Places to eat in Bangkok

Eating out in Bangkok is fun and all sorts of cuisines are found. Best Italian restaurants, Korean, Japanese and all kinds.

But, while you go about your shopping in Bangkok you might want to try the MBK food court or better still the cinema floor is full of restaurants.

You can even visit their website and see where they are if you want to make a point of trying eating out something Viet http://www.vietcuisinerestaurant.com/home.htm, oops unfortunately it is in Thai. Anyway on the cinema floor of MBK.

Im going to travel next week so for 2 weeks I post randomly or nothing at all but as soon as I come back I will share with you all the adventures

HuaHin travels: Weekend getaways

Places to eat in Huahin: Takiab



When we stayed in Napalai hotel in Takiab beach in Huahin Thailand we mostly went by local transport to town for a Pizza.

But, just infront of Napalai Hotel there is a nice restaurant called Soleil. We tried it the second time we went to Hua Hin and the food was good. The following evening I wanted to eat at the same restaurant but it was a day off so was closed.

But Soleil I will come back because I want to eat the potato purèè with meat balls the best have tasted.
If you are staying in this area try this restaurant.
Here are pictures:

This is Napalai Hotel in Huahin if you are looking for a place to relax for a weekend. The rooms are clean and new and a swimming pool to relax after a walk back from the beach. Would definitely stay in this hotel again.

Vibrant Street to pass an afternoon enjoying coffee in Bangkok

If you are staying in Bangkok for some time and you are tired of crowded markets, temples and need to enjoy an afternoon relaxing with friends a place I would advice you to go is on Thonglor (pronounced as Thonglaw), from Thonglor Bts station you can walk up or take a taxi or even a motorcycle.

There are many restaurants to stop by of all types , Japanese, Korean, Italian, first food, Starbucks, beer garden and many more. I just cannot finish them all I should take some time to post on each of them from the beginning.

But now the heat has come back after a pleasant December and January. So you might want to stop for an afternoon ice cream at Toscanini Icecream Buffet
