Chatuchak Weekend Market has it all, from the sweetest of deals to the sweetest desserts.

That being said, here are the top 10 desserts you must track down while exploring Chatuchak Weekend Market.

Mango With Sticky Rice

One dessert you must try while visiting Thailand is mango over sticky rice. Mango is chilled and thinly sliced before being put over warm rice. It’s then drizzled with refreshing, thick coconut milk. It ‘s served in convenient, plastic containers so it’s easy to enjoy while exploring Chatuchak. You’ll see these vendors selling mango with sticky rice throughout the market, as they’re definitely a best-seller.
