Bkk Day1 !

B A N G K O K !

The land of shoppinggggggggggggggggg!

All well-prepared for our clique's holiday! #likeafinally

12 of us went! :D Awesome 2013 to start with!!

First group: 2nd-6th // Shanel.L x Ivy.S . Staciy.T x Arthur.L . Jeslyn.C x Pamela.T

Second group: 3rd-7th Feb // Joanne.L x Txy . Stacey.L x Jam.Y . Pamela.L x Jovin.Y

Was really excited for the trip as it's the first time travelling [other than m'sia] w my bbgs!

The only sad issue is that T didn't came w us & i fell sick halfway thru ):

But i still manage to "stay strong" & shopped Bkk back! HAHAHA

Virgin Travel w Scoot!

It's tons better than TigerAirWays & JetStar!! #nooffence #statingfacts

Thou it's budget airline too, but they are flying w older SIA planes, it's still somehow higher end than budget planes. As the seats ain't as "squeezy like TAW does, surprisingly it's a huge plane like normal SIA plane does! Awesome & professional services even thou it's budget airline. The bad issue 'bt Scoot is their timing, there's no selections for flight, if you ain't rushing you could simply catch up their deals!

I paid SGD190 for Scoot Economy Two-Ways Return Flight including 15kg baggage check-in and 20kg baggage check-in. While it's peak period, few days to CNY.

CHEAPPPPPPPPPPPP RIGHTTTTTTTTTTTT?!?! 

And not forgetting DFS!

CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP CHEAP CIGARETTES!!!!!

Sgd29 for 10packs of my MarlboroBlackMenthol #smoketilyousiao

And that's the reason why i fell sick during the Bkk trip -.-

Pathetically tons of cigs + tomyum daily + Bkk's bad weather//air pollution = DEAD ME!

Plus minus two hours flight and..

YAY!! Bkk we're here!! :D how awesome and excited we all are feeling that words can't describe.

It's not like we've never been to Bkk [we ain't mountain tortoise :)] but it's really an happy issue that the whole bestf clique are travelling together, especially to shopping heaven & celebrating Pamela.A's 21st birthday there too!! As we arrived during their peak hours, to avoid traffic jams so we took the BTS to our hotel which is 15mins away from Suvarnabhumi Airport by train!

We're staying at Baiyoke Boutique, which is just behind Baiyoke Sky Hotel, located at Pratunam Market Area. Which really brings convenience to us for shopping! As it's somehow in the middle of all shopping areas. We booked the hotel thru this website www.sg.pyotravel.com which provides lots of deals and cheap rates for hotels and travelling.

Sgd49/night @ Baiyoke Boutique NETT! 

If you're going w your friend like i do, could simply split into two which be more worthwhile thou there's tons of cheap hotels in Bkk but i doubt you could get any like Baiyoke Boutique w the same price. The one we stayed was pretty good aft their renovations & upgrading, to me most importantly it must be CLEAN, as in CLEAN IN BOTH WAYS for peeps who get what i mean :) and not located at those weird & ulu alleys etc. [Omg no man xx]

I did read thru the trip advisor before i flew to Bkk, thou there's some unpleasant comments 'bt Baiyoke Boutique, on level5 & 8 or 9 can't rem clearly. [Stated by Staciy.T as she read thru out]

Luckily we got the whole stretch of level6! NOTHING HAPPEN :) except COMPLAINS!

HAHAHAHA TOO HAPPENING & NOISY MONKEYS BLAST OUR VOICES THRUOUT WHOLE LEVEL6! :D oops! 

Once we reaches our hotel rooms, threw our luggage to whichever corner #ican'tremember,

got changed and head down Pratunam Night Market for dinner & shopping time!!

Okay look below, what comes first to your mind? #hehehe

Bugis St? Pasa Malam? Exactly .. .. 

Oh ya i forgot to indicate i'm in loved w their cabbies! Cause it's in  HOT PINK!#winks

MUST TRY! MUST TRY! MUST TRY!

Traditional Wanton Mee!

It's quite little portion which fills just nice for me, and 3/4 full when i'm really hungry.

I can't imagine for those guys who're really hungry at least 4bowls? Lol.

They do not carry expensive or any unique ingredients, just simply hand-wrapped fried wanton, few pieces of char-siew, noodles and soup.

The very traditional kind, which comes in soup while not what we're having nowadays. Especially pontian wanton mee a'rd sg, black sauce/chili/ketchup mix and match the sauces as you wishes.

No they don't BUT! the soup issssssssss .. .. AWESOME! #thumbsup!

It's located at on the right lane of Pratunam Night Market if you're standing at Baiyoke Sky Hotel's Lobby direction. It's just an little pushcart stall by the roadside w few tables and chairs, quite easy to spot, look out for "hanging char-siew stalls & it's directly opposite is 711 too! Rem to add alittle of the Roman Fish Sauce which they provides on their tables, it gives a better taste to the noodles! Try it out peeps!

Definitely worthwhile!

P/s: They closes at 1am daily!

D R O O L S ? ! ? !

Bbq Meat? Chicken Wings? Prawns? Squids? Ice-Creams? // Plentyyyyyyyyyyyy!

10 x 20 x 80 x 100 x 200 Baht?!?!?!?!

Ivy.S got her huge fat prawns for 200Baht, which is a'rd Sgd8? #roughly

It's freshly barbecue infront of us, they only cook it when customer orders! Professionalism :)

From far you could sniff the fragrance of the seafood & it's really tempting!!!!!

Unfortunately, i'm not a prawn lover. Oops! Not a prawn eater i should say, neither a squid eater too..

But i'm happy enough Ivy.S enjoyed her barbecued prawns yet she "sap everything in 10mins while shopping + eating that i don't even realize she finished everything lol. Btw, i did try the squids that Jeslyn.C bought as it's really tempting me so much, the chilies they add in was thumbsupX10!!!! So chewy and sweet, plenty of juice squash in my mouth upon the first bite, adding on the chilies they gave was heaven!! I S W E A R !

Not forgetting my fav fruit! MANGOOOOOOOO!

50baht for one whole mango! Is damn bloody juicy & sweet til you'll be moved by the awesome taste hahaha! #exaggeratingonlyzzz but srsly words can't describe how good the food are there, you tried then you'll know what i mean :) 

P/s: Both barbecue & fruits stalls are just few pushcarts aft the wanton mee stalls!

It's only day1; we took 'bt 3hrs to settle down, look for our wanton mee and shop a'rd.

And this is what we got in 2hrs time // Loots of Day1! 

Gambling time aft everywhere is close. Didn't sleep at all, and shopping time when clock strikes 5am! :D Chiongggggggg .. #whichis6aminsingapore

That's all for Bkk Day1!
