Antipodean Cafe

Benbi knew that I'm a big breakfast lover. 

He brought me to this Cafe to surprise me with their signature big breakfast. 

You are so lovely and warm. I love you. =')

===============================================

This is my second time went there for my big breakfast.
Their big breakfast still very nice.
Nice food and lovely person really make my day !! =D

===============================================

8 March 2014

This is my first dining experience at there...

Benbi was ordered a Big Breakfast with Bacon.
Yummy !!! The grill mushroom is really juicy and tasty !!




This is my breakfast, All Day Breakfast with Pork Sausage.
I prefer the Big Breakfast more than this one. All Day Breakfast is just too normal for me.




Once in a while.... Good Food time !! =)






===============================================

5 April 2014

He brought me there for second time, he wanna surprise me again with my favorite food as he told me. Melting ~~ =')

I didn't order their All Day Breakfast anymore at this time but I ordered Big Breakfast with Pork Sausage. The scramble egg is so smooth and the mushroom is very juicy biting. The Hash Brown, the Wholemeal Bread and the Pork Sausage are really a good combination between each other. It is just awesome and delicious !! ^-^




This time we brought Colin together, he ordered Hot Cappuccino for himself.

Benbi was ordered Chocolate Milkshake for his drink.




And, I ordered a Hot Chocolate for myself. Hek ~




Their cafe is always so crowded during the weekend. Peoples are willing to wait. Peoples in the queue list are quite fast to be called and seated. The staffs and the bosses are so friendly.

It is really a good dining experience at there. =)

Overall Rating:

Service : 7/10 

(Their staff are really well trained and their service is not bad.)

Food : 8/10 

(It is a nice place to kick start your lovely day especially during the weekend with their tasty big breakfast.) 

Drink : 6/10 

(It is normal for me and nothing special.)

Environment : 6/10

(The environment is nice. I love their menu display. Just one thing I dislike is the table gap is too near to another nearby table, I feel lack of private space for couple.)

Cleanliness : 5/10 (Cutlery)

(I'm very particular person in those cutlery cleanliness at the dining cafe or restaurant.)

The entrance fee for Wat Pho is 100 Baht per pax. 

Sleeping Buddha in Wat Pho. My phone camera couldn't capture the wide angle for the whole body of sleeping Buddha. 

Next, Sa brought us to Wat Arun. 

We took the Ferry to cross over the Chao Phraya River to witness the inner beauty of the Wat Arun. 

The entrance fee to enter the Wat Arun is 50 Baht per person. 

Wat Arun Rajwararam also known as The Temple of Dawn, it has been the Royal Temple dedicated to the seconf reign of Chakkri Dynasty. I was so happy to witness the most elegant pagoda which is the famous landmark of Thailand which is located on the west bank of Chao Phraya River.   

Dinner Time !! 

Sa recommended us to have dinner in the Chao Phraya Princess Cruise. 

This is also one of the famous activity which is strongly recommended by Sa. 

It is so romantic to have the cruise dinner with the one you love. =)

I felt so blissful and happy when being loved by someone important. =D

=======================================================

Third day of the trip ~~~ 

The whole day shopping and hunting cheap stuffs.... 

We bought the local food in Pratinum Mall and we dined in McThai. 

Benbi wanna try his favorite fried chicken (Ayam Goreng McD).  

Then, we went to Asiatique. =D

We took their public transport eg. BTS and Shuttle Boat to the targeted location. 

The environment is so nice. 

One of the pretty landmark in Bangkok. =)

Dinner time ~ 

Someone was sneakily bought his toy during we girls were stuck inside the Naraya shop. Haha !! 

=======================================================

Fourth Day of the trip ~~~~ 

According our plan, we went to visit the Chatuchak Market. 

Forgot was sick and she couldn't follow us to the market. =(

Four of us took the Cab to the market. 

The market is so big and we spent almost the whole day to shop over there. 

I didn't capture the look of the market because I was too busy to hunt the favorite stuff at the market. 

Hehe... *Blush*

At night, we went to eat the Japanese Food as our dinner. 

After dinner, we went to shop a while around the town and heading back to the Berkeley Hotel.

The mini gathering session in my hotel room right after the Thai Massage. 

I love their Croissant Bun ~ Yummy Yummy !!  

=======================================================

The last day of the trip.... 

Awww so fast !! =(

We checked out from the Berkeley Hotel in the early morning and heading to the airport to go back to Malaysia. 

I found out a lot of different type of pie (Eg : HamEgg Pie and Taro Ginkgo Pie) in McThai which is not selling in those branches in Malaysia. Ho Ho !! 

Time flies, we were back to Malaysia ~ =(

A little snack in KL Central while we were waiting for Colin to come over to fetch us from his workplace. Many thanks to Colin !! =D

The stuffs which I bought in Bangkok. Ngek Ngek ~ =P

Sadly, I didn't get to try the Mango Sticky Rice in Bangkok because I thought it can be find so easily in any Bangkok street. So I postponed the Mango Sticky Rice eating plan and proceed with my shopping plan.

This is totally a wrong mindset when I really want to buy it but none of them is selling it during the last minute. Sigh ~ 

Overall, it is a very nice trip and I enjoyed throughout the trip. =D

My Valentine, Day. 我的情人，节。

Good bye Medan !!! =)

I'm very happy and so enjoyed for this trip, I wish I can go for another trip like this in the future !! By the way I love their time difference during my trip in Indonesia because I felt the trip is slower than usual. The time in Indonesia is one hour earlier if compared to the time in Malaysia. Hehe... 

Once again, thanks to the organizer !! Louu you... =D
