BANGKOK ROCKS! 2009
------

went to bangkok last friday with some colleagues. i went there because i wanted to meet the TH SSM team (they are the nicest people on earth, and i really feel close to P'Yu and the rest of the team); and also to spend time with Sarah as she is going back to SYD next week.

i had fun, we did lots of touristy things, and we also went there to shop. and while the rest of them went to party, i slept, so i really had a good rest. HAHA!


sirocco is located at the 64th floor of empire building in silom, and it has a great view of the city. one of our colleagues actually recommended for us to visit that place, its a must see according to him, and it was actually great. service staff are great as well, they are very attentive. of course, drinks cost a bomb. the mojito i ordered costs me THB 410++.


sarah and i had our picture taken with the great view of the city, although you can barely see it. its really lovely to go there at the evening.


the temples in TH are nothing compared to what i saw in BEIJING, but at least they have temples. we paid 50 THB each to go inside, and we rode the rive cruise reach there. we rented the private boat that costs around 500THB each, and we started in the shagri-la pier, which is of course beside the shangri-la hote.


i saw RED MANGO from antons'(diaz) blog went he went to the states, and i didn't really pay attention cause the yogrut craze has no effect on me at all. the name rang a bell on my small head, so i went in to try..


this yogurt is delicious, and i am not even a fan. i had orange, peach and kiwi as fruit toppings, THB 89.


so i had another one the next day, which is bigger, still with 3 toppings, THB 119. i had kiwi, orange and bluberry.


cabbage and condoms is a place in sukhumvit area, and i have heard from this since back then. they have a very unique concept, they had characters made out of condoms (which i am hoping is not recycled). i had pad thai, and it tasted great, THB 100.


i went to suan lum night bazaar with Satya on sunday evening, and we bought a few things, and this is the facade. its beautiful, next time i will spend more time there and have dinner there as well, they open 6pm till midnight everyday. its located in silom.

on monday, when everyone has left, i had lunch at this restaurant in central world. i remember going there before and had great food, so i went in again. i had 2 dishes all by myself.


pad thai - again. yes, i know i have been stuffing myself with that lately.


spicy beef noodle.
