Ban Khun Mae @ Siam Square

my final post on BKK !~

Well, sis #2 and I have been doing some research for a d
ecent restaurant to dine-in (as the ones we visited BKK about 5 years ago have all been closed down! *boohoo*)!

finally we stumbled upon Ban Khun Mae
situated in Siam Square

a 2 storey restaurant (or was it 3?)
=D

They actually serve Buffet for dinner -
but ala carte is available nevertheless !

The following are the dishes we ordered --
and I must say, every dish is recommended and a must try!

dish #1 - tom yum gong spicy level 5/5


dish #2 - panaeng (red curry) chicken
all our dishes are chicken (as the Bf does not take beef)
but you may opt for beef

dish #3 - green curry chicken
my all time favorite

dish #4 - catfish salad a MUST try -- i repeat -- M.U.S.T!
the fish taste like cotton candy n melts in the mouth


dish #5 - stir fry basil chicken


dessert - thab thim throb

Total damage
(if my memory did not fail it -- mind you I went to BKK in May & it's already September now -- please excuse my procrastination in blogging)
--THB1200 (pretty affordable huh?)!
:)

*****

To end my post(s) on BKK,
Here are some random facts of BKK --


Jam / Car & People congestion is a norm



Baiyoke Sky (left) is a pretty famous & pricey hotel (RM300++ per night)
whilst its sister hotel Baiyoke Boutique (right) is erm .....
(please avoid booking that one unless you would like to have some sleepless n relentless nights)



Tae kae noi & Naraya goodies makes great souvenirs



for my instance, I bought lotsa pocket tissue covers
(& the elephant keychains are from a gift stall in Chatuchak market)



Shopping is must for ladies !!~
Cheap clothes, accessories & bags
(Perhaps the quality is so-so -- but I can guarantee you can at least enjoy wearing them 2-6 months before it wears out!)



Place to shop:-

(for cheap & good bargains -- ranging from as low as THB 100 per piece - THB 450 per piece)


1. Platinum Fashion Mall
(mostly for girls & trust me you will go crazy)

2. Chatuchak Market
(wholesale available)

3. MBK
(for guys)


Oh, btw one of our luxury car(s) here in KL is a taxi in Bangkok !
