Are there good shows in bangkok?

Best Bangkok Non-Guidebook Sites, Attractions, and Food?

• Will be heading to Bangkok with my boyfriend and a bunch of his friends from grad school to Bangkok from the end of July to the beginning of August, with a long weekend trip to Koh Samui. (We're in our late 20s-early 30s.) We have a few Thai friends but they won't be able to play tour guide the whole time. We will be staying in Suhkumvit for most of the trip and then close to Silom after. Would love any local recommendations for things to do, see, eat, and shop that might not make it into the guidebooks or are new within the past several years. We eat everything (I'm white and from the midwest, I can't handle too spicy), and are open to everything from museums to shopping to lady boy shows; bonuses for ways to stay cool in the heat! Thanks!

  Well, it's not exactly a secret but since you're in the neighborhood you should check out the street food night market on http://migrationology.com/2014/04/sukhumvit-soi-38-convenient-street-food-bangkok/. Right near the Thong Lo BTS station so probably really easy to get to from wherever you're staying. And if you want to get any men's suits made, http://www.rajasfashions.com/index.php is the real deal - not the cheapest in town by any means but really high quality.
