Land of Ong Bak Day 4 - Faridah Fatornee Restaurant, Bangkok

Assalamualaikum. สวัสดี!

Thanks to other bloggers who have been so generous on sharing the halal restaurant(s) in Bangkok. This time, the restaurant I went located at the Ratchathewi area. Aku pun mau lah juga share info ni. 

When there is a mosque, there will definitely be halal restaurant(s) in the vicinity. Bangga kembang kempis hidung tengok ada kedai halal di tempat yang majoriti masyarakat diorang adalah bukan Muslim. Gigih mencari rezeki diorang ni, salute toing². Semoga Allah kurniakan rezeki yang murah & melimpah ruah atas usaha diorang ni. Insha Allah, amin amin.

Land of Ong Bak Day 3 - Terminal 21, Bangkok / Dinner at Beirut Restaurant, Pat Phong

Assalamualaikum. สวัสดี!

Sambungan dari sini. 

While drafting the itinerary for this trip, I deliberately put Terminal 21 in the list. Lepas baca entry si Diana, terus aku pun terkinja mau jejakkan kaki. As said previously, misi trip kali ni adalah untuk keluar masuk mall sebanyak mungkin. Burning holes in the pockets kununnya. Semangat sangat mau bertema bagai.

On our first night in Bangkok, a friend commented on my status in fb insisting me to have pay Terminal 21 a visit. Also the department store (was it Robinson if I'm not mistaken) next to it. Excitedly I told her, I already have the mall in our list. Wajib pigi; as per her. Especially the restroom at each levels. Gitu kan arahan.

So yeah. Tujuan pigi sini memang untuk keluar masuk the restrooms! Boleh jak kan perangai gitu. Demi restroom! Apart from the restroom, I was excited to explore every floors as well. 

Terminal 21 is known for its unique concept & design. It consists of 9 Floor in which each floor is designed after famous cities in the world such as Rome, Paris, Tokyo & San Francisco. 

Land of Ong Bak Day 3 - Lunch at MBK Mall

Assalamualaikum. สวัสดี!

It does take ages for me to update about this trip. Biarlah, bila lagi buat aktiviti melompat² entry kan. Macam jak di-anaktiri trip pi Thailand ni. Walhal I do fell in love with this country. Fine, this is my third time saying the same phrase. 

Sambungan dari entry lepas (here).

CutiCuti: Thailand - Lub'd Hostel Silom, Bangkok

Property: Lub'd Silom, Bangkok

Date:  29 June 2014 (1 night)

Price: 450 Baht/person (~RM 45.00)

Room Type: 8-beds Female Dormitory

Booked via booking.com (non refundable).

Our dorm; Sathorn 2.

The top level (L4) is where all the ladies dorms are located. This level is strictly for women only. 

Natural lighting from the transparent roof. Exercise performed early in the morning, descending the stairs to reach the lobby area. 

Breakfast is not included in the rate. But there's a bar near the reception counter. The guest can buy their breakfast meal at a reasonable price. 

Area to dine or just to mingle around. 

We were pretty tired after our dinner at a restaurant near the hostel & having arrived late in the evening  had decreased our energy more. Hence we decided to called the night off; early. We missed the opportunity to mingle with the other guest as we departed for Hua Hin quite early the next morning as well. Lucky sempat say hi to our fellow dormmates. 

Ruang santai at our dorm. Spacious enough to performed ur prayer here (for Muslim). 

Cerita Bingai: Next to this space is a glass door. We can see the corridor from inside the dorm. When Ms G went to take her bath, I was all alone in the dorm. Imagining stupid things in my head. 
"What if suddenly Ju On enters through the glass door. Or one of those famous Thai ghost muncul from the ceiling?"
Ok bye perangai bongok!

View across our bunk bed. And as usual, the brilliant me didn't take the picture of the whole dorm. *clap clap* 

Bathroom (female). Separated shower & toilet.

Courtesy of the hostel for the guest. Some are donated by the guest. KEEP means "u can use these BUT don't take the compartments with u". Common sense lah kan, ndak kan dengan bekas sekali mau hangkut. Tapi wujud ok orang macam tu.

They provide shampoo & bath foam at each shower room. Memahami jiwa traveller yang malas bawa benda alah ni semua. *pointing all fingers to myself* 

Few halal restaurants nearby the hostel. They're just walking distance away.

1. Deen Restaurant

# My friend Lady Dreamer (here) wrote a review about this restaurant in her blog. Apart from the direction given by her, u can also reach this restaurant by alighting at Chong Nonsi (Silom Line). It closes at 9pm.

2. Indian Vegetarian Restaurant

# We had our dinner here on our first night in Bangkok. My plan to dine at Deen got cancelled as we arrived a bit late that night. We happened to find this restaurant by chance. 

3. Dubai Restaurant

# Located right at the junction heading to the hostel. As it was fasting month when we were there, this restaurant close early. We only came to know about this the next day on our way to Chong Nonsi station.

Overall, I'm quite satisfied with this hostel. Checking-in & checking-out is pretty convenient. No hustle bustle. Friendly staff & they speak good English. Love their concept! If u're planning to go to Bangkok; please go checkout their website (here)  for more information. 

If given the opportunity to go to Bangkok again, I would love to try thier other branches.
