for this post, it’s all collage photos. because, i am always too busy to blog (due to the amount of photos i need to post up), but I seriously think bangkok post has been dragged for too long. So, I am here to do an express post, on Bangkok day 2 part #2. (⌒_⌒;)

after the dinner with my girls @ SOMTAM, i headed to MR. JONES & ORPHANAGE, another highly recommended dessert place in Thailand.

MR. JONES & ORPHANAGE is located is also located in Siam Square. The whole cafe is beautifully decorated with fluffy teddy bears and many vintage toys, it makes you feels like stepping into a whimsical world of childhood fantasies. This place definitely brings out the child in me.(´▽`ʃƪ)♡

However, aside from the very pretty settings, I would say the desserts here are overrated. Hmmm. (╯︵╰,)

Next up, we went to Asiatique, the Riverfront.

How to get there:
Get off the sky train at Saphan Taksin station, take exit 2, & then take the shutter boat for around 15mins to reach Asiatique. (Boat operate tills 2300 daily)

Operate from 5.30pm till late daily.

This place is beautiful, & it’s very relaxing. I personally like this place a lot, a must go in Thailand.

Eateries are aplenty over here (more than 50 stalls), filled with a lot of fancy restaurants. It’s more of a dine and drink place rather than a shopping spot. Still, there are some shops that sells pretty unique goods. The goods sold here are a lil more pricey compares to the others, but there are some which are really unique, that you probably couldn’t get it else where.

Not forgetting the Asiatique Sky, a jaw- dropping 60-metre high ferris wheel.❤

A perfect spot to spend some more chillax time with the family.
dinner, photo taking, & enjoying the night scenery by the river with lots of laughter with the loved one. ❤

We got back to the hotel around 11pm.
& we went for the massage arrange by the hotel before we called it a day.

Siam Health Spa & Massage. It’s 10mins walking distance from my hotel.
Pretty decent place, masseurs here are good too.

Enjoyed ourself pretty much (with brother constantly laughing because he felt its too ticklish).

p.s. – its a lil pricer compared to the others, & they asked for tips after the massage too.

That’s all on DAY 2.
I shall update DAY 3 asap, as it’s one of the best day throughout the trip too.

Cheers! ❤ ❤ ❤

Last week, together with 20 others bloggers, we were invited by WeChat to an exclusive event held at Blu Med, Mid Valley. It’s a casual dinner where WeChat Malaysia showcased WeChat version 5.1 along with a number of new features; also launched the new WeChat games!!!

my #lookofthenight. (๑・ω-)～♥”

Before dinner, we were first introduced to the WeChat games!

Craz3 Match – An easy-to-play but addictive game! Line up animals of the same kind for spectacular effects and move on to the next level!

Oh, & also bloggers were invited to play the games in the huge screen provided that night.

I tried the Craz3 MatcH, & ended up as the lowest scorer that night. ٩(͡๏̯͡๏)۶
But probably because these chio animals are really irresistable, i actually started playing everyday (it’s addictive, trust me!), & improved pretty much. *you can try challenging me…(¬‿¬)*

After having a lot of fun, we were then pampered with good food!
healthy yet scrumptious dinner were prepared for us. so much loves! ♥ ♥ ♥

Catching up with the ladies during the dinner.
the always looking so good Careen, also the emcee of the night; & my bestie, adelechow.

ヽ(＾▽＾)人(＾▽＾)人(＾▽＾)ﾉ

the pretties, bell & jac.
so much to talk about, nice seeing you girls again. ♥

Next up, we were briefed on the new features of WeChat version 5.1.
Not only can you send chat messages via mobile data or WiFi, WeChat also allows you to:

- Create group chats, hosting up to 100 friends in a chat with two select groups;

I just got back from Sabah, it was overall a good one.
but before I get started with Sabah, I shall continue w/ my Bangkok trip Day 2, part #1 (due to too many photos, I’ve decided to separate it into two post.)

#throwveryfarback ( ༎ຶŎ༎ຶ )
back to 26.10.2013…

outfit of the day, a very casual one to fir the hectic shopping schedule.

First stop:
Pratunam market & Platinum Mall.

How to get there:
From my hotel(Bangkok City Hotel), we took a tuktuk over.
It costs us 60baht/per tuktuk for the journey. We took 2, because it fits only 4 person/tuktuk.
note: tuk tuks don’t have meters so passengers must negotiate the price with the driver in advance.

I will consider Tuktuk as a must-try in Thailand.

The smile on their face is just, priceless.
that’s what i love, they were all so happy throughout the trip. ( ＾◡＾)っ❤

okay. if you are wondering what’s this photo all about.

I was attempting to capture a photo of me & my shopping partners in tuktuk through the mirror reflection, but obvious enough, i failed miserably. ƪ(‾ε‾“)ʃ

The journey is about 10-15mins as there’s jam here & there.
arrived, at pratunam market! here, it’s all about S-H-O-P-P-I-N-G! ♥～(‘▽^人)

Opening Hours: 10am – 6pm (close on Monday)

We were a lil early, some of the stores along the foot paths are still closed.
grabbed a oh-so-cool reflective shades for 100baht. & it’s photo time.

oh, let me introduce my shopping partner.
the bestie, adelechow (who i manage to convince her to tag along for the trip, in 5 mins) & the always so pretty, Rachel! (＾○＾)オ(＾▽＾)ハ(＾０＾)ツ～

family portrait. hahah. ヽ(愛´∀｀愛)ノ

separated with the family, because they probably cannot take my crazy shopping.

*no photos in pratunam because we were too busy shopping, & negotiating*
I already had my whole bag filled up in Pratunam, & nothing cost more than 200baht. ＼(*T▽T*)／

Then, we decided to head over to Platinium Mall, everyone’s favorite shopping heaven. It’s just walking distance from Pratunam, & there’s still plenty of stall along way. We need to control ourself so badly, reserving for Platinium.

die-die-must-take-photo.

even when hair’s all mess’d up. haha! ( ⋂‿⋂’)

Platinum Mall, wholesale shopping in Bangkok!
It’s best to tag along with 2-3 friends to consolidate your purchase to get the much cheaper wholesale price!

We were a lil disappointed when we first enter at the higher level, as things are more expensive compare to everything in Pratunam. But we were very determine that we could get cheap nice stuff here like what everyone that came Thailand mentioned.

So we went to the lower level, & yes, it’s heaven! (｡♥‿♥｡)
things here cost range from 50 baht to 300baht. & there’s wide range of selection, from clothings, to cosmetics, to accessories, to heels.

*no photo taken too, & this is the only photo i took when i was resting by the side after I got too tired due to 3hrs of massive shopping*

4 hours is definitely not enough, but our stomach is protesting!
so, we stopped & got back w/ a full luggage of buys!

yes, our earlier hand-carried-bag couldnt fit, so we bought a luggage to carry all our buys.

Look at all our happy-post-shopping-faces, nothing is more satisfying than this! ٩(^ᴗ^)۶

Got back to the hotel, changed, we head over to Siam Square for food!

How to get to Siam Square:
we took a taxi there, costs us about 150bath due to the heavy traffic. （it can definitely go cheaper, but we didnt bother negotiating further because we were too hungry ƪ(‾ε‾“)ʃ) You can also reach by BTS, as it is just footsteps away from Siam BTS Skytrain Station.

Decided to go to Somtam Nua, Adele recommended this place.

According to her, there’s heaps of good comment on this restaurant online. They said if you are going to Bangkok, you definitely have to go try this restaurant. It is highly reviewed by tourists, as well as the locals!

the modern decoration of the place.

Service is rather effective, as there’s about 15 staffs in a relatively small restaurant like this.

we were expecting pineapple rice and pandan chicken, but none is found in the menu.
so, we asked for a few of the recommended dishes instead.

self-entertaining before food being served.

the signature fried chicken. (98 baht)

Sprinkled with crispy garlic and fresh spring onion.
Though it’s crispy outside, it’s still very juicy inside!! ❤

my fav. som tam khai kem, also known as the preserved egg papaya salad (65 baht), they definitely nailed the art of it! it’s sour, salty, sweet & sour all together, so good, so addictive! ॱ॰⋆(˶ॢ‾᷄﹃‾᷅˵ॢ)ӵᵘᵐᵐᵞ♡♡♡

extra salted preserved pork!

i couldnt comment much on this as I am never a pork lover, but this one, the sweetness & tenderness really got me hooked up. so yea. 〜(￣▽￣〜)

tomyum soup.

very different from the thick orangy looking one that i have back in KL, this one comes in a clear soup base, yet not losing it’s spicyness & sourness. *likeeeee*

phad kanomjeen, stir-fried rice noodles.

it served along w/ a generous portion of chicken floss.
one of the favorite dish of the meal too! ❤

that’s all for now…

& before i end this post, there goes the buy-of-the-day.
*evil grinssssssssssssss* (•̀ᴗ•́)و ̑̑…success.jpg

to be continue…
Cheers. v(｡-_-｡)v

November 26th, 2013 by tziaaa

my previous post, it’s one month ago. *& it’s barely a post* ⁽⁽(ཀ д ཀ)⁾⁾
have been so busy, i almost forgotten to catch a breathe.

but, well, all good.

was on family trip, we went #bangkok! ❤
& this is definitely the first photo of siblings & I, on plane.

reached bangkok on 5pm. Inside the terminal, you’ll definitely come across many people who aggressively approaching you asking you if you would like to hire a taxi, and a car or even a van. & we rented a van which cost us 1000baht, from Don Mueng International Airport to our hotel located at Petchaburi Road.

not a cheap deal, but as we were all tired, this big comfy van won our heart. ヽ(ー_ー )ノ

so, this is the hotel we stayed in.

Bangkok City Hotel, it’s 5 mins walking distant from the Ratchathewi BTS Skytrain Station.
It’s a Tune Hotel kind of budget hotel, clean, simple*which means nothing fancy* & comfy, for the price for about 1190 thai baht/night.

If you looking for an affordable stay, cheap, located at the city, with WIFI service *free wifi, even in room* then this is your hotel. Not forgetting their rather good breakfast, helpful front desk staff who speaks english, street foods just right beside it and city view from room, I conclude that I enjoyed my stay there.

Hence, I would highly recommend this!!! d(-_^)

Moving on, it’s dinner time.
My family has a rather sensitive stomach, so we thought of having safe food, & thinking that mall food will be good. Decided to head over to Siam Paragon.

& they said, it’s still in a walking distant from our hotel.
so, we walked about 5-10mins to reach Ratchathewi BTS Skytrain Station, & Paragon mall is still no where to be seen.

Asked the local, they say it’s 5 mins away.

*btw, hie from my loving parents. (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤

walked another 10mins, we still dont see any high rise building.
asked another local, again, said 5 mins away.

walked another 10mins, miserably.
& after 15 mins, tadahhhhhh, we are finally in the Siam malls compound.

the mission-completed happy faces. “ヽ(´▽｀)ノ”

& we learned that, people will just say, “5 mins, 5 mins,….” as long as its nearby, even if it’s actually 20-30mins away. hmmmm. okay, admit it, we did that too. (¬‿¬)

hello, Siam Paragon!

First meal in Bangkok, MOS burger.
because I miss it so much, & the rest have not tried.

Parents was a lil skeptical, because I brought them to a fast food restaurant when we are in Thailand. But, not until they have the first bite on these yummy burgers! I am glad that they like it pretty much.

*oh, didnt I mentioned, I am sort of a organizer/planner/tourguide for this trip, & I have the whole responsibility to make sure it’a all good.

We had, my favorite Fish Burger, Takokatsu Burger, Pork Cutlet Burger, Ginger Pork Rice Burger, & Terriyaki Chicken Burger.

The soft buns & the unique japanese rice burger, ahh, I already started missing ‘em. ლ(´◉❥◉｀ლ)

Desset time after dinner @ After You Dessert Café, just because, it’s so highly recommended. There is even a legend that says ‘you have never been to Bangkok until you tried Afteryou dessert”.

It is located at the basement of Siam Paragon, the same level as where MOS burger is located at.
The modern furnishing & homey feel is indeed inviting.

however, it’s cramped & a lil overed busy for you to chillingly enjoy your sweets.
& you got to queue for table, took our number & waited for 15-20mins till we got ourself a table.

Coffee-addict like me can barely live a day without coffee.
thus, my latte. It’s rather milky, but, still good.

& they serve free iced tea too.

we had:
Chocolate toast w/ strawberry (195 baht)- to be honest, it’s definitely not heavenly, but satisfying, yes. (っ˘ڡ˘ς)
Chocolate lava cake (165 baht) – highly raved about on the internet, but fair enough, the best among all. The oozing out melted chocolate is definitely irresistable.ॱ॰⋆(˶ॢ‾᷄﹃‾᷅˵ॢ)ӵᵘᵐᵐᵞ♡♡♡
Baked fuji apple crumble w/ soy custard sauce - it’s just alright, guess you can get better one in KL.

& more #selfie. ヽ(愛´∀｀愛)ノ
I definitely love the fact that though we have all grown up, yet feel so comfortable to stay by each other. ❤

in conclusion, personally, i would think that this place is not a MUST-MUST-GO place. but if you are ever at this area, it will be good to make a point to visit them for their chocolate lava.

next off, patpong night market.
It opens from 6pm – 2am. No photo, because we were too busy shopping. There’s also a Naraya shop along the street, a fabric bag and accessory trendsetter brand from Thailand. You will be amazed that all the pretty chio bags all come in reasonable price. We got quite a few from there. There’s plenty of other stalls selling souvenirs & clothes, but if you are not a good negotiator, do not buy here!

also, they will be people approaching you along the street for Tiger/Pingpong show.
beware, do not go, if you are not ready for unpleasant & awful scene, e.g., women shooting ping pong balls out of their vaginas. (/ω＼) it is definitely not the family-friendly aqua show. I am thankful that I was warned way earlier.

how to get there:
we took sky train to Sala Daeng Station 2. It’s just 2mins walking distant away from the station.

*me acting all touristy, haha*

Around 12am, we took a taxi back to the hotel, dropped our buy-of-the-night, then headed out for supper.
had street food which is along the street next to our hotel.

Beers in thailand is cheap! // Phad Thai, just like a sweet & sour version of CharKueyTeow // charcoal-barbecue meat balls & fish balls.

Last but not least, Thai Foot Massage (200baht) which is also along the street to end the night. ( ˘ ³˘)

… to be continue.

Cheers. v(｡-_-｡)v
