To get to Chinatown (Yaowarat) Bangkok, the fastest way is via the boat ride, since it avoids traffic and it's cheap. First, we took the BTS to Saphan Taksin, and once we're out from the station we followed the crowd and saw Sathorn Pier barely 3 minutes away. At the pier though, it could be confusi

"Too nice to eat?" That was what the owner said to me when she saw me snapping away pictures of my noodles using my iPhone that afternoon. It certainly shocked me a little, since she was coming from behind, but as soon as I started telling her that I wanted to blog about her food, she was all smiles [...]

A few weeks ago, Saucer and I were at The Curve for a movie appointment. We purposely went there earlier to have dinner first, since there are so many choices of restaurants there.

Apart from watching fireflies in Kuala Selangor, another reason we went there was for their fresh and cheap seafood. On the way towards the town, we passed by this Malay stall selling fruits, snacks and coconut water. Seeing it was such a hot and sunny afternoon, we stopped by for some coconuts!

After a day with the monkeys at Bukit Melawati, it was time for us to return to the Firefly Park Resort. Since it was a long weekend, we decided to put a night at the small resort.

A few days ago, Saucer and I brought his mom together for a short trip to Kuala Selangor. Our main intention was to visit the Firefly Park to witness the glowing species at night before they go extinct.

Even from afar, Garden Lifestyle Store and Cafe looked majestically green and white with the decoration concept of an outdoor garden. It was a restaurant that I'd always wanted to try out but never had the chance to do so, until recently. Situated just at the corner, facing e @ Curve, this restauran [...]

As the saying goes, "Food brings the world together". And so it did. For the few of us Tweeples, that is.
