[/caption]Just coming to Pattaya Floating Market, Thailand, I directly saw some shops around. Bunch of choices what I could see and buy. One of the front shops that I saw was Koh Kae shop. Koh Kae is famous snack brand in Thailand. It is peanut snack covered by coconut cream which has existed in Thailand since 1976 and exported in US, UK, Germany, and Australia. Koh Kae shop in Pattaya Floating Market is wooden base. From the floor, doors, and until windows are made from woods. It is relevant with the concept of floating market in which most of the shops are also wooden base. It is not very big shop but visitors can have many choices of Koh Kae products. The prices are various. The example is the package of two peanut bins with the price of 120 Bath or around US$ 4. You can get free bag as well :)

The icon also wears unique costume (I think it is like Japanese kimono) which is match with its slipper. This little boy icon becomes favorite "friend" to take picture for visitors. Many people come in this part to take picture even though they do not buy the products from Koh Kae shop, aha including me, I also didn't buy anything there, just tempted to take picture with the statue :D though I was bit disappointed to miss the opportunity to try popular snack in Thailand :(
