BKKxLOVIN

There's always something about BKK that leaves us wanting for more. We've been there countless of times, but it is my kind of shopping and food paradise. Here's us after work, happily departing SG despite being really drained out.


+66


The wanton mee that draws a crowd, located right beside Shibuya, opposite of Platinum Mall.


Khao Kha Moo, pork so tender.


Another one of our favourite restaurants, Hong Min Restaurant at MBK Level 3.


Star dish, scallops with broccoli and XO Sauce.


Gigantic fried prawns drizzled with yummy mayo.


Somtam at Siam Square Soi 5.


Somtam means salad in thai. First time trying out their somtam and I fell in love.


Delicious chix wings fried to perfection.


Crispy spicy fishy.


Porky.


At Platinum Fashion Mall, head down to the basement to have this bowl of CP hotdog with chilli sauce. Two thumbs up. The stall right beside the crepes.


My Crepe flavour: Strawberries and Oreo


At the food court, I love their kway chap. A must-have for me whenever I'm there. I will always opt for the maggie version instead of the kway. Apparently, their kway is different from SG's.


Mango sticky rice.


The boy's favourite street food is located at Khao San. 
BBQ meat on sticks that are really juicy and tender.


Authentic Phad Thai, so good.


We also love the banana pancakes with chocolate. Heading to Khao San just for the street food is always worth it even though it is pretty out of the way. 

What better way to end the day with an hour and a half massage in our hotel, Glow Pratunam. This is life.


BKK, you will always have my heart, I'll be back again.

+66

This isn't the first time the boy has clinched us good air ticket deals, previously it was to Perth and this time, he got us a really good deal just in time for our long weekend. What better way to celebrate and welcome the long weekend indulging in food and being in shopping heaven. Hello +66.


My cousin recommended that we give Centre Point Pratunam Hotel a try as it was considerably cheap. It was really spacious, even had our own kitchen but the air con was really noisy and the water heater was quite a pain in the ass.


We had a great view of BKK city from our hotel room.



The thing about BKK is that you can get cheap and good thai food anywhere and to be honest, Platinum Fashion Mall's food court never fails.


My favourite kway chap, this is even better than SG's.


Over-ordered at Hongmin Chinese Restaurant located at MBK 3rd level and had so much leftovers. We came to BKK when we just got together and tried out this restaurant and the scallops with XO sauce was really good, so we decided to come back to give it another shot.

The fried rice with crab paste was disappointing.


Garlic prawns with soy sauce. Prawns were not cooked to perfection, a little soggy.


The star dish. I love their XO sauce.


Salad prawns. This was good but it was a really huge serving.


Oyster omelette that I didn't like.


Mango Tango at Siam Square.


Mango Lassi.


Mango pudding, mango ice cream and mango sticky rice. Mango overload.


Teabreak at Somtam Restaurant at Soi 5 for their famous chix wings.

Strawberry fizz drink.


Candid shot of the boy. So handsome omg. I want to have such a nice smile too. I really like people with big bright smiles that warm your heart and make you feel happy too.


Chix wings that make you go ooh-lala. Topped with crispy fried garlic.


My swag cap.


Bought food back to the hotel b'cuz we were so tired from shopping and I started running a fever. Thankfully, it went away by the next morning. I don't understand why do I always fall sick when I am overseas. So frustrating. It's the nth time this has happened.



On Sunday, we woke up early to head to Big C and we spent like SGD$100 on junk food there.

Tomyam fishball noodles at Platinum Fashion Mall's food court.


Centre Point Pratunam Hotel gave us a complimentary late check-out till 6pm so we still had time to go back to the hotel to pack our bags and enjoy A&W before heading to the airport.


Currrrly fries.



Our flight got delayed for an hour.


Not very fond of their airport food but we've got no choice. This was at Mango Tree.


Phad Thai.



I love traveling with the boy. Thankful that he is always taking care of me. To many more adventures together!


Funny picture haha got my camera ready and called his name so he turned around and I snapped.


It was a really impromptu trip, booked on Thursday and we flew off in the wee hours of Friday. Just check out the amount of food that we ate over the past three days, we really are monsters. It really is a food and shopping paradise. I've missed you, BKK. We'll see you again soon.
