[Bangkok] One of the must-eats at Bangkok has to be Mango Sticky Rice “Khao Niew Ma Muang”.
Mango Sticky Rice is a traditional Thai dessert made from glutinous rice, fresh mango slices, and coconut milk.
Where is one place to get it in Bangkok?
Mae Varee Mango Sticky Rice in Bangkok is often hailed as one of the best places to enjoy this iconic Thai dessert.
Located conveniently near Thong Lo BTS station (Exit 3), Mae Varee has become a popular staple for both locals and tourists.
The shop is easy to spot with its colorful display of ripe mangoes stacked at the entrance.
As you approach, the vibrant atmosphere and the sweet aroma of mangoes draw you in, setting the stage for what many consider a quintessential Bangkok experience.
The mangoes are typically fresh, juicy, and sliced to accompany the soft, slightly sweet, and slightly salty sticky rice.
Fun fact: Thailand’s mango season typically runs from April to June. This is when the mangoes are at their sweetest and most fleshy.
Oh yah, I got the tri-coloured version, with green (pandan leaves) and blue (butterfly pea flower).
Except that I wished the pandan fragrance was more pronounced.
The coconut milk, often served separately in a small bag, adds a rich creaminess that ties the dish together.
Do note that due the shop’s popularity, prices are higher here compared to other vendors.
The portion sizes are generally adequate, but the cost of THB 150 for the basic serving might seem a bit steep.
This is especially considering that Mango Sticky Rice is available at many street vendors across the city for a lower price.
