Shops

Doughnuts are sold at doughnut shops, bakeries, or grocery stores.

Each of the independently owned shops and cafes have their own feel which creates a unique composition.

Today, there are about 11,000 fish and chips shops throughout the UK and Ireland, so finding a chippie (a fish and chip shop) is usually easy.

Fish and chip shops are now also around the world, including a few shops in New York City, and are especially popular in coastal regions of Spain.

No matter who may have opened the first fish and chip shop, the trade grew to feed a rapidly expanding population, reaching a staggering 35,000 shops in the 1930s and more than tripling since then.

The vast area, known locally as Yaowarat, is full of streets and alleys that are in turn full of shops and restaurants and countless street food vendors.
