Bangkok, love it or hate it, because while it’s a city packed with actions, it could be intimidating to less-experienced travelers. But now, you have decided to venture into Bangkok anyway (since you are reading this, I assume you are..), so just take a deep breath, and Bangkok can be easy. How long to stay […]
Where to Stay in Bangkok
Here are some of my recommendations on where to stay in Bangkok. Added on are their Tripadvisor scores (as on 14 Apr 2017) for reference. Bangkok is one of the most visited city in the world and for decades the tourism boom has boosted its city expansion, basically every where is listed in travelers’ attraction […]
Inter Restaurant @ Siam, Bangkok
Snuggled in the heart of busy Siam Square with interior that could only qualify as impressive if we are in the 80s, Inter Restaurant is an unpretentious cafe serving the norm Thai dishes. Whether its cheap or not will depend whether, you are comparing it to an even simpler local eatery or with a tourist-filled restaurant. I think […]
T&K Seafood @ Bangkok, Yaowarat Road
I first started dining at T&K Seafood in 2014 and we went there again in end of 2015. Thinking back, I am not too sure if it’s the best seafood haunt for the first visit, we got a receipt with no itemized listing, but a big 1000 Bht figure written on it. This time we […]
Hua Hin + Bangkok Day 3 : Khlong Lat Mayom and Platinum Mall
Exactly a year after my first visit to floating Khlong Lat Mayom I returned again this November with the main agenda to explore everything it has to offer. The previous year’s boating trip to the village was not bad but left us with little time to explore the market itself. Let me say this upfront – […]
Hua Hin + Bangkok Hua Hin Day 2 : Swiss Sheep Farm and Plad Thong Mookata
It must be the good oil massage we got yesterday. I woke up at 5 am, feeling refreshed and can’t wait to start the day. Beyond everything, we need to depart for Bangkok by afternoon and I realized it was impossible to cram Swiss Sheep Farm and Marukhathaiyawan Palace into one day. My heart was […]
Hua Hin + Bangkok Hua Hin Day 1 : Hua Hin Railway, Night Market, Accomodation
Hua Hin is one of the place that had stayed in my “places to go before I hit the bucket” for way too long. While I had been to Bangkok many times, there’s always something crops up that made us abandoned the effort. Tips 1 : Spend at least 2 nights in Hua Hin. While […]
Foodcourt in Phuket
Being one of the most popular island destination in the world, Phuket food price can soar higher than the amount you’re willing to fork out. That is, unless you eat where the locals eat. We’ve got our dinner taken care off, with a full list of seafood restaurants off the beaten path. When it comes […]
Chen Long Buffet Phuket, Thailand
Chen Long Buffet Phuket, the name is no stranger to me and CS. Back in 2008, Jamie’s Phuket blog had recommended this to us as a cheap and affordable buffet BBQ and steamboat, well liked by the Phuketians. Regrettably, we didn’t manage to come here during the previous trip. This time, I am not exaggerating […]
A Day at Chiangmai Zoo
If you wanna lose weight, go to Chiangmai Zoo, seriously. You can really go nuts if you hike through the Chiangmai Zoo on foot, like what we stupidly did. We didn’t do much research before going to Chiangmai Zoo and walked pass the train service ticket counter without suspecting anything. On the brighter side, we […]
