Bangkok 20th - 24th April 2012 Day 2

Day 2
We woke up early on our 2nd day in Bangkok, and went down Momo cafe for buffet breakfast.


Momo cafe



My breakfast for the day

I thought it was quite worth it to have breakfast included as there was no eateries located nearby, and the nearest mall, Central World Plaza was a good 10 to 15 minutes plus walk.

After a heavy breakfast, we went back to the hotel room to get changed and then took a cab down to Chinatown Sampeng Lane. I have heard about this place since the last trip but was not able to find the exact location. Instead, the cab driver drop us at the Chinatown roadside hawkers where all the seafood restaurants are, but I remember going at 4 plus so that might be the factor too.

Nevertheless, it was a gem! Great place to hunt for hair accessories!!!

We spent the whole morning and afternoon walking down the narrow aisle of Sampeng Lane and only managed to scout one end of it. It was around 2plus when we left. We are lucky to get a metered cab on the first try and managed to got back to the hotel to put down our heavy shopping box and rest for a bit.

After a short break, we took a cab down to Central World Plaza and have a late lunch over at Fuji restaurant(note: Bear's favourite!!!)









We spent the rest of the evening shopping inside Central World Plaza, enjoy the aircon. Bangkok weather was horrible, even worse than June! It's really the hottest time of the year!


I was resting on the bench when I took this, turns out to be great!



I think this was Zen department store toy department, so many bears!!!



Happy happy :)





We shopped around for a few hours, while deciding what to have for dinner. We eventually settled for KFC! I was craving for fries and western food and there was none that look appetizing to us.

We shared a 2 piece chicken meal and fries and it was great. Finally can curb my fries craving. We walked to the opposite side of the bridge outside Central World Plaza, trying to get a cab but none was willing to use meter. We eventually managed to negotiate one with a reasonable rate and got back to the hotel to enjoy the rest of the night.

And that's Day 2!
