On our last night in Bangkok, we opted for a quiet and relaxing sit-down meal in one of our all-time favourite restaurants, Ban Khun Mae. After a week’s worth of street food overload, we just had to have something different. ? Ban Khun Mae is located in Siam Square, just across the road from Som […]
I’m the kind of traveller who likes to head straight to the nearest supermarket upon checking in at the hotel so as to stock up my room with essential supplies like drinking water. It is also kinda fun to explore the supermarket at the same time just to see if there’s any new and interesting […]
I had probably only eaten green (unripe) papaya on a few occasions before I visited Vietnam. In Hanoi, I ate it at least once a day because it was a very common relish that was often paired with nuoc cham (Vietnamese dipping sauce) in various dishes like bun cha, bun bo nam bo, banh cuon […]
There’s always room for dessert at After You Dessert Cafe in Bangkok. ? After an enjoyable meal of som tam and fried chicken at Som Tam Nua, we popped over to After You Dessert Cafe that was just a stone’s throw away. I never fail to eat my favourite Thai street foods like moo ping, […]

Visiting Chinatown Bangkok has always been a huge highlight of my every trip here because there are so much to see and so much to eat. If you’ve missed out my earlier post […]
Getting around Bangkok is relatively easy as most places of interest, shopping malls and eateries are well-connected via an extensive transportation network. While transport options are inexpensive, I do like to explore the city on foot which is a good way to exercise (burn more calories to eat more street food later, lol) and experience the vibrant […]
Earlier I had mentioned that I had bought the entire (well, almost) range of Maepranom brand curry pastes and this was the Yellow Curry that I had made. It tasted somewhat similar to the regular Chinese style curry which was not bad though I still prefer my usual A1 Instant Chicken Curry Sauce (see my […]
My energy level has been really low in recent weeks. It’s just this feeling of malaise and fatigue that refuses to go away. And it doesn’t help that I keep wanting to fall asleep in the day and yet I’m still not able to sleep properly at night. Also, there have been frequent bouts of […]
