Anyway, mummy and daddy came over on 20 Oct night. Picked them up from the airport as many taxi drivers do not really know where the apartment is.
2nd day - brought daddy and mummy downstairs to take a look at the roadside stalls, and they bought some breakfast for themselves. Made an appointment for them to go for aromatheraphy massage just opposite the apartment. After which, met them for lunch. Brought them on a song thel and headed to soi Saint Louis for stewed pork.
Daddy loves the stewed pork with rice, even 'Halal' mummy likes it too. After lunch, we walked along the street and bought some snacks. After which bought them the nice Iced Latte which costs only about SGD1.10. Cheap and good! I hopped on a Song Thel to go back to work and they got onto a cab to MBK.
After work, met them at MBK and went to Chinatown for dinner. Introduced dad to their Ice Lemon Tea and both daddy & mummy loves it!
3rd day - the morning routine fairly remains the same. Lunch was at the stewed pork place again. Yes! That's how much daddy loves it! Brought them to a market (Lalaisap) that sells clothes as well as food. Left them there to shop on their own and told them after they finished shopping here, to hop on a cab to Platinum Mall. I cabbed back to office.
Met them at Platinum Mall after work and went to Central World for Lee Cafe (the tom yum soup is to die for) and brought them to Sizzler (Wednesday night special THB199). Headed back to the apartment to rest after that.
4th day - I was on home leave. Went for a massage with them early in the morning. We then headed to 'Hongkong Noodle' (the restaurant's name which is located opposite Siam Paragon) for brunch. Daddy loves the Fish Maw soup and had 2 bowls for himself, as well as a plate roasted duck drum with rice. Mummy and I had their jumbo wantan mee with duck meat, char siew and crab meat. Then, we walked to pray Si Mian Fo, just opposite Central World. It was a long walk, lucky daddy and mummy did not complain. After the prayers, we headed to comb the streets opposite Central World and then to Platinum Mall. This time round, we wanted to get car accessories - the head gear, seat cover, steering wheel cover etc. as well as imitation Birkenstock slippers. Late lunch was at Yayoi which serves cheap and good Japanese food, and back to Lee Cafe for Tom Yum soup and Mango with Sticky Rice. After which, cabbed to MBK cos' they wanted to buy dried goodies back.
Managed to MTM mum's evening gown for my wedding dinner at the same place I did my ROM short gown. Without us knowing, it was almost time for dinner. Dad didn't know what to eat, so he said he wanted to eat at Sizzler's again. So we cabbed back to Central World for Sizzler. After dinner, we went back to the apartment to rest our tired feet. And to wait for hubby's arrival!
5th day - As per every morning, daddy and mummy went for their massage, as it's their last day here in BKK. Darling & I waited for their return and we brought darling for the stewed pork rice. Daddy wanted to buy the fried pork back to SG, but they were sold out already. Oww... too bad! But he kept reminding me to buy it back for him when I go back to SG. After lunch, cabbed to MBK again. Mummy has not gotten her jeans. Went there and shopped for about 2 hrs, and headed to 'Hongkong noodle' for daddy's favourite fish maw soup! Lastly, cabbed back to apartment to get ready to send them to the airport.
Darling and I sent them to the airport and we cabbed back to the apartment as he wanted me to cook dinner for him. Alrighty! First meal I cook for him as his wife! Passed! Haha... He won't dare to say fail la, else next time I won't cook for him le. Rested early as we both were tired. We slept on the floor the night before and thus, both of us did not sleep well.
6th day - after breakfast, we headed out... Shopped a bit. Lunch at Yayoi, rested our feet.
Mr & Mrs Lim...

The ever-loving hubby~
Chilled a bit at Coffee Beans by Dao... We were there for 2 hours plus I think. Tired from all the walking...
Queued for 1.5hrs to enter this restaurant - Shabushi - they serve steamboat with ingredients on conveyor belt. It's a buffet and it cost only about $10 per pax. However, each person is only entitled to 1 hr 15mins to eat.
Finally got in... Famished!7th day - Sunday!
It was R&R day... we did not go out. But hubby still woke up very early. Think he's not used to sleeping here. Then we took a nap again at about 11am. I woke up at 1pm and whipped up a lunch for him. He was so touched!
Our very sumptuous lunch!Later in the evening, we were supposed to go for dinner on cruise which was booked earlier. The person picked us up from our apartment at 6pm. Reached quite early, registered, paid and walked around. They had an art exhibition going on:
One of my favourite painting!
Another of my favourite!Time to board the cruise!
