Bangkok Nov 2010

Finally decided on the dates to Bangkok, There we were again shopping eat and shopping!!

 My fren's fav Arnoma Hotel Bkk. Which is located at right opposite Central World so we can save time & transport $ travelling.

The hotel room allocated was at a different side of the hotel which wasn't the same as our last visit as part of the hotel was under renovation.

After checking into the hotel and settling our luggages, we headed out for to checkout our fav shopping spots if they were in operation. That area was affected by the bombing.

We were happy that Central World had just resumed biz, but slightly disappointed Zen was still under renovation...

This Tiger event setup was interesting! Most of the deco used were recycled.

Chandelier made of empty glass bottles. Table and chairs made of wooden crates.

Cargo containers were used as part of the setup.

Overview of the setup. Even plastic crates were used as part of the lighting decos.

A tiger mascot was mounted upside down on the makeshift ceiling.

The life begins at night! "Tiger" wording placed together with bottle caps!

We took up a half day Bkk city tour as I wanted to explore or Bkk instead of shopping all the time.

I can't remember what temple was this but we had to take a boat ride to cross the river to get to the temple.

My 1st time seeing someone selling things on the boat.

On the way to the temple, we were told the fishes in the river were guardian of the temple so no fishing allowed. But we can feed the fished. So we bought some bread from I can't remember where or from who, and fed the fishes. There were so many of them!!

Whenever we go Bkk, MK steamboat is a must to eat!!

There's only one soup base and it should be vegetable soup according to the pictures on the paper mat which they laid under their cutlery setup. My fren love their thai chilli and their roasted duck is a must try.

While eating half way, I think the music was their que, all the staff started to dance a signature dance.

Though it was just a short moment, all the diners, including us were entertained by their move.

After shopping, walking, shopping and its time to eat, we finally decided to try out this interesting Korean BBQ restaurant. The equipment above to suck up the smoke can be pushed up if we don't need to use it.

Yummy ice cream desert!!!

Must buy whenever I go Bkk!!
