Dinner @ Yana Restaurant, MBK Bangkok

Our second time dinner in Bangkok. Location, still the same. Yana Restaurant, MBK.

Price: Less than 500 Baht. 

Fried rice

Look like Milk Ice Tea.  Forgot what she had for dinner

Fried egg

Fried Mee

Had a complimentary thai milk tea when we first visited MBK. Tourist needs to show the passport to the staff at the International FOod court, and free drink will be served. 

Taste great. Sweet and smell good. very nice tea smell.

The food court is also known as fifth food avenue. Visited by many tourist than local. Also served several halal meals. They also had a band performing local and international songs in the centre of the court. Not a bad place for dine in.

Coffee @ Coffee World, Khao San Road

Caffeinated in styles. The only acceptable shop we can had a good coffee, late at night along the Khao San Road.

Other features: Free wifi. Less Crowded since peeps prefer clubs. Air Conditioned.

Tastewise: Average. Cheap coffee. Very light. I would prefer stronger one

Price: Less than 100 Baht. or more or less like many coffee shops in KL

Location: Near McD or KFC. 

Mine is cappuccino and Ms N is the Latte

Breakfast @ Cotton, Shanghai Mansion, Bangkok

Our stay in Shanghai Mansion come with a complimentary breakfast buffet. We had a chance to dine in here once before leaving to Cambodia the next morning.

The restaurant, of course never received the halal cert. So, we need to be careful in selecting our choices.

Some of our choices as pic below.

Fruits and yogurt

Juice, Coffee and cereal

The ambiance. Fantastic deco

Baked beans and potatos

Buns and butter

They also had fried rice, porridge, fried eggs, dim sum etc.

Bangkok: Mango Sticky Rice

What we had at the Chatucak market is not clothes, instead the mango sticky rice. The only one we had in Bangkok and the most nicest one. 

Very generous of mango and sticky rice. With additional coconut milk coated the rice and some corn. very sweet. too sweet ladies. 

Pricewise: Reasonable, around 60 Baht per pack.

We just had it at the bench along the market's street. Pack with people. But too hungry to think about others.

This is the shop. Bigger than the boutiques available here. They had, mango stick rice, thai dessert and also the honey ice lemon tea

I had the honey drink, only 35 Baht. Very cool, sweet and tempting especially in a hot and humid weather.

Bangkok: Coconut Ice Cream

As recommended by our friends, coconut ice cream is a must try items in Thai. So, here we goes. The ice cream from 2 different sellers.

1- A hawker in front of the grand palace. Quiet cheap, 40 Baht per coconut cup. And he gave us 4 scoops of ice cream each. This is the most tastiest ice cream we had in Bangkok.

The second one, we had it at Taling Chan market along the Chao Phraya river. Not as nice as the first one. A lil bit cheaper. 35 Baht. But we only had 1 scoop of ice cream. huhu. plus, the ice cream didn't taste that sweet.

Lunch @ Yana Restaurant, MBK Bangkok

We had our late lunch here. Dinner also here. no other place. no time to google and exploring the city as we had a limited time. crazily hungry and tired.

Restaurant: Yana

Location: Level 5 or 6 of MBK Mall

Halal and Clean. Plenty of dining table. 

Pricewise: Expensive. First trial = 840 Baht.

Tastewise: Seriously good and worth the baht.

Juice

Hot Black Coffee - Really relieved my soar throat

The must try Tom Yam

The chicken cooked with cashewnut

Mango Salad - super yum yum

Yeah.. our luxury dinner. Actually, it was quite a lot for 2 girls. ordered the foods while we thought we were so so hungry. had to pack some back to hotel. too much.

Recommended to visit this restaurant. Especially when you come with family. =)

“Artistic & gorgeous hotel”

Reviewed August 23, 2013

love this hotel so much. so beautiful, so nice. big room with all the amenities. tv, kitchenete, basin, bathroom, big cabinets, fridge, make up area, carpet and the most important thing, the big supersize honeymoon bed..haha.. for a backpacker like us, it's such a heaven to sleep on the very comfy bed. the interior of the hotel make us feel like in old china dynasty with the pond in the middle. old chinese painting. everything is nice.

Room Tip: Honeymoon suite

Corridor heading to the lift. Entrance at Ground Floor

Interior along the corridor

The big awesome pond at Level 1 - near lobby area

Really nice and cool environment

One of the suit near the pond

Waiting Area near receptionist. The stair connected to Cotton restaurant at upper level

We stayed at level 4. 

The hotel provided ample spaces for relaxing and chit chatting. and even mini studio for ancient chinese photograph session. Unfortunately, our schedule was so hectic. We can't even sit on the red bench at all

Cool eh.. the best hotel so far

Chinese tea set. Never tried. Just take pictures

Dressing area

Cupboards and towel rack

Wash basin area

Important place, the bathroom. Got mirror everywhere.

Our honeymoon bed

Silk pyjamas

Along the corridor

Pricewise = average.

Cleanliness = yes.

Service = Staff are nice and polite. Allow us to place our backpack at the lobby area before check in (while we were away). Place not crowded. We had a decent a pretty good stay here.

Location: Near to Hua Lamphong station. But far from shopping area. We need to travel by tuk tuk or taxi every time we need to go for shopping spree. So, in future, i will go for a hotel nearer to malls.

Have a nice stay !!!
