AAAum Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 i watched a Thai TV show on Thai PBS named "LongKrung" (หลงกรุง)...starring by a Canadian guy, Daniel Fraser... yes, he speaks Thai so well on the show. he mentioned Bangkok has been known as "City of Angels"... to himself, he would rather go for "Bangkok, the City never stop eating" because he thinks anyone can find food 24 hours a day!! so he does the proof by going around Bangkok and eating all night. so, my question is ...Can you give me a nickname of Bangkok? and a reason, please Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

admin Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 I think Bangkok's nickname should me "Mai ow minow" Even though I like lemon/lime in my beer I say that just because I think it sounds funny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanisK Posted May 16, 2011 Report Share Posted May 16, 2011 got it... much better than " the Big Durian"!!! Considering the not so good air there, "The Big Durian" might be more fitting I like the Mango theme though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
