Bangkok Shopping Trip - Day 5

Day 5 - 29 May 2019 Wednesday

Summary
  1. Chalerma Park
  2. MBK center
  3. Siam Square
  4. Siam Center
  5. Siam Paragon
  6. Central World
  7. Lam Cha-Reon Seafood 
  8. Big C
9.30 am - Chalerma Park was near our accommodation, and since there was still some time, and the sun was less glaring, we decided it was time to take pictures of the street art. There weren't any people at all.








9.45 pm - We climbed the stairs to the skywalk. MBK center was yet to open when we reached. It was warm but there were some shades so it was better than nothing.





10 am - Many stores were not opened so we went to Boots which were opened. We shopped at Boots, buying the tourist's favorite items. We realised that stores at different place may have different prices.  

By the time we shopped finished Boots, most stores were opened. So I think if you plan to come in the morning come after 11 am. 

A renown shop selling T-shirts
 We walked to ALA ART at 2nd floor. You need to exit the building to walk to another building. The only highlights of the building was the street art design on the walls. There were many stalls selling business wear there.






We went to 6th floor, MBK food island for lunch. 



Taste better than crab meat fried rice
As time was limited we shopped specific shops at each level.

6th Floor - Craft village (there wasn't much unique or special items)


Amazing metal art on display. Only after that then we realised it was for sale. Their store was below.

5th Floor - MBK lounge

Show your passport, filled up a form and as a tourist, you will be able to get a tourist card where you discount at certain stores (we didn't use it in the end).

Only when asked, did they offer pineapple biscuit and drinks (water or coffee). The portion was quite big so if you are not hungry, can just ask for 1 plate.

There wasn't anyone there. You can sit there and rest. There were charging station.




4th Floor - Daiso
3rd Floor - Fashion clothing
G Floor - Tops market

We went to Siam Square and Little Zoo Cafe. However, we realised that we didn't bring out enough money. We can either eat something nice or go to Little Zoo Cafe. In the end, we chose to spend money to eat something nicer.


The price was more expensive than the price I researched online. The place was down an alley. We saw people going in, so even though the place was a bit out of place, it was still quite popular.

We were lucky as usual, at the atrium of the shopping mall (I think is Siam Center) there were animal soft toys display.









Saw this inside the mall

We didn't really shopped at the shopping malls because it was obvious it was over our budget.

Siam Center was connected to Siam Paragon too.

Interesting cake design

I didn't manage to take a clear and nice picture of the Harrods bear at London, but here I did!



There were many popular seafood restaurant here. The price was expensive though because it was based on the weight of the seafood.



We walked to the Central World via the skywalk. It was a long walk. I thought it was just beside Siam Paragon, but walking to Central World via the skywalk was really long. 

We wanted to eat food court at Central World but when we reached we realised there weren't any food court! 

6 pm - We finally decide to eat at Lam Cha-Reon Seafood (recommended by some blogger). There were actually one branch at other shopping mall.  






Seafood Pineapple Rice


It was delicious! The crab meat taste fresh. 

There were some stalls in front of Central World selling food. The barbecue meat tasted nice. 

We walked up the stairs connected to the skywalk and went to Big C again. 

9 pm - Reached accommodation.
