Pre-Wedding Trip to BKK P2

The good thing about the B&B where we stayed at, they served breakfast till 11am, haha! Great for lazy bums like us, who will rush down to the cafeteria at 5 mins before 11am :)

Leecher went for English breakfast - which comes with egg, bacon, ham, sausage and bread. I continued with my quest on Thai breakfast - pork with rice. Love the fragrance of the pork that Leecher had to nip some off my plate to pair it with his bread.

As usual, Leecher will always go to the tailors to tailor-made his shirts. Based on his fren's recommendation, we went to Paul's Fashion located at Amari Watergate. It was crowded with lots of Singaporeans! We had to wait for a long time to be served, as this family of 4 took a long time to decide on the cloth & the domineering wife/mother has an opinion on what her husband & son wear. Meanwhile, we saw the cloth that Leecher tailored at Ambassador Fashion. This cloth was way cheaper in Paul's than Ambassador! Wa, confirmed kena cheated. The salesperson gave us some discount (small discount but better than nothing) cuz I lamented that we waited very long, haha!

Lunch @ Platinum Mall, where I must have my mama-mee & thai ice tea. I was pretty upset that I didn't buy anything the day before while Leecher went back with 2 bags - so unfair! So today, I was bent on getting something just to curb my imbalance feeling!

Leecher with his caffeine fix in a small Nescafe paper cup & he concluded that coffee is not really that tasty in Thailand. Only mac coffee has the familiar taste that he was looking for.

Once inside Platinum mall, you won't walk out till its closing time. The string of taxis and tuk-tuk waiting outside the mall to pick up passengers.

It was drizzling lightly and the make-shift tentages were in place, providing shelter for the diners.

Trying out their local beer

The crowd is never-ending. Tables get filled quickly, by locals or tourists and on every single table, we saw this dish

So, we ordered one to try! It was a tad salty, but when paired with the condiments, it certainly whips up the appetite for more :)

Tom Yum goong - but not as spicy as I thought it would be :(

We had the mini seafood steamboat & we didn't feel very satisfied, so off we went for desserts!

Exploring the mall for a nice dessert place

In the mood for crepes :)

Too used to eating @ roadsides that seeing a proper table setting took some mental adjustment.

Original French Apple cider, which is the tradition french drink with crepes.

Playing with 自拍, whose better at it?

Nutella crepe, hazelnut chocolate and chantilly - you can never go wrong with chocolates.

Leecher ordered Chocolat-Orange - marmalade, choc sauce and cointreau liqueur.

Chocolatey desserts to end the night :)

Pre-Wedding Trip to BKK P1

I was kinda stressed out over the wedding preparations that I decided that we should go on a pre-wedding trip to unwind 1 month before the wedding, haha! Fling was telling me that we super ga-rang, 1 month before the wedding still can go on a 1 week trip, haha! It was a much needed trip for us, as we had left our wedding plans in SG while we flew to BKK for lots of shopping & food!

Based from our experience from the previous trip, we decided to travel light and only pack the essentials!

Late lunch @ Delifrance, as we are traveling budget!

I couldn't book us on an earlier flight, so have to make do with a later timing :(

Haha, entertaining ourselves on board the no-entertainment flight. Normally, I'll be trying to catch some sleep while Leecher plays with his phone.

2 hours later, we landed! Leecher entrusted the task of being the porter. Don't say I bully him hor - I use my brains while he uses labour, haha!

As soon as we hit a familiar surrounding, he passed my luggage back to me ... this is what we called 过河拆桥.

We'll be alighting at the last stop of the airport rail this time round.

This time, our accommodation is really budget to the max, but the place is very clean and with lots of space to put our loots :) As it was rather late & raining, we decided to pack our meals from the nearby convenience shops. Looks pathetic? Well, it didn't look so from the packaging at all! My green curry rice only came with 5 miserable small fish-balls.

**********

So we had a good night sleep and woke up for breakfast the next morning.

They have 12 dishes for breakfast - 6 local and 6 american/english.

We both went for thai breakfast for the 1st day.

We stayed at Lemonseed this time round. It's really a B&B, so don't expect anything fanciful.

The usual walk to Platinum Mall! Yeah! Shopping time :)

Settled our lunch @ the food court, with our fave thai ice tea, yum yum!

Crepes from a random stall on the roadside.

Their version of lok-lok - but I say skip this if you can. Nothing fantastic and the food tastes rubbery.

I couldn't locate the roadside stall that we visited in Jan, so settled for another one instead. Not as nice as I thought it would be, so I left majority of the food untouched & went to 7-11 for noodles instead.
