso with water and is not the same as "coffee" in America. That is usually brewed or dripped, has a different roast and character.
    I've never heard of a "hot" Americano, does that mean there is a "cold" Americano?

    I don't know that you have ever been or heard of Kudi Chin community. It's an area south of Wat Arun. This community has 4 cultures (Thai Chinese Portugese and Muslim) and 3 religions (Buddhism, Christainity, and Islam) living together. To get there, take MRT to Sanamchai station, follow the sign to rachinee pier and walk across a bridge to Atsadang pier on your left and take a boat ferry to Wat Kallayanamit. You can explore toward south thru the coummunity to Wat Prayurawong which has a big white Chedi, you can get inside the chedi to see its very cool wooden structure and then cross the Momorial bridge back to the East side. th-cam.com/video/gyINSWlsOU4/w-d-xo.html
