05 OCTOBER 2012 - BANGKOK, THAILAND: A chestnut vendor sells chestnuts on Yaowarat Road in the Chinatown section of Bangkok, Thailand.

In recent years, Bangkok's street food has become something of an international landmark and is being written about in glossy travel magazines and in the pages of the New York Times.
