[Bangkok] Jeanrin Goes to Bangkok

Firstly wanna apologies.. Didn't know it already almost 3 months since I'm back from Bangkok.. Dammit!! I miss it so much!!
Hubb's parents been asking us to join them in Aug/Sept but thinking Hubb not able to take so many leaves and we are flying to Hong Kong in Sept, we decided to give it a miss.. Well, this time his parents bo say wanna pay for us lei..
WHoopz!! Not one of reason for not joining lah!!

One and the only Bangkok trip for 2016
and till I go Bangkok again!! (almost tearing lei...)

Well, this trip is proudly sponsor by my mummy oso known as my stepmother ~ flight tickets and daily meal expenses.. We only got to pay for the accommodation ( of coz paying for her la!) nia..
How fantastic right!!


Booked Centara Watergate Pavillion Hotel Bangkok
simply because I want to stay in a different hotel plus the price is right.. Around 22035 thai baht which is about S$877.89 for 2 rooms
Plus it connecting room coz my brother find it weird to slp with my mummy alone and I dun wan to separate from my Hubb..

Our first meal of the day ~ Fuji Japanese restaurant
One of the food we can't miss it when we are in Bangkok.. Well, too bad mi not able to eat raw food this time round.. Shhhhh


As my mummy say I cannot pray so Hubb shall pray for two, hmm three I mean...


One of the must eat when I fly to Bangkok!!

MK steamboat restaurant! 


But we came here for the roasted meats not for steamboat!
Steamboat is just for veg and for the spinach noodles.. 


Specially seasoned by my Hubb to mi!


My loots of Day 1

not sure since when, but it became a must buy Melissa when I fly to Bangkok
Die die must buy 1 to 2 cause it damnnnn cheap lah!!

Oh ya another good find!!
Thanks to my Minmin mentioned to mi that she bought her Pandora to Australia for cleaning and told mi to bring along to Bangkok to try..
Indeed it's FREE cleaning!

Paiseh~ing
I bought 1 charm there which I never really compare the price.. whoopz..


We spend our Day 2 at Platinum mall..

It's been ages since I went to eat at the food court and I miss the food here!!
Especially the oyster omelette!


Went to fitting for the boys' shirt after lunch and shopping at Platinum mall!
Anyway this trip is more of accompanying the boys to tailor made, even though we have 4 full days, I didn't get to shop much plus I can't walk that much 
AND I CAN'T MASSAGE!!! 

Moved on to The EmQuartier for dinner, actually it mainly for Pierre Herme!


Well, it's kinda disappointing and expensive..! 
The taste is not even close lor!!

Oh man..!! 
Missing Europe so badly!!


Dinner at Roast

First time we didn't order Breakfast set and it's a super good decision!!


As much as I misses Bangkok, I miss this super yummy Truffle Alfredo(homemade tagliatelle, bacon and mushroom) 
I swear this is the best pasta I ever had! 

Even my picky brother agreed with mi!! 

Psst: We even ordered one more time when the staff missed our pork rib order! Well, blessing in disguise wahahaha!

Definitely one of instagram-worthy dessert!! 

One of the reason for mi to keep ordering every I visit Roast!!

BAKE cheese tart
Hearsay you need to queue like hours just to buy 12pcs of the cheese tarts..
Surprisingly, there's no queue at all so we decide to just buy 2 to share even though we are super full..


Kinda regretted as it tasted super yummy! (Well, at least Hubb love it!!)
We bought it again another day at Central world!!


Went to Chatchuchak morning market the next day!
Well, Hubb dun wish mi to be too tired hence he kept finding tons of reason to end the day berry early!!
Even so, I managed to bought a few dresses and cardigans.. AND he bought a few bags at his favorite shop!
Hubb is good man, he can really remember how to walk back to the shop even though we alighted at different gate almost every time.. TAT why I love travelling with him without any worries..!!

One of reason why we keep going CTC!!
Grilled pork chop!! Da~bomb!!

Never wanna miss any chance to get to eat this!


Dinner at Ban Khun Mae

Was supposed to have dinner at Som Tam Nua as it super highly recommended by our friends..
Sadly disappointment after we seen the menu..
And so Som Tam meant payaya salad, and the whole menu is much more of Som Tam, not even Tom yum soup in the menu!!

Well and so we walked back to Ban Khun Mae since it was just across the street..

Last day breakfast
Dim sum at Novotel Siam square

Actually I totally forget where did we actually went to after breakfast..
But I know we are back at Central World for After You..


PS: forget to ask for no sugar for my iced Horlicks and it tasted super doper sweet! Have to rush Hubb to ask them for no sugar for the Iced Thai milk tea.. I think they are berry surprised when Hubb went to tell them.. Basically they drink n eat super sweet.. They even put sugar in their food!! Wo de tian ar!!

All time favorite ~~~ Shibuya Honey Toast

The only snacks I bought back this time round and it also not for myself but for my friends.. So not myself!! But well, thank Hubb for stopping mi from buying lah cause me also not able to eat so many junk food!!

New flavor ~ Honey butter chips and cheese seaweeds found at Big C supermarket so bought it back for my friends so not sure about the taste..
Well, not much to update lah, not even much selfies, not in my forms actually!!! As you all can see/read, this trip is more like a eating trip.. Every day 3 meals without fails exclude tea break n supper!!

Need to get back to my Korea post liao lah.. Been dragging for months already..
SO so so sorry..

Bangkok,I'm back for the third time(in 2015!)...

Seriously times flies like nobody business.. 
It's already 2 months plus since I'm back from Bangkok and finally get this post updated.. 
AND... 
woohooo... in just 27,8,9 days, I'm flying to Korea and I just booked my airbnb stay..  

Finally a long waited trip, special thanks to my mil for sponsoring our flight ticket and make this trip happen..
First time travelling with my bil and gf without parents in law..
(FIL is flying to Vietnam and MIL is flying to Japan... ENVY!)
Still feeling excited even though I already went BKK twice this year (excluding this trip!!)
so it like my third times flying to BKK exactly the same in 2013... My second home!!!
MIL even left us a note and $100 for lunch even though we got meal on board cause we are taking SQ this time round.. 
Yippi..
(seriously, SQ food really getting from bad to worse..!! I still prefer Emirate and Cathay food..)
Lunchie at one of the HongKong cafe at T2 and it extremely overpriced..
I dun even remember which one is nice..!


This meal costs us about S$90++
we should have settle our lunch at MAC instead..
I found a S$20.00 changi airport voucher on the floor..
A mother and son just walked past without picking it up so it shall be mine!
I noe I'm bad and I'm not honest.. wahahaha but who care... I got to buy 4 cups of coffee from coffee bean for the price of S$6.80 lei...

Mi and my sunflower...
Well, I just love sunflowers, in fact I love all kinds of beautiful flowers...
I'm a flower kind of girl.
Not hua hua to my Hubb can liao...
On Board lo!
Love this 2 passport holders we made during our first trip to BKK this year..
He love everything in black 
She love everything in Pink..

SQ in flight meal
Totally disappointed!!
(I didn't even have mine meal during the flight back to SG.. so disappointed!)



I love the sky, but I'm just too afraid to touch you close... so near yet so far
Selfie first before landing to BKK..
This white Xmas tree captured our attention..
Pretty cool ya..
I love this Xmas tree alot.. Isn't it beautiful..!

Check in Novotel Bangkok Platinum Hotel..
This hotel is located just beside(or I should say juz above) Platinum Fashion Mall.. Prefect lodging for those who love to shop at Platinum Fashion Mall and even Central World.. Actually it even walkable distance to Erawan Shrine and even Siam area..
Prefect!

I caught you bathing!

As we touched down a little way late, decided to settle our dinner at Fuji restaurant at Platinum Fashion mall..
Our all time favorite!
And it's so so so cheap..
As all shops closed berry early (basically all shops closed around 9..), we decided to go straight to Big C to shop for snackss...
And we bought the whole trolley of snacks!
Our Supper for the first night..!
McDonald pork burger, nuggets, fries and mango sticky rice is must!
DAY 2 race start!

Well, our day dun start without selfies shot!



Hubb's so vain keep saying his hair is like baby hair skin, smooth and soft..
Well...

Let you have a few 'alone' shot at morning market at Pratunam.

By the way, Pratunam morning market open as early as 4am.. But I dun recommend to go so early la.. Most of the stalls are still busying changing seller or setting up the stalls..
Anyway, it still dark at 4am so nothing much to see too..

As I just came here in May, so I had nothing much to see and buy.. And we came here for Hubb's sugar butter bread!
So after walking abt 2hrs or so, we went back to the hotel for breakkie... 
Went to visit my boss in Bkk ~ Okay I mean went to take the presents from JP from Boss..
Hahaha.. Thank you Boss for doting mi always..
Here's the goodies...
All from Japan, of coz not all for mi de la... 
Lunch at BBQ Plaza restaurant, super disappointed with the services and food..
I rem the last time I came, the food was damn nice and delicous..
Maybe it just different outlet..
Oh well, not going to come here anymore... 
Imagine we still have space for desserts right after lunch ~steamboat somemore..
WTH..
Super love Croissant Taiyaki ~ love the sugar on the crispy skin with hot yummy red bean paste inside.. WOoo...

Came across the Giant Hello Kitty!
Okay mi not going to bring you home kitty.. See you when I see you again!

Due to too many photos, I decided to do up another post just for the Husky cafe..
Cause this does make my bangkok trip complete this time..
Hubb been wanna try the boat noodles since our last trip to Bangkok with my family but was rejected by mi.. (yessss mi!!)

This time, Hubb insisted to go Victory monument since we are so near there after Husky cafe.. 
 Boat noodles also known as Kway Teow. In older days, boat noodles are normally sold at river canals on a floating boat. Today, many of them have moved to the land and best place to find them is at Victory Monument. When you ask a local where to find the best boat noodles, they will probably direct you here ~ Victory Monument.
Googled many stalls and decided with the most recommended stall, most importantly, this stall is air-conditioned.. 
I remembered walking all the way in, last stall, anyway just look for the staffs wearing orange shirts... 
Oh ya, over at this stall, if you finish 20 bowls, you will a big bottle of Pepsi FREE!
Psst: It's only 10baht per bowl.... It's only a mouthful portion only.. So no worries..
And yes, we(four of us!!) managed to eat 20 bowls and we are freaking full..
Just alight at Victory Monument BTS Exit 3
Walk northwards towards the monument. Once you past the monument look down to the streets and find a stretch of stalls lining the canal.. 

How can we end our day without massage and supper!!!


Super thank you Hubb and bil for going out to source for food.. Well, totally no street food or any food stall (except for Mcdonald which open 24hrs) open after 11 at Platinum fashion mall area.. They walked all the way to Central World area to buy foods while I stay in room to wash up..

Damnnn... I miss this super hot spicy squid!!

A must have every time in Bangkok..
~~~ Krispy Kreme ~~~
Speak of the devil .............. I wan to eat one now!!!
Did you notice the price?

Yes..
Original glazed for 27 baht which is about S$1.00
Assorted for 35 baht which is about S$1.40

Why did everything come to SG triple price!! Now you know why I must have this every time right...
 Only 1 original glazed and chocolate glazed are mine!!
Okay I only eat this 2 (this 2 are the nicest! Never get cheated by the cheesecake donut..!)
 Finally got to try the Tomyum UFO @ Sansab Restaurant after drooling by looking at my friends post and all the trending in facebook..
Located at Siam Paragon Level 4
991 Rama 1 Road, Pathumwan
Bangkok 10330
They have 2 different sets, seafood (570++ baht or non seafood (470++ baht) version
As Hubb not able to eat prawn, so we choose the non seafood version..
Honestly it looks so much better than it tastes.
Not going to go back for..

After You
We visited the outlet at Siam square One and the business was busting.. The whole café was filled with ppl, both tourist and locals...
Dun tell ppl you went to Bangkok before if you never try this..

Oh please.. this is the best toast I had ever had in Bangkok..
Okay I'm abit way too 'Kua zhang la'..

We waited about 20mins before our queue number was called..
Psst: Dun missed your number as you will have to re-take another number and wait again if you missed yours..
Most popular is the Shibuya Honey Toast which is a must try!
All of us loved this Shibuya Honey Toast so muchie...
I'm drooling!! OMG... I'm such a glutton... Shhh...
 ** I was so disappointed!!
The night market opposite Siam Paragon (in front of Siam square One) was closed. Not sure if they not opening or only closed for the time being.. But I have a strong feeling they close for good, as the auntie's stall which sell the most yummy mango sticky rice was gone too.. !! There goes my mango sticky rice AGAIN!!
My favorite night market of all lei.. **

Ended our day with massage again!

Though we have breakfast provided at the hotel, we decided to have our second breakfast at Saab saab wanton mee.. Okay, Hubb 'MUST HAVE' in Bangkok..
Well... it wasn't that fantastic anymore and totally not worth for the queue..
Lucky we reached early (they open 9am to 3pm..)

Spot Hubb in the photo!!
请注意!
这个店没有分行
meaning they have no franchise..
Does this mean SG that saab saab wanton mee around AMK anyhow use their name?
Bad service experience!!
We were told when we asked for the bill that we have to order four bowls as we are sitting on 4 seats!! And she even wanna charged us for 4 bowls, not sure if she purposely or accidently la.. But when being asked, she the checked the bowls again and return us back a hundred..
Yes.. A hundred didn't cost much but I'm just no like the service attitude that they given to their customers..
Well.. the noodles cost 100 baht per bowl is like S$4.00 and I feel that I can get a even nicer wanton mee in SG with no queue at ALL..
I'm SOOOO going to try the AMK saab saab wanton mee!! ARGHHH!
Okay.. SO much of the whining...

Back to hotel before we headed to Chachutak!!

But first, let mi take a selfie first.. (Hellooo Hubb... wat can I do for you...!! Okok.. I'm ready to go liao la... One more just one more.. Mai disturb plsss)
Gloomy weather = prefect weather to shop at CTC..
Heng that it only drizzling and we manage to shop in a berry cool weather. I bet this is the first time I shop for almost 5 hrs just in CTC...
Bought 5 pairs of shoe from just one shop.. It only costs mi 150 baht per pair wor.. That was like S$6.50 per pair wor...
Must have!! everytime I come CTC.. 
1) Coconut ice cream
2) Grilled Honey Roast Pork
The only pork chop Hubb eat!!!
The legendary pork chop!! Wahahaha...
They are located at Are 22, Soi 4, near most of the food stalls are located.. 
In the end, we bought a full table of food..
I wanna go back to Bangkok now!! Miss it...
Well, good times always pass berry fast.. 
In fact, I missing home so deeply..
Ended our trip with mango sticky rice from the airport.. Surprisingly, it tasted good, just abit way too expensive la... 
Hubb's parents surprised us at the airport with 爱心orange juice.. Thank you in laws.. 
Surprisingly, I didn't buy much for myself.. 
This trip is more like a eating trip for us which explained why I never took any photos of loots of the day.. 
So Hubb, when are we going back to Bangkok..
