Last weekend, several of us went to bangkok mainly for shopping and eating.
Travelling to Bangkok on Jetstar
We stayed in Baiyoke Suite Hotel which is quite near to many of the shopping areas. Quite convenient to tourists especially like us who were there for shopping. Haha. The hotel was quite clean, much cleaner to what I expected it to be.
The view from our hotel room.
The BTS in bangkok. BTS is their public train transport. The environment makes me think of the train I took in KL some time back.
The first day was spend at Chatuchak Weekend Market. Due to the l0ng check-in crowd that was seen earlier in Changi Airport, we hadnt got time to have our breakfast. Finally, we settled our breakfast-cum-lunch at a roadside stall in the market. A plate of fried rice plus drink add up to less than 60baht for a person. We probably couldnt find something cheaper here in Singapore. The food was so-so and taste like “Cai tau kueh” to us.
At the platform, waiting for the BTS to Ratchathewi. Mo Chit to Ratchathewi is only 30Baht.
Forced smile. All were tired from the walk and heat at the market. Ratchathewi is the station to alight to get to our hotel. As it was our first day, we don’t know whichever way is nearer to the hotel and ended up walking quite a distance.
After resting for awhile, we went out in search for dinner which eventually led us to being scammed FOR THE FIRST TIME. Delighted that tuk tuk only cost 10Baht for a to-and-forth trip to a restaurant, we all agreed dumbly and ended up paying 800Baht relunctantly for some not-filling dinner.
After that scam meal, we had our next dinner at this indian restaurant near our hotel. The food was much better and price was reasonable as well.
I ordered a Thai Spicy Fried with a bowl of rice. It’s actually sliced chicken meat complete with the spicy sauce.
This is my Thai Spicy Fried! 
shiokest meal of the day! Hehe!
