After You Dessert Cafe @ Bangkok Thailand

So, I decided to make a post about the dessert I had in Bangkok.
Since I said I will revisit After You Dessert Cafe again after my first visit, so here comes the second visit.
Just in case you never heard of it before, After You Dessert Cafe is one high-rated cafe to visit in Bangkok; if you searched on google, you will find lots of reviews about it.
It has been around since 2007, and now has expanded to 16 outlets at different locations in Bangkok.
Do check out which outlets near to you when you are in Bangkok, because their desserts can drive you crazy! #hehe





It's my second time visited the outlet at the Central World Plaza.
I wish to visit the outlet at Siam Square on my next visit as I know that branch is much bigger.
The cafe is located at 1st floor, inside the Central World Plaza.
It's very easy to get to the cafe, as long as you go to the cinema area since it locates just right opposite the cinema.
The very eye-catching corner shop gives you a comfortable homie feeling, and I truly adore with the creative interior and atmosphere.



The dessert cafe mainly selling harajuku toast, pancake, kakigori (ice-shaved), biscuits, cakes and coffee.
Normally, people come for their harajuku toast, pancake and kakigori.



I am a big fans of chocolate, so I ordered the Ferrero Toast @ THB195 (small), which is a shibuya toast combined with Ferrero Rocher chocolate, vanilla ice-cream with fresh cream.
It's my second time having the same toast, well it's just too good to have it again and again!
The toast has divided into small cube bite-pieces, so it's easy for sharing.


I also gave a try on their Hazelnut Pancake with Nutella Sauce @ THB175
We chosen this flavour because I always love Nutella, another reason is because Lik like hazelnut. #lol
The pancake itself is soft and fluffy; however it would be good to add some butter because sometimes the pancake can be a bit too dry with just Nutella itself.




I have no idea what to order for kakigori, so I go with the first item showing on the menu, Milo Volcao Kakigori @ THB215.
The kakigori shaved like snow, till it's so fine; and the top is drenched with Milo and Horlicks powders.
Besides, the chewy cake and crunchy biscuit that hide inside the ice shaving are the best kick of this sweet dessert!


It's not cheap at all for having dessert at total THB585, which is about RM70 due to the current exchange rate.
But I think it's worth a try, for sure with all the sinful desserts at After You Dessert Cafe!
However, if you have a group of people to go with you, that's the best because you can try and taste different desserts.
Anyway, if you are interested to read my first review about this cafe, you can check it out at here.


Last but not least, say Hi to David from Melbourne!

Happy Beautiful Year @ Watsons Malaysia

It's already the second week of 2017.
Chinese New Year is coming in 2 weeks time, are you guys ready for the celebration?
I am actually quite excited about it because I will spend my first Chinese New Year with Lik and his family in Thailand. #hehe
It will be a long trip since we are going to travel to few places in Chiang Rai and Chiang Mai. #superexcited
Btw, today I am gonna share with you my first Chinese New Year celebration with Watsons Malaysia at Ruyi and Lyn Restaurant on last Wednesday. :)



Chinese New Year is one of the important campaigns for Watsons Malaysia to celebrate with their customers.
And, this year, Watsons Malaysia kick started the red season with the #happybeautifulyear campaign whereby they want to take this opportunity to send the most beautiful message to all of you!









Aside the good food they served, we also spoiled by the lovely activities such as lucky draws, homemade Chinese Mochi with grounded peanut and Chinese handmade drawing crafts during the campaign launched.





The highlight of the campaign is the song and music video of the "Happy Beautiful Year" which performed by Malaysia's favourite singing duo, Fuying and Sam, along with 20 local and international celebrities, including Amber Chia, Happy Polla from Thailand, Alvin Sinclair, Arja Lee, Arfan Aris, Chui Leng, Leng Sisters (DJ Leng Yein and MC Leng Sean), John Tan, Kit Mah, Nadine Ann Thomas, Nigel Chin, Reem Shahwa, Rubini Sambanthan, Santhawan Boonratana and Wafa de Korte.
It's a happy Chinese New Year song that bring you fun, laughter, humor, and love!



Here's the complete music video!
The music video was shot in November 2016 at various locations in Klang Valley.
It's a special video that showcases familiar Malaysian scenes and multi-cultural facts of Malaysia.
That's probably one of the main reason why this video hit half million views within 48 hours since it released on Watsons Malaysia YouTube and Facebook channels.



After the campaign was officially launched, we all joined the traditional "Lou Sang" ceremony!
My first "lou Sang" in 2017! #hehe



Well, Chinese New Year is all about NEW; such as getting new clothes, new shoes, new look and new hairstyle.
For the Watsons VIP members, as long as you spend more than RM80 in a single receipt at Watsons, you will have the chance to dip in the happiness box and grab prizes worth up to RM1,888,888.




Besides, #happybeautifulyear campaign also has other special promotions for you:

I am a huge fan of Markets ever since my first visit, and I have to say Markets is a a wonderful bazaar which always fill with interesting stuffs.
Though I missed the Markets 20 as I need to fly to Sibu to attend my best friend's wedding; well, it's okay because Markets 21 is back for it's 21st installment at The School Jaya One now!



Markets is the biggest two-days lifestyle bazaar in Klang Valley.
It offers old and new quality goods ranging from fashion clothing, hand-crafted items, fashion accessories, food trucks, stage games and also performances.



Till today, Markets has over 80 vendors, and still expanding for more vendors to promote and sell their products at the bazaar.
Just in case you don't know, most of the vendors do not own a shop, or even an online shop, so Markets is definitely a good chance for the shoppers to meet new sellers and also explore new stuffs.







As a shopper, here's what you can expect from Markets 21!

Not only different kind of food stalls, but also many cool food trucks you can get from the bazaar.

Definitely no regret for paying a visit!







#2 Fashion Clothing
You will never know how many fashion clothing stalls are there at the bazaar.
And guess what? The pricing are all very affordable and in good qualities.
Every time I did my shopping at Markets, I usually spent RM100 to get at least 3-4 pieces clothing. #worthdie





#3 Fashion Accessories
Lots of accessories such as bags, hairbands, hair pins, ear rings, necklaces, cellphone covers etc are selling at very good prices too!







#4 Hand-crafted Items
Not only that, Markets always have many hand-crafted items available such as soaps, body lotions, body scrubs, essential oils, beauty products etc.
If you like handmade products, you will definitely love the Markets.

And for this coming Markets 21, you can witness the amazing showcase of talents as The School is going to collaborate with Peanut Butter Studio to have a showdown of dance battle ala-street style.
Besides, you can also stand a chance to win vouchers and merchandises from POP from the buyer vs seller stage challenge which involves bargaining and estimation of how much the goods is value for you.

My Top 10 Food and Drink in Bangkok

Hello world!
Welcome back to my Bangkok post!
Today, I am going to write about my top 10 favourite food and drink in Bangkok.
I have been sharing Thai food and drink every time I went to Bangkok, so this is just another collection from my trip in August.
I hope you all enjoy it!



Ready? Let's start now!



#1 Stewed Pork Knuckle Rice
Everyone must know well for this because you can find it almost every places in Bangkok.
Stewed pork knuckle, served with rice, boiled egg, and dressing with brown sauce.
You can't leave Bangkok without having the pork knuckle rice, because this is the must eat and try food in the city.
Just in case you don't know, I have blogged about this a few times because this is my top favourite food when I travel to Bangkok. #hehe 
If you can't find one, I would recommend the one located at the Platinum Fashion Mall's food court.





#2 Fried Oyster 
Fried Osyter has a very different cooking style like in KL.
The Thai omelette cooks with bean sprouts and cooks till golden brown and crispy.
You can have a choice of prawns, mussels or oysters, or you can also choose to mix them all in your omelette.
Don't forget to eat your omelette with their dipping sauce.



#3 Fish Mau Soup
Some people may not enjoy the taste of the fish mau, but for me the delicious taste is something that I cannot forget.
It is always so cheap to have in Bangkok to restore your collagen. #lol
Well, this is another favourite that I cannot leave without in Bangkok.



#4 Crispy Noodle with Pork
I know about this dish from Lik's Thai aunty.
She is a very good cook, and this is one of the dish she usually cook for us.
I really love it, especially the thick gravy.
You can have the crispy noodle with seafood, however I always prefer the pork in Thailand.
You can add a bit of chili powder and vinegar into the gravy to taste differently from the original one.



#5 Mango Sticky Rice
This is one famous dessert in Bangkok.
There are many places in Bangkok are selling Mango Sticky Rice, no matter it is on the streets, or food courts in major shopping malls.
Don't know why the mango in Thailand is so sweet, juicy and fresh!





#6 Wanton Noodle
This is my 3rd time visiting SabX2 Wanton Noodle restaurant.
If you wanna know more about this restaurant, check out at here.
This restaurant is very famous with it's wanton noodle and it attracts many tourists to be here.
It is a bowl of spring noodle with extremely thin roasted pork and a few dumplings.
It offers small and big bowl; it's not surprise if you order another bowl if you get the small bowl as the portion is really quite small.



#7 Tomyam
Everyday in Bangkok, I have been trying different Tom Yam from many restaurants.
But so far, there still nothing has been on the top of my list.
If you come across any good Tom Yam in Bangkok, do let me know and I am sure I want to try it on my next trip!





#7 Local Ice-Coffee
If you love coffee, Thai local coffee at the street stalls is something you must try!
Well, the main reason I like it very much is because it has a strong coffee smell although it adds with sweetened condensed milk and ice.





#9 Street Noodles
Street food in Bangkok is always convenient, cheap and delicious.
Though the weather is very warm to eat at the road side, but the good food can't really stop you from that.
There are many different kind of noodles to choose, also you can choose if you want it dry or soup with it,
I always have noodle with soup because I like to add condiments to my noodle soup, such as sugar, dried chili powder, ground peanut, vinegar with chili and fish sauce.



#10 Pad Thai
You can get various types of Pad Thai every where in Thailand because it's another famous and signature food in Thailand.
For me, I do not like to eat it with the original taste, whereby I prefer to add a pinch of chili powder and lime juice till it suits to my taste bud.



I know there are still many food, drink and dessert that I did not cover in this post, such as Thai grilled pork skewer, papaya salad, rubies dessert etc; yet if you are interested to get to know more about the other Thai food in Bangkok, you can check out my previous posts which is under the label #Bangkok.
I am sure you will find more interesting stuffs to try in Bangkok from all my collection.
I love to eat in Bangkok, because food there is always very delicious, spicy and sour, and the price usually does not cost a bomb.
Do share with me if you have any good recommendation in Bangkok, I would love to know all for my next trip.
Anyway, thanks for dropping by, see you again on my next Bangkok post - I'll be blogging either a dessert cafe or a Japanese restaurant ya!
