Bangkok Trip Day 2
ITS THE BOY'S BIRTHDAY on day 2. Having Bird Nest drink every morning in BKK. THATS THE LIFE MAN! Initially wanted to have ISAO for brunch but they were close for 3 days :( So we had our plan changed!
Couple OOTD before heading out for the LEGENDARY wanton noodle.
Have been craving for this when im planning for the trip. Read many blogs and reviews stating that this is a MUST TRY in BKK. The place is actually very easy to locate. Its near the shopping heaven PLATINUM MALL.
The noodle is springy and flavourful. The noodle comes in very small portion. The boy can even finished it within 3 mouths. They added pork lard to the noodle and that explains the flavourful taste of noodles in your mouth. I can have this for breakfast everyday and it cost around SGD2 per bowl only. Order at least 2 bowls if you are hungry or save the stomach space for more food later on.

The restaurant will always be filled with Singaporeans and Locals. Arrive there early as there will be queue but the turnover rate is quite fast. Don't worry if you can't read or speak Thai because the lady whom is taking the order knows Chinese. Just speak Chinese to her for your order.
Directions to Sab x 2 Wanton Mee: Cross over to opposite of Platinum Fashion Mall from overhead bridge and turn left. Walk straight and you will be able to spot Shibuya 19 or McDonald's. Just turn right from the junction and walk straight and the destination is on your left. Its only about 5mins walk.
Nearest BTS station: Chit Lom
Sab x 2 Wanton Mee (Pratunam)
4/32-33 Soi Petchburi 19 | Pratunam, Bangkok, Thailand
Operating Hours: 9am - 4pm daily
Next we headed to Terminal 21 for shopping. They had different themes for each level like Hollywood, San Francisco, Japan and many more. The prices there tend to be more expensive than Platinum Mall but the boy bought many t-shirts from here. The t-shirt prices are reasonable for guys like 200baht each. There is also Taokaenoi Land at the basement and we bought lots of seaweed inside cause it is wayyyy cheaper.
BTS station: Asok
After shopping, we headed back to hotel to drop our stuffs and head out again to SIAM for dinner. From Mercure Hotel, you can actually walk to Siam Discovery shopping mall and all the other shopping malls in SIAM area are just located to each other.
Decided to stop by Let Them Eat Cake for dessert before our dinner. They are famous for their Thai Ice Tea Tart. We ordered a glass of Thai Ice Tea, Thai Ice Tea Tart and Lemon Tart. The prices in their menu are almost the same as SG's Cafes.
Their Thai Ice Tea is so nice but milk tea in Thailand can never go wrong. The Thai Ice Tea Tart taste the same as the drink but in solid form. So those who loves thai ice tea will love this. It has the sweet and aroma flavour of the tea. I LOVE their lemon tart a lot. It taste so refreshing and their crumbly biscuit base was good.

After dessert we went over to Somtam Nua at Siam Square for dinner. Its very easy to locate. Somtam Nua gets the CNNGO's award and they are famous for their papaya salad and fried chicken.
Almost everyone dining there will order at least a basket of fried chicken. It is crispy on the outside with succulent juicy tender meat inside.
The other must order dish is the pork shoulder. The meat is soft and tender and not the usual kind of pork that we had which is too hard to chew.
Nearest BTS station: Siam
Somtam Nua (Siam Square)
392/14 Soi Siam Square 5, Rama 1 Road
This is the MUST HAVE street food in BKK. You can find this in almost every street night market. Our hotel is near the Siam night market and we are lucky enough to find this selling right outside our hotel. Its Prata wrap with banana drizzled with condensed milk. The great thing about this is they only made it when you order. BEST to eat it while its hot and it is crispy and sweet.
