Bangkok trip (Day 1)

It's been 4 years since my last visit to Bangkok so decided to go again... Very sorry for unable to attend my friends wedding because of this trip too ~

This is suppose to be His birthday trip so I do all the planning, booking and etc, Im quite proud of myself :D
Arrived at BKK in the evening around 5pm local time and check in to hotel at Pratunam area, Hotel Budacco.
It was raining and quite jam in the journey to city area and our hotel was quite difficult to find so end up the cab driver actually called the hotel to get direction, quite a nice cabbie uncle :)

We got checked in to Oriental room, located at the top floor, 8th floor, very spacious and quieter than lower floors. The only downside is the lift only service up to 7th floor so we have to climb up and down everyday.

Oriental theme room  
big space to put my shopping loots :)
study room
toilet but kinda small


Breakfast buffet spread but nothing much to shout about
After checked in and freshened up, we headed out again to go to the restaurant that I've wanted to visit for ages - Cabbage and Condom restaurant. It is located at Sukhumvit area , near BTS Asok station and we walked over there followed the instructions I copied from one of the taiwan blogger.

Cabbage and Condom restaurant is operated under a organization called PDA (Population and Community Development Association) to promote better understanding and acceptance of family planning. This restaurant also helps to generate income to support various development activities of the PDA. You can find out more at HERE .

Safety First! Lol..

Food was so so only






We ordered 1 vege, 1 chicken, 1 tom yum gong and 1 mango stick rice, all small portion. The bill was total up to 860 Baht ! It was really not cheap and the food taste really so so only and lower standard than what I'd imagined, definitely a disappointment for me :(
After our stomach were being taken care of, we went to look around the restaurant. As the name suggest, the decoration material for the restaurant is CONDOMS in different colour and sizes !

C family
 That's all for Day 1~

Cheers,
Pei Chin
