Bangkok Trips Update !!!

Hey guise I know my blog has been on a hiatus like forever. So here I am, on a train, on the way to work, blogging and I'm late for work FML

So here's my post on my Bangkok Trips in Dec'13 & Apr'14. 
Enjoy!
BKK Dec 2013




  With Mr Gary 😁
                                

With my QTie Fam
               

Arrival in BKK





                 

Then we were fetched from the airport to the hotel to check in - Novetel Platinum
The location is just right beside Platinum mall, so you know what that means...

Shopping... Shopping and just more shopping!!



And then we went to MBK, which I wouldn't really suggest if you all are looking forward to shopping. That place has more souvenirs and the clothes there are not extremely cheap.

  Though, Good dessert at MBK's Foodcourt
   
And of course, THE UTLIMATE DESERT:- Mango Sticky Rice
(You can never ever miss this out if your in Thailand)


And I recommend those who are more gutsy, to try the roadside food. 
This fish is really, the BOMB. 

This is one of the best handmade salted fish that is grilled on the spot and served to you. I highly recommend this and the Superb Tanghoon. Apologies if I didn't snap a pict of the best Tanghoon ever. Youwill not regret it. It's one of the roadside stores near our hotel.



And then on Day 3 in BKK, I met JJ and JED.

I met JJ outside Platinum Mall and we chilled at Coldstone because the weather was super 'shiok' (slang: refreshing, enjoyable) and we were tired from shopping (ok, maybe just me)

Sorry if I look horrible overseas, I don't really bother to dress up because I won't be seeing the ppl there who judge me, anymore, so no Effs given ;)







Hahaha. I told Jay he looked ugly, so he put on his glasses and asked,"what about now?"
My reply "still ugly"

Moral of the Story, don't ask me for opinions 😂😂😂 HAHAHAHAHAH.












Then I met JED at the Hotel Lobby lounge and we chilled for abit. 
He stayed at the same hotel as me.








GDI. Jed please stop acting cute. OMG.


Thank you BKK Dec 2013!! 

Here's my Mandatory Travel Selfie:-
I know, I kinda look like a cow here. Whatevs~



Now for BKK Apr 2014


Plane Tickets, Lets GO GO GO!!~~






Then we arrived in Bangkok and checked-in to our Hotel.
My mum read the reviews of the place and figured it was okay to try a new place, since the hotel is still new and all.

And I highly recommend any of you, if you want a budget, but still personalized hotel,
you should go to Glow Pratunam.

At our first restaurant on the 1st day in BKK,

We had dinner at the Famous Ban Khun Mae Restaurant the following night.
(Food is quite pricey as only tourists go there, mostly Singaporeans as well.)

    Here's what we ordered:





    And their lights are somehow 'made' of mango. Idek. How can anyone resist this place.
    It has like the best food, best ambience and best decos. 
    (Also, it's air conditioned, but there always seems to be a queue
    ; which means they are super popular) 
    Moving on, we went to Chatuchak and other places.
    And we even ate 'Moo' (not the cow of course silly, it's like roasted pork, the kind we eat at typical chinese/Asian  restaurants.

    Then came shopping heaven....

                         Platinum Mall

    Once I got there, I dived straight in. Sorry I don't have any pictures of my loots because I was too tired to even take them.

    But here's a great tasty tip, buy the Crepes that are downstairs the Platinum Mall, on level 1, before going to shop. The store is located next to UOB Money Changer. 

    The Crepes are the bomb, even though they might not look like it exactly, but they taste SOO good and only cost less than a 100baht ($4SGD), compared to Singapore, where Crepes are like luxury- $6++?!??!!??WTF


    My Nutella and Fresh Sliced Banannas Crepes - 60baht (this is more expensive than the rest because Nutellla is expensive as it's an imported good aka not from Bangkok) 

    And when in Bangkok, or any part of Thailand, you can never miss the Famous Pad Thai, no matter anywhere or every where you go. #SoMuchPadThaiLove


    Also, how can you miss the massage there which is so good and cheap. TSK.

    This is the session that's the most expensive because it was on our last night in Bangkok and we could only have the massage at the hotel. Still, not a bad rate,1hr- 300baht ($12SGD) 

    Great ambience btw!



    And that's all for my Bangkok trip -just shopping, eating and massage
    (that explains why I gained like 3kg FML)

    Seeyou again soon! And take care~



    **PS/:Oh and I washed my hair at a nearby Salon.
    Tip for anybody who wants to have 'better' service, don't go when the shops are about to close. 
    Bye!!! 


    -Xoxo-
