Bangkok Day 1 (2nd Jul - 5th Jul)

The much anticipated BKK trip and our first travelling trip together without the company of our bfs

So you can imagine how excited we are despite the Thai's election, we still go ahead with our trip as planned.

Both of our bf's didn't approve the trip initially but thankfully we managed to persuade our bf, by promising them tt we will report to them every 2-3 hours via whatapp and taking pictures of us to let them have a peace of mind. 

I love wadapp! Its especially useful when you are at overseas, we took lots of pictures and a couple of guys tee and 3/4 denim jeans, see whether they like the designs we choose, plus we also sent our location and our voice recordings to them! haha! We are missing our bfs! :*)

Our flight is at 2.40pm, my first time flying off in the noon! 
Feels really good i need not wake up at early morning to catch a flight. 


Boarding the plane
(its also my first time flying via airasia!)



Regretted to bring this sling bag during the trip, should have bring a slightly bigger one. Sigh! :(



After 2 hrs of flight, we reached BKK!
Took a cab to Baiyoke Suite Hotel to check in first. It was almost 6pm in the evening by the time we reached our hotel. There was a traffic jam!


Hotel Lobby




Always wear flip flops to BKK, you never know when it will rain and it will be such a pain if your pretty pumps get dirtied. Plus you don't want to tired your legs during the hours of shopping! :) 




Here's our room number! Staying at 30th floor.


This is my 3rd time staying in this hotel. If you are looking for a budget hotel, you can try this! 
The living room is pretty spacious and there's a sofa and tv etc...
The location is nearer to platinum mall as compared to Baiyoke Sky and Boutique.

But, one bad thing is there is a stale stinking smell in the room and the furnitures are pretty worn out in my opinion. Apple even went to call up the recept to ask for a change of hotel but we have to go through agoda to make it works. 

So in the end, we didn't change our hotel. OPT for grand diamond if you are going bkk soon!
I stayed at grand diamond before and the body massage over there is really good! :)

I'm so glad my upcoming BKK trip during end of Aug, i will be staying at Grand Diamond! can't wait!

Its already 6plus after we settled down, so we walked over to Central World just to visit Naraya to grab a couple of stuffs! Everything is so girly and sweet in Naraya! :*)


After that, we walked over to Siam Square and spend 2-3 hours shopping along the streets. 
Our first buy has to be our dancing lady rings at a steal price of 20 baht = $0.80!!! 

Guess what, we are so engrossed in our shopping and didn't had any dinner till 10pm.
I'm damn hungry by then and all the restaurants are closed at MBK. 
At that moment, i spotted a ramen restaurant so we just hopped into this restaurant and ordered their set dinner. 




The dinner was such a disappointment! I almost vomited when i smell the pork in the ramen.
It was seriously damn STINK! urghhh!!! I can still remember the strong smell. yucksss!!
Even the tempura is not crispy at all. Gonna blacklisted this restaurant in MBK! 

I ate a few mouths and i couldn't continue anymore. I even rejected the side dish.
Only managed to finish up the drinks. What a waste of money! 


Luckily, we got a free tee for the set meal. 


Restaurant Name: Oishi Ramen (Blacklisted!)



Bump onto Apple's colleagues at MBK and again at Platinum mall the next day and we had shopping tgt!


Will continue Day 2 in the next entry! :)

Punggol Promenade

Went to Punggol Promenade to had Uncle Leong Seafood to celebrate uncle's birthday!

First time there and i'm pretty amazed there's a fast food restaurant there - POPEYE!

Extremely crowded on a Sunday evening



Uncle Leong Seafood


These are the 3 must try dish! 


Long queue outside. They don't take in reservations during the weekend, only accept walk in customers.
So we leave our names with them and they will call us once there's table available for us.



Breath taking scenery 



Uncle and Auntie

After 20 mins of waiting, our food are here!
Guess what, i saw sharon and pauline (my suppliers) over there! So coincidence heh :)










Food Food Food, i need to watch my diet and starts exercising!

The bill amount to $226.80! Pretty worth it with the amount of dishes we ordered.
