So after a month of procrastinating I've finally decided to write about the rest of my bangkok trip
Since the vacation was all the way back to September I don't remember what we did in the morning and afternoon but if I don't it means there wasn't any thing that was really fun or memorable (or maybe it's just that I have the shittiest memory ever :3 )... but then I saw some photos and I remembered so yeah.
Chinatown
So that morning wasn't as enjoyable for me as that place wasn't air-conditioned and it was quite hot in there. (i hate sweating) Since it was right beside our hotel we decided to go there first by foot and we stupidly walked a big round before reaching there when there was a passageway from our hotel *facepalm*
Well I guess this is considered a shopping paradise for people who're soccer fans and accept counterfeit. We weren't interested in the other apparels there so we went straight up to the second floor which only sold soccer stuff like jerseys. They only cost 150-250 Baht and of course nothing that cheap is authentic but they are cheaper than the ones sold in Singapore.
Terminal 21
As I've said earlier it's been two months since the trip so I couldn't remember what was in that store but MK restaurant.
Honestly I didn't really enjoy this meal as there were many things that I didn't like that much but was forced to stuff myself. All, except this plate of roasted duck, was below average for me. The meat was really tender and the sauce was brilliantly concocted too. If I knew that this dish would taste so amazing I would've just ordered two plates of it and finish it all by myself :D
Asiatique The Riverfront
We went to Asiatique in the evening and there was some Muay Thai thing going on there when we were there but we didn't have time for it because the main reason we were there was for the lady-boy (trannie) show. I've never really watched legit Muay Thai before and the closest thing to it was watching this hong kong tvb drama called 拳王.
If you guys are going here, do not buy anything. I think that place used to sell cheap stuff but since it's quite a popular tourist attraction they increased the prices of everything. Ram, Monice and I bought three keychains thing for 200 Baht in total (i think) and we found one that costs a lot cheaper in a floating market two days later.
My eyes lit up when I saw this and knowing it was impossible to persuade my family. I told myself I would come back and get as many items as I can. I'm not even sure what I'm going to do with it. Maybe I'll be an assassin when I grow up *o*
Baan Khanita
I really love spicy food so there was no doubt I wouldn't enjoy that meal. My dad ordered three pots of spicy stuff, green curry, red curry and tom yam.
So... as it was two months since my taste buds came in contact with these delicious stomach burning food here^ I forgot what they taste like. But just so you know it was so spicy and addictive at the same time which made me drink spoon after spoon of curry directly. The amount of curry I consumed was probably sufficient to burn a hole in my stomach even after I drinking a bottle of cold water and the Thai Milk Tea (which is a must to drink in Thailand). Surprisingly this isn't sold anywhere and it was the first time I drank it that night.
There was still time before the show started so we decided to take some pictures and I stupidly went for a green tea cone. Ice cream + curry = really bad diarrhoea but I had no regrets since my stomach stopped hurting afterwards.
Calypso Bangkok
The last event for the day is a transgender (boy-girl) show which I was looking forward even though it'll probably be the weirdest thing I've ever seen.
My dad booked the seats in advance and that explains how we got the second row from the stage. And we got a cup of free drink.
This part is the funniest and you would be tearing up in laughter if you were there. To make it even more hilarious then it already is, she went down to the first row and gave a Caucasian man a kiss on the cheeks, leaving her... or his lipstick stain on his cheeks.
Since this is a transgender show, my first thought when I saw this was, 'shit were they girls?' And my dad sarcastically told me yes and I didn't know he was joking so I was mind-blown until the end when he told me he was only kidding.
On a scale from 1 to 10 how weird is this? I'd give it an 8.
