After checking in our hotel we didn’t bother to unpack. We immediately went to the nearest mall to do some window shopping. We walked to nearby Central Chidlom department store.
We weren’t successful with the shopping so we decided to eat instead. It was at least 6 hours since our last meal on the plane. We looked at all the dining options in the seven storey department store and chose the the food court on the 7th floor called FoodLoft.
It was a beautiful, modern and swanky looking food court that had several cuisines to choose from. The only problem was they forbade me to take pictures. Can you believe that? I managed to take these few shots.
These traditional Thai desserts looked yummy but we ended up not buying any after our disastrous meal.
Naturally we wanted to eat Thai food so we chose the stall that cooked the food upon ordering to ensure hot and fresh food. Too bad that was as good as it got. I ordered my favorite Thai dish, Pad Thai and it was one of the most bland and boring noodle dish I’ve ever eaten.

My friends’ choices weren’t good either. Thai food in Manila tasted so much better than these. Our food wasn’t cheap either. The average was 140 baht per person without drinks. They don’t even give free hot water. They grudgingly gave me one cup and said we had to pay for more. Really sosyal huh?

Thankfully the rest of our meals in Bangkok was so much better than this.

Sorry to hear that your meal here was no bueno. I am excited to hear that you’re in BKK though! And I am anxious to see what “good” meals you’ve eaten there!
