Breakfast @ Holiday Inn, Chiang Mai

I have not mentioned where we stayed in Chiang Mai... Did I?

Initially we booked Shangri-La hotel and too bad it's fully booked! Rather disappointing and we were then offered Holiday Inn instead and yea..... we stayed there!

We did not took any photos of the room!! Hhhmmm, it's well kept and clean, just that the lights are too dim.

Our room includes daily breakfast buffet- Our daily kick start!

Feeling refresh after a bath, off we go to Khantoke for dinner!

Khantoke is actually a dining style. The meal is served on a wooden pedestral tray call "Khantoke", and the dishes are all authentic northern Thai delicacies.

Banana fritters were served before meal as appetizer and a bowl of clear chicken soup was served after that. And then a large wooden tray with bowls of Northern Thai delicacies were served.

All of the above are a fixed in a set and can be refill upon request. A simple and appetizing meal.

While enjoying our meal, there are performances of Thai classical dance and music. After the meal, sweet crispy rice and choice of coffee and tea will be served. There will be 9 dances and shows perform daily. Be entertained!

Due to time constraints and tiredness, we left after a few shows, the tour guide send the other family to the night market then us to our hotel as 2 of us ain't feeling well.

Thanks to our tour guide Xiao Yang, he sent us to the hospital opposite our hotel and helped us out.

Next day will be more interesting!

Thai Style Curry Laksa @ Chiang Mai

We were all hungry upon our arrival at Chiang Mai around 2.30 pm (Malaysian Time). While we were on our way to Royal Flora Ratchaphruek, we stopped by a simple lunch.

A quick snap. I can't read Thai- We stopped here for lunch!

Thai Curry Noodles served with preserved vegetable and onions and chicken drumstick. Thick curry gravy and tender chicken. Good but a lil' small in portion or probably I am big eater?

And our journey of the day begins......
