Day 2: Spending our Thai baht like fa-la-la-la

We woke up early at 8am to use the hotel gym as GW wanted to keep up with his fitness. 
And here's our OOTD, finds it funny why I took OOTD since its just t-shirt and shorts everyday.
Our initial plan was to eat the famous sabx2 wanton mee which everyone was raving about, we made our trip there and was horrified at the sight of the super long queue!! At least 30 people lining up by the narrow roadside filled with busy traffic and people pushing carts. Gave up the idea and had breakfast at Starbucks at the next street. Feels so sucky to eat at Starbucks in Bangkok but we were really famished and didn't want to look elsewhere.


Lunch was at greyhound cafe, another highly recommended place by bloggers.
But I think the food so so only and quite expensive by Thai standard. But they do have very pretty drinks to make up for. Will go there for drinks only next time. Oh and the service was sad. No smile, no hello, no thank you, no talking from the waiter who was serving us.


Watched Insideous at Siam paragon. 
The place is so grand and spacious. 
Our VIP seating was perfect and the service, impeccable.


Some pasar malam street food which we couldn't resist.


Had bbq cockles, giant squid and coconut ice cream.


Our highlight of the trip. 
The Red sky rooftop bar on the 55th floor of Centara grand hotel. 


What a romantic place to have dinner...


The restaurant fifty five.


Took a welfie at the rooftop bar.




A lovely place to chill and enjoy the beautiful sunset of the bangkok skyline.


Japanese food for dinner.
The lobster sashimi we had was awesome!!!
Can still see the lobster moving its feelers while we savour it.


Assorted sushi and lobster miso soup.


We are going to tuck in!!!
Now I know where my extra 2kg came from liao.


Desserts at AfterYou cafe.
The shibuya honey toast is very addictive and we came back for it again on our last day.

Day 3: Taking it slow and easy

Taking OOTD as usual.


Decided to go check out the queue at sabx2 with a contingency plan of A&W breakfast should the queue look ridiculous. To our pleasant surprise there's only about 10 people queuing in front of us, maybe it's due to the morning rain earlier that deter people from going. Oh man I'm drooling at the picture of the fatty pork knuckle now.


Had to share table with strangers and almost all the patrons in there are Singaporeans.
We ordered 2 bowls of wanton mee, pork knuckle, intestines and a bowl of rice to share. 330 baht.
It's really sibeh the ho chiak.


Then suddenly GW wanted to eat rambutans. 
1 big bag for 30 baht. 


Next up at Siam Square, we had a little snack at Mr Jones Orphanage.
 GW was telling me why the cafe has such a sad name. Haiz.


Posing with our 100 baht shades.


GW's americano.
My sister will love this coffee mug.


Waffle set at 299 baht, comes with a mango smoothie.


Then we took the BTS from the Siam station to Asok station to check out the Terminal 21 mall. 
It's a mall with different country capital themes on every level. How cool is that! There's Carribean, Rome, Paris, Tokyo, London, Istanbul, San Francisco and I-cannot-recall-anymore.




Istanbul is so pretty!


Thai food lunch at random restaurant in the mall.


Ordered seafood tomyam soup, curry soft shell crab and sweet sour snapper fillet. The food there is nice but somehow the fish had a weird smell. 


We then cab back to hotel. GW took a rest in the room while I went for my first ever Thai massage at a random massage parlour in the opposite mall.
 I had the foot, shoulder, hand, back and head massage for 1 hour @ 200 baht. It was heavenly.
Why do I discover this only during the last night of our trip!!?!? If not I sure go for it every day.
After feeling all energised, we walked to Central world to catch a movie, San Andreas.
