Travel: Thailand Myanmar Laos

Hello people!! Welcome back! I'll be sharing some pictures I took during my trip to Thailand recently! You might be wondering why is Myanmar and Laos in the title too right? That's because those two countries were very near Thailand so we might as well go there as well! Hehehe~ And this post will not be as detailed as my Japan Trip (promise, part 2 coming soon) because there's not as much interesting things to talk about! Oops...

The famous photo tree in T1! ^^

I love plane foods! 

With my waipo and ahma~~ 

Doi Suthep Temple

(sorry to say)But i feel that the monk here abit unreal... Cuz we let the monk pray for us but the monk use international language and not Thai! Got 恭喜发财，万事如意，everyday happy happy etc...

Fresh strawberriesssss <3 at Meo Hill Tribe

Okay, so this is opium fruits (鸦片果). You see that yellowish sep/latex on the fruit? That's opium in it's most basic form! Although opium is a type of drug, it can be made into Heroin too (aka 麻醉药 anaesthetic that doctors use)

A very pretty flower like green leaves!

The scenery of the whole flower garden~~

For my Facebook friends, you might already saw this before! Hahaha This is a dress i made from the welcome flower ring they gave in the airport! I used whatever i can find in the hotel and stuff!

Handmade soap! Ain't they pretty?

This pink lotus is my favourite! So delicate looking~

Khantoke Dinner with Hill Tribe Show

Super chio dancer! Even more chio real life! (ermm... Hope i don't sound pervert)

Bamboo Boat!! SO COOL RITE! Its those we always see in Chinese 古装 drama!

Elephant poop so smelly.... yucks! I've been to so many elephant farm/villages, this is the smelliest...

SELFIE W ELEPHANT!!!

This is the only place I'm interested in seeing during my trip actually... (other than shopping in platunam of course! haha) 

I walked around the whole village and this lady is the prettiest with the longest neck! HAHAH

Their classroom! And the words on the board is their own language~~ 

If my memory did not fail me, this lady is from miaozu village 苗族村

How can i not take a selfie with this lady here?

We also went to see handmade + hand paint umbrellas!

PRETTY!! I'm gonna try to copy paint a elephant painting they did cuz i think its super pretty!

Act Act Act :/

THIS IS SUPER YUMMY I TELL YOU!! I don't know if its a local delicacy but i had it in the hotel and never seen it anywhere in the streets... Its called Steamed rice flour with coconut milk! LOVE IT

 Next up, Wat Rong Khun - White Temple

THIS ''GOLDEN TOILET'' I FEEL DAMN CHEATED LORH!! So i was told that this place have a golden toilet and its super pretty. And i imagined it to have golden coloured toilet bowl and basin. But the toilet inside is normal until cannot normal. Only the outside is golden in colour... Zzz

A very impressive ornate white stucco work temple made and designed by a famous Thai artist, Chalermchai Kositpipat.

Although its super pretty, but we're not allowed to touch anything here... except the floor maybe.. HAHA cuz we need to step on it right? We got nothing to do here other than taking picture of the exterior as photos were not allowed inside. (rules are rules are rules)

Because Myanmar is so close to Chiangrai, Thailand, we only need to walk over! Just like Singapore and Malaysia ya?

This is the exact replica of Shwedagon Pagoda in Naypyidan but 10 times smaller. Hahaha Because many tourist don't get to see the real one, their government made a replica near the border of Myanmar! Hehe

Tourist shot.

The view of Myanmar~~

For Laos, we have to take a small boat over to reach there1

The boat behind is the type we took!

This is Laos snake whisky. Hahaha For mens one...

Food Review: Shop Wonderland Cafe

SUP guys! Its has been a long time since our last update before we went MIA right? Super super super sorry about it because both of us are busy preparing for our up coming O's and N's level which explain the reason why we are not updating after so long. And today we are back again with a new blogpost so let not wait and get started! ^^

As you guys know, Haji Lane is a hipster street filled with lots of fashionable clothing shops and accessories. But in recent years, more and more cafes are appearing in that area too which caught our attention! *grin* 

During our trip there, we went to try out Shop Wonderland Cafe which is mixture of a cafe *The pantry* on level 1 and a shop/workshop area on level 2 where you can shop there and eat there well you like. It is also a very pretty style cafe with a bit of vintage kind of look, we're sure that you guys will surely notice this cute eye-catching cafe while shopping in that area. ^^

Look at those cute pineapples! *.*

Also Shop Wonderland Cafe got their cakes from Maple and Market CLICK HERE ( which we blogged about it previously, click on the link to read it! :D) and pastries from carpenter and cook. Hence in just one location you can get to try the food from 2 different cafes.

Green Banana Cake
Price: $7.60

This is our favorite cake! It is not too sweet nor has strong taste of the banana. It tasted really light and fluffy which make us want to eat another one!! Hahaha XD Many people bought this cake when they visited the cafe so we strongly recommend you to try it too! You may think that $7.60 for a piece of cake is abit over priced but we double confirm plus crop that you will love it just like us! haha :D

Rating: 9/10

Iced Chocolate and Iced Mocha
Price: $7.60

Both of us think that the iced chocolate is still okay but sadly there is nothing special about it, it just taste like normal chocolate drink that we can have outside and it is not really worth the price too. :( As for the iced mocha both of us think it is not really to our liking because it is really bitter even though we mixed it with the ice-cream it came with, so we don't really recommend you guys to try it if you're not a fan of bitter drinks. ^^

Rating 5/10

Rose Cake 
Price: $7.60

The rose cake itself taste rather normal pretty much not from what we expected it to be as we thought it will have some rose taste but nahhh... We didn't get to taste any of the rose flavor instead is tasted abit sour... *sour face* and it make our throat really uncomfortable (for us). In conclusion, not fan of sour = don't order :) *but we really don't recommend it*

Rating: 6/10

Red Velvet Cake
Price: $7.60

This Red Velvet Cake taste not too bad, it is very moist and not too sweet. Together with the cream cheese, it taste just right for us. You sure won't get sick of it after a few bites. What both of us like about this is that the cream is very smooth and silky!! Most importantly, MOIST CAKE = GOOD CAKE. We do recommend you guys to try this too! :D

Rating: 8/10

Overview: In a nut shell, both of us still think Shop Wonderland Cafe is still a worthy place to go. Firstly, you can shop at their shop at level 2 before you eat or after you eat. Secondly, even though the price stated for the cakes and drinks are pretty expensive but what can we said, this shop consist of foods from different cafe which save your time from traveling! *thats killing 2 bird with 1 stone* :D Lastly to double combo, the cafe have free wifi too (yesh we said it FREE WIFI) where both of us think that you can go there to do project with your friends, small gathering/meet ups or to grab a small bite when you get tired shopping ^^

Food Review: Cottage Pies Cafe

Yo whatupss guys! We are finally back with another new blogpost :D Do you guys here like pastries alot like we do? If you do then you will super love this place we are going to write about ^^ So lets not wait and get started~~
(EXTRA: After this we going write and tell you guys about our failed trip hunting for "Singapore's Blooms"haha XD)

Cottage Pies Cafe is a cute little styled cottage theme cafe that is located at White Sand Shopping Mall at Pasir Ris, not only is it designed in a cottage theme it is also somehow vintage and most of the furniture there are made of wood which make the appearance of the cafe super pretty and also talking about their foods, it's also nice overall and at a super affordable price!! XD

Yes, you see it, isn't the price affordable? 

We ordered Chicken Mushroom Pie, Potato Chicken Pie, Banana Roll and Oreo Premium Cheese Cake which we will go into detail in abit! :D

Chicken Mushroom Pie
Price: $2

Note: The square one is Chicken Mushroom Pie!

Both of us liked this one alot because it is really really tasty. The pastry is very flaky with a buttery taste. It is just prefect, and the filling inside is very pleasant too! With the price of $2, this is totally worth it~  (Both of us highly recommend you guys to try this when visit here, must uh! <3)

Rating:8.5/10

 

Chicken Potato Pie

Price: $2

This pie consist of creamy mash potato, chicken bites, small cubes of carrot and peas. The pie together with the filling itself is not really salty and with the hint of pepper taste. Both of us think it is really tasty and nice. (We do suggest you guys to share this with your friend if you are not really a fan of potato like us because both of us think if you eat this alone, after awhile you will have a feeling of "don't want to eat it already de feeling la" just what we think~~ haha XD)

Rating: 7.5/10

Banana Roll 

Price: $1

Ordered this banana roll because we tot it is really cool, we mean where can you find banana that come with flaky pie right, so we decided to tried it! But it taste weird... (the banana does not taste like those in goreng pisang) :(


Rating: 4.5/10

Oreo Perineum Cheese Cake

Price: $3.90

Last but not least, some dessert *woohooo* we ordered this dessert that is not love at first sight because of it appearance. But still not bad luh~ HAHA What do you expect for a $3.90 cake? However, both of us didn't like the fact that bottom part the cake is not biscuit but it just cheese cake with more cocoa powder. Overall is good though! (cannot expect starbuck standard marh~ *best cheesecake there* haha :))

Rating: 6.5/10

Overview: Overall we both think this is a place when you can go have tea break, meeting with friends or just grab some snacks with their yummy pastries when you pass by. Quite affordable price they have there. XD Also their good services because when both of us was given the wrong order we want, they changed for us without saying a word and even apologizes to us and refund us the money we paid extra. (As for us, we know of some shop that wouldn't do that :/)

SO its time for our failed trip hunting for "Singapore blooms" story hahaha XD

As you guys know or heard people saying that Singapore flowers started to blooms and we also saw other instagram-ers posting about it so both of us wanted to check it out and bang we did it! Hahaha

The place we visited is at Pasir Ris Park and I guess both of us didn't have the luck to see it cause when we reach, most of the flower have fallen or gone or rotten and only have a few fallen on the ground which still have colour on it.... (WHY OH WHY? :(() so we guess we are pretty unlucky. But we still took some pretty shot with those flower which have just bloomed. Those shot come with prizes of 20plus insects bites on our legss (OMG *SCREAMING EMOJI* INSERTED)

So here is the end product TADAHH:

Those are not the flowers we want.... :(

 Some picture taken near the beach too~~

Afterall we will pretty disappointed and sad that Singapore's bloom only lasted for a week and we didn't get to see those beautiful flower, so we must said lesson learned during this trip : GO IMMIDIATELY!

Okay, we have come to the end of our blogpost! ^^ Hope you guys have a great weekend ahead! Also Thank you to those who read our blog and those who just started reading!:D Until then see you in the next post! Happy Easter yo!! (BYE, WAVE AND BOW *^^*)
