1810h (BKK TIME)
Made our way to MBK from Siam station via foot. It was quite troublesome to change lines just for 1 station. MBK is located at National Stadium station. Along the way, we saw a lot of vendors setting up stall for the night market.

Went back to the same shop in MBK for our foot massage. As Aiken is still too young for foot massage, he sat beside us and the staff kept commenting that he is handsome and look very fair. The massage was 300 baht for an hour. Think the price increased slightly.

1940h (BKK TIME)
After foot massage, we went to Ping Restaurant at Pathumwan Princess Hotel @ MBK to have dinner at the Ping's Thai Teochew Seafood Restaurant. It was interesting that we did not think of visiting this restaurant when we stay at Pathumwan Princess Hotel the last time but only heard about the great food recently...haha.

For starters. All was good but the Thai fish cake was a bit too spicy but not bad.
|
Sorry guys, but this is still my favorite.... :P
|
Not presentable but it is quite ok.
|
The staff forgot about my fried oyster omelette....anyway, was too full by then. Ordered this coconut jelly for dessert and it was big!

Poor snowtrooper. He was sweating so much inside the costume. Saw him trying to wipe his face in between shots.

Managed to speak to the minder for this individual shot. Lucky that the place was not crowded.

My best buy from BKK. CREED is my favorite perfume and it costs quite a fair bit in SG. Got these at a good deal from Siam Paragon (beware of fakes). Each bottle was going at 10% discount (with some more discount for tourists), buy 2 big bottle, get the small bottle (ladies perfume FOC). Got 400 baht back in gift vouchers. Not to mention, tax refund also!!! Price of each bottle (125ml) is the price of the small bottle (75ml) in SG !!! More info about CREED. https://www.creedfragrances.co.uk/
