Christmas in Bangkok

I didn’t think I would be here for Christmas, but here I am.

I haven’t been to Bangkok in ages. I must last have come here at least 8 or 9 years ago. I think it was with my colleagues, either a firm or department trip. I remember staying at the Pullman then on that last trip.

There was a time when because of a matter, I was coming here once a month for several months. On those trips, I stayed at the Hyatt Erawan. I don’t know why I stopped coming to Bangkok but now I cannot imagine why I would have stopped coming here.

Yesterday I went to Siam Paragon by train. Very convenient. The place is huge and even after about 6 hours there, I don’t think I covered even half the place. It is huge, open spaced with so many different products you never see in Singapore.

But the highlight of Bangkok must be the food. The food halls and restaurants are fantastic and so well priced. Multiple classy cafes, lots of desserts and great Japanese food.

I came across a pizzeria which is really great! Supposed to be one of the top pizza joints in the world. I ordered the marinara and it was good! They only have one size and it’s large. Cost me $17.

A very good day indeed. Since I am now here, am looking to go to a different mall every day.
