(⬇︎ภาษาไทยด้านล่าง⬇︎) the Beaten Path, And Into a Historical Valley. It has become our mission of late to spend our weekends exploring our very own native city (born and bred, no less). We have always dreaded Bangkok’s nasty ridiculous traffic that always holds us back from going places like we actually wanted to. But after some successful planning, here we are, getting the most out of each day by grouping together the places that we want to do and do it all in one whole day. So the whole of our last Saturday went like this: morning at this gorgeous Bangkhunprom Palace, lunching at Krua Apsorn, and...

I am not an adventurous eater, so Phnom Penh’s famous street foods are off limits for me. But somehow, when we were in Phnom Penh twice last time, we had such a blast eating away their delicious local foods. As anyone would tell you, Phnom Penh is a capital in rapid transition. From a quick ‘in-and-out’ place where people come in, get their business done, and leave as soon as they can, PNH is becoming a destination on its own. And that I am glad, because I’m kinda fond of the place for its unique charms, and that increasing popularity of the capital is being proven by the increasing numbers of cool places to eat...
(⬇︎ภาษาไทยด้านล่างค่ะ ⬇︎) a writer, I always love good stories. So, when I heard that JW Marriott Phu Quoc is a resort built on a great recital, I was totally sucked in. And I like being sucked in sometimes. 😀 Recently, we were in Phu Quoc – Vietnam’s largest island just off Gulf of Thailand – doing a story for Fah Thai Magazine and we got to stay at this resort built on a concept of being a deserted Lamarck University dated back in 1920s. During those days, if you refer to the actual world’s history lines, you’d know that it was the glorious times the world around. The...
(⬇︎ภาษาไทยด้านล่างค่ะ ⬇︎) royal Khmer cuisine that we had tried at Restaurant Le Royal of Raffles Hotel Le Royal proved that Thai cuisine and Khmer cuisine are in fact siblings. Geographically wise, there’s no surprise there, we share the similar region, hence similar ingredients and in fact eating culture. There are a lot of herbs, mixtures of textures and aromas, strong scent of fish sauce, pounded fresh chilies and aromatic steamed jasmine rice. คนไทยมาเที่ยวเขมรมักจะพูดเหมือนกันว่า...
(⬇︎ภาษาไทยด้านล่างค่ะ ⬇︎) of things can be told just by savouring the taste and beauty this splendid and elegant French menu – the exactly same one that used to be served to Jacqueline Kennedy when she visited Cambodia back in November 1967. She stayed at Raffles Hotel Le Royal where she was treated with a new creative elegant cocktail ‘Femme Fatale‘ and a banquet of haute French cuisine. Now, you can not only stay at the suite that she once stayed, but also enjoy that special signature drink at the Elephant Bar and dine just like her with the hotel’s exquisite ‘Jacqueline...
(⬇︎ภาษาไทยด้านล่างค่ะ ⬇︎) Sunday Brunch at Restaurant Le Royal of Raffles Hotel Le Royal, Phnom Penh is something of a delectable legend. It is a perfect place for cosy gathering or family get-together, definitely worth checking out.
