an evening at Bangkok Black Canyon Coffee

I am a coffee lover so visiting Black Canyon Coffee at Bangkok is a must!! After check in, I went to one of Black Canyon Coffee branch inside Indra Mall. I'm going together with Riverbird (just finished from work). He is die hard fan of coffee too.

Black Canyon Coffee is a very successful, homegrown chain of coffee houses that was established in 1993 and become one of Thailand's most popular restaurant chains, and serves more than just coffee. Black Canyon Coffee has many branches throughout Bangkok and all over south-east Asia including Malaysia too. Black Canyon also has an extensive food menu from sandwiches and salads to steaks, soups and stir fries and also an extensive section of the menu devoted to Thai dishes.

List of the "Black Canyon specialty" items on the menu

riverbird order "Black Canyon Iced Coffee"

Black Canyon Iced Coffee make from milk mixed with the old "Black Devil" and poured into glasses over crushed ice. What special about this iced coffee is a two-straw drink, something to be shared with your sweet heart or with your favorite group of yuppies. But weird... Riverbird seem finished it all alone without share it with me....

Boiyoke Boutique Hotel, Pratunam Bangkok

Okay, gonna blogged about where I'm staying during my Bangkok trip.

Before check out from Nawarat Hotel
Bye~~~

As what I mention before, I'm moving out from Nawarat Hotel to Boiyoke Boutique Hotel that centrally located right in the heart of Pratunam shopping area and surrounded by daily night markets that sell from souvenirs, clothes, foods, watches and etc. Very convenient location for the shoppers and easy walking distance to BTS Sky Train (around 10 mins) at Phayathai Station to major shopping centres, Siam Square, Siam Paragon, MBK Center and Pantip Plaza. I'm going to stay here for 3days 1 night. Yippee....

I booked the room 2 days before I'm leaving to Bangkok through PYO Travel. Highly recommended to book through here because the price are much more cheaper and the service is fast and good. I got my superior room with breakfast for RM131 per night. Total for 2 nights, RM262.00, which is within my budget. :)

Welcome to Boiyoke Boutique Hotel!!!

Map to Boiyoke Boutique in Thai

Boiyoke Boutique Hotel
Address: 120/359 Rajprarop Rd.
Thanon-Phayathai, Rajthevee,
Bangkok 10400

For taxi tel: 02 251 8255 -8

Remember to print out the map to the hotel location in Thai language so that you wont get lost... but no worry, although Boiyoke Boutique tucked right behind the more popular Baiyoke Sky, it was alright considering the cheap cost of stay. Seems like all taxi drivers know the location of the hotel. Location was fantastic and I would recommend this hotel for any budget traveler.

I'll definitely book a room with Baiyoke Boutique again when I come back to Thailand :)
