When I first saw Fortune Town Mall I was underwhelmed. But in subsequent visits I've learned a lot more about it.

Fortune Town contains an IT Mall on the third and fourth floors. Like dreampipe, I find that you can get all of your IT needs met here in a more positive environment than the better known Pantip Plaza. I recently needed a specific item for my laptop, and while I was looking for it I walked into a standard sized shop that was filled with adapters and cords... it was the specialty of the shop.

When I was looking for two power converters so I could plug my 110 v equipment from the US into the 220v Thai power supply I found a shop that sold them at 200 baht (about $6) each.

In addition to the IT Mall, which is the primary focus of Fortune Town Mall, there is a good sized Tesco-Lotus for groceries and general household supplies and appliances.

It is also well-known in the area for it's food court; a large area with a wide selection of Thai and Chinese dishes served hot, fresh and cheap.

The train access couldn't be better, and if you're driving there's plenty of parking.

The position on the corner of Ratchadapisek Road and Rama 9 Road (not far from Petchaburi Road)makes it easily accessible from many parts of the city.

There is even a large hotel attached to the complex if you want to make this your base of operations while in Bangkok.

While it's not exactly part of Fortune Town Mall, Ratchada Soi 3 runs beside the Mall on the North side. Just 50 to 100 meters from Tesco-Lotus you can find a wide array of delicious street food at very low prices.

This street in Ratchada is particularly well-known for it's Khao Man Gai (Chicken & Rice with chili sauce) available from several vendors, and Moo Yang (grilled pork) which is also sold in several locations.

My favorite vendor, located next to 7-11 at the corner of Soi 3 and Soi Yoo-Charoen sells Moo Yang, Som Tam and 99-baht pitchers of beer in a shaded outdoor shop for your refreshment on hot Bangkok afternoons.

This is a large shopping mall on Ratchadapisek
There is loads of parking available and its near to the underground. However I found it to be a limited place you can get a lot of hi tech equipment here from projectors to laptops but it just struck me as run of the mill macdonalds burger king and a pizza hut type of place

Bangkok is famous for huge malls but for electronics people seems to always go to Pantip plaza but I think fortune town is a better bet for various reasons.

1. A better food court
2. lots of parking
3. its right on top of an MRT stop
4. the vendors seem more legit - less hustle
5. my after sales service has been better here

I think the prices are comparable to pantip so when u factor in the ease of getting there and the cleaner less patpong like environment I think fortune town is a better bet for electronics shopping.
