Bangkok - City of Angels

I always think once the kids started their working life, will be quite difficult to get everyone in the family to travel together.  But this trip happened because younger son could take few days off and elder son loves cities as he likes taking photos, also because he has some last year annual leave to clear.  

So we managed to go on a short but sweet family trip with lots of good food and catch up with sister & her hubby.

We left home at 6.30am as afraid of morning traffic even though our Air Asia X flight ETD 10.50am. We reached airport by 8am, after drop baggage for younger son, we went to Priority Lounge for breakfast, cleared immigration and off to boarding gate.

I can say that this trip was more on food rather than places of interest to visit since we have been to Bangkok few times. Swensen Rum & Raisin ice cream and Pork burger a must since we do not have these in KL. We had pork burger in the Suvarnabhumi Airport on our return trip.

Places where we had our meals:

1. T & K Seafood at Yoawarat China Town for seafood dinner

Indoor air condition or outdoor for lots of seafood choice. We had grilled lobster, grilled squid, bbq cockles etc.

2. Pa Tong Go, You Tiow with pandan kaya custard - MIchelin Guide Street Food - delicious dipping into the kaya custard.

3 Nam Sing Bird Nest, Yaowarat - you can have the small individual bowl here.

4. Savoey at Terminal 21 for local thai dinner

Food was good, place was packed but did not have to wait for long for food to be served

5. Pala Pizza Romano at  BTS/MRT Sukhumvit Asok - sourdough pizza for supper

Love the Sourdough pizza whereas son had risotto

6. Here Hai at Thonglor - Michelin Guide Seafood lunch

Be prepared to wait as the queue is long. We waited less than an hour. We had crab omelette, crab fried rice, river prawn etc

7. Thong Smith at Central World

Boat noodle, choice of beef or pork

8. Kub Kao Kub Pla at Siam Paragon

Few Signature Thai dishes you should tried here. I love the green curry, creamy and fragrant.

9. Thai Niyom at Ploencit Road - Michelin Bib Gourmand array Thai Cuisine from Chiangmai to Hadyai

Thumbs up for the delicious food

Shopping was only done at Big C for some snacks/souvenirs. Though both sons have their own separate visit to Wat Arun, we had our prayers at Four Faced Budha (Erawan Shine) and window shopping at Terminal 21 since we stayed nearby.

Our stay was only 3 nights but hope to be back soon. It was 2 rooms at Airbnb, 10 mintues walk to Terminal 21.  Though my sister who is working in Bangkok has been recommending so many hotels for me to consider.  Will consider staying in hotel for my next trip.
