Le Normandie restaurant at the Oriental Bangkok

taxi to the legendary Oriental Bangkok.
the lobby, fancy fancy~
ceiling-high centerpiece, fancy fancy~
just being in the lobby, feel like a millionairess.
hallway the Le Normandie restaurant, where the birthday lunch took place.
the oriental monkeys, with good manner.
here we r, overlooking the Chao Phraya River.
The Peninsula Bangkok right across the river.
Le Normandie restaurant is recognized as one of the Traditions & Qualité in the world. The finest french cuisine in Thailand. Menu de Dejeuner, a four-course lunch menu with a very reasonable price, Baht 1,000 per person, about 30usd.
butter with the logo. that's called branding.
cold soup, or cocktail soup u might say.. forget what it's made of, but it was good.
we all had the big prawn as appetiser. yum!
Tuna as main course.
duck as the main course. (personal favorite)
beef as the main course.
dessert trolly.
blueberry cheesecake & apple pie.
sorbet.
Mocha.
Petits fours du Normandie. too full to eat anything by then...
吃飽了走一走. Oritental 的每一個角落都很有味道.
Oriental的渡船. 限房客用.
不愧是世界聞名的旅館,不愧是世界聞名的餐廳, 沒啥好挑剔的. 其實由於吃的是生日午餐,餐廳還又再送我一個生日蛋糕 (不是一片,是一個完整的chocolate cake),但是根本吃不下了,所以只好狠心放棄.

Crepes & Co.

the best creperie in Bangkok might just be an understatement.

這是一家網路上打聽來的店,為了愛吃sweets的sis,本來只是可有可無的行程,到最後竟然演變成這整趟旅行唯一重複去了2次的餐廳.理由只有一個,因為它的東西實在太好吃了!
深藏在狹小的巷子內. 我們是搭BTS到Asok station,按圖索驥找到的.附近有一家似乎頗有名的餐廳, Cabbages & Condoms Restaurant.
小巷子內的庭院,別有風情.
不怕大自然的客人,of course not me,會坐在室外用餐,感覺好像在Bali.
餐廳大門
吧檯
剛好是 Tapas Festival.主打西班牙料理.我們去的時間很對,空空如也.感覺整家餐廳被我們包下來了.
很有異國情調的裝潢,只是我瞄到外面的樹上有壁虎..剉!
很有異國情調的服裝,感覺煮完菜就可以出航了.
來此的食客大多是洋人,如西瓜汁後面的長髮妞,很正,長的很像 Thandie Newton from "Mission Impossible II". anyway, 西瓜汁也很正..
mushroom we love!
fried chicken with blue cheese dipping.
fried calamari.
重頭戲來了! freshly-made warm n crispy crepe with chocolate sauce filling, n whipped cream on top. 我的老天爺,未免也太好吃了吧!
only one word to describe the following action...搶!!
this one, vanilla ice cream wrapped in the freshly-made warm n crispy crepe, with rich chocolate sauce. 看手動得快的哩... 令人滿足的地方.

Metropolitan Bangkok - Cy'an

Breakfast @ cy'an, 很簡潔清爽的設計,配上蔚藍的pool view,胃口大開.
餐具的擺排也討喜
有buffet也有單點的主菜,這樣的早餐精緻多了.
buffet 的 quiche很讚
單點的banana pancake很紮實, Shannon's favorite. 讓人想要唱 Jack Johnson's "Banana Pancakes". bacon, egg, n sausage...continental breakfast不可少的三兄弟
杯盤狼藉之後.
