Bangkok: 04 - 06 Sep ~ Food

09 Sep 2012 (Sun):

This is a post on food. Nope, not a chef recommending the most delightful meals available but what we had on our trip.


Our 1st lunch @ Siam Paragon. Pictures were always so deceiving & yet, I can never take my eyes off them. Cripsy shrimp omelette rice, how does this name sounds? Normal? Mouth watering? Okay, so i thought its does sound nice. I got a shock when my order came. A few pieces of tiny shrimp cut into bits; note: not even a whole prawn or two. And the mentioned crispyness? Boo hoo hoo, its actually fried eggs. You know, the kind you get inside some fish soup. And yes, i paid 55baht for that. Well, what the heck? Its only SGD$2.20....

Daddy & the kids ate pineapple fried rice instead & it cost 60baht per order. I tried one mouth & I almost puked. Horrible! The rice were soaked in pineapple juice & it was sooooooooooo.... SOUR!!!!


We booked our show with dinner via the internet. Okay, so there were many reviews on the food. Yes, negative ones. But, I thought i should ignore those reviews & hopefully, the food gets a 2nd chance. Nay, who am i kidding? Congrats to all those who wrote the negative reviews on the forums & websites. I am defintely on your side.


This was the seafood dinner we had on the 2nd evening. We ordered Coconut Cream Paste Seafood Soup, Asparagus with Mushroom, Grilled Tiger Prawns & Sweet & Sour Fish. All for.... ready... 3378baht ~ SGD$135. Gulp!


Okay la, to give some credits, the ambience was great & the service provided was good .


Lunch on our last day was at ( opps, I've forgotten to jot down the name of the restaurant). However, the place was great & the scenary was so blissful. Food was not too bad either. And, i apologise, i cant remember the price at all..


And this was our dinner at the airport prior to our departure back to Singapore. See the words on the collage? Yup, you get it. There were defintely other restaurants, cafes, diners to settle your dinner. Forget about this one. 635baht for some roasted pork & veggie dinner? That's SGD25, my friend!
