Bangkok's ultimate fancy foods emporium, Gourmet Market is enormous -- imagine combining a local farmers market, a butcher, a baker, a wine shop, Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, Wild Oats, and plunking it down in a Thai megamall. Sort through mounds of spicy Thai sausages or splurge on $190/lb Matsuzaka beef; wander the rows for pickled Chinese bamboo, dried cantaloupe or smoked fish; or dine on octopus at one of the sit-down restaurants.
