Bangkok Day 3

Did I mentioned that I googled for best food near Pratunam area and "the best wanton mee in Bangkok" popped out?! On my second day we actually went all the way to this restaurant but it was closed for 2 days. So we came back on the stated date open for business. We took tuk tuk there and in fact not many locals know about this wanton mee place. Only tourists do. So happy when we saw the shop is open. 

But again we gotta queue for like 20 mins to get our seat. 


The pork leg rice


Wanton mee stall. The two famous food served in this restaurant


We ordered 1 pork leg rice and 2 wanton mee. 



Looking back at this wanton mee pic makes me hungry again. At first we ordered one bowl each. I could say the portion is quite small actually and it's like half of the wanton mee in malaysia. It was too delicious! I didnt had enough of it and in the end we decided to order another bowl to share. It is delicious because they added chu yau char (fried pork rinds) to the noodles. Seriously sedap! Cant find such nice wanton mee in Malaysia. 

Then we took cab to Chatuchak Market. According to my colleagues and some blogs, there are lots of clothes to buy and it's really cheap. So I decided to shop there since I havent been buying anything since the first day. The cab dropped us at dont know which entrance and we just got down after taking our nap in the cab. 

I took the map and realized there's so many entrance and there actually have certain section for clothes. The weather was super hot. We asked the information counter and they directed us to the clothes section. We walked all the way in and out of the maze (yes maze coz it's too huge and they have a lot of lorongs)

Found the coconut ice-cream stall. 

We decided to curi curi cut queue but dare not..lol! In the end we gotta queue again. Basically every nice food in bkk you gotta queue for it. 

A chiobu in front of us. 



Quite panic when it's our turn coz the man will ask,"choose 2!" and you gotta be quick. I couldnt make up my mind and just simply pick 2 choices


Free coconut juice too! 




The coconut ice-cream taste normal to me, maybe because it's quite sweet and I dont really like sweet stuffs. But basically everyone will go to this coconut ice-cream in Chatuchak. 

Next stop - back to hotel to sleep. Tak boleh tahan the super hot weather! 

At night we had dinner with my uncle, who has been staying in bkk for more than 10 years. He brought us to this seafood place where the locals usually go to. Tourists hardly will go all the way to this place coz it's quite far from the town area. 






All the high cholesterol food. Hahah! 

He ordered the sticky mango rice for us to try. I could say this is the best I've tried coz the sticky rice is soft and tasty. Unlike most of the sticky rice which are quite hard. 


After dinner, he brought us to CDC for yam cha. I was so shy hiding away behind the bf all the time. This hang out area is so classy and you can see those pretty thai girls hanging out there dining and drinking. Ahh so malu coz I only wear a tee and shorts, I thought we will only go for dinner then back to hotel. 




Nice environment huh??
