EAT . SLEEP . TRAVEL

I bet almost everyone heard of Jenny Bakery, the famous Hong Kong cookies. I have never try it before. But I saw some reviews online, some says that Mr.Rich Bakery's cookies, which is also from Hongkong,  taste similar to Jenny Bakery. Therefore just nice, Mr. Rich Bakery came to Singapore, and since its on Groupon, I purchased it at a discounted price to test whether if it worth the money and queue as my friend.

今年的中秋节我们也试了南益饼家的上海月饼。一次就买了很多盒！哈哈！源發的也有买。从来都不喜欢吃月饼的我深深得爱上了上海月饼！



在右手边的是南益的莲蓉上海月饼，中间颜色比较深的是源發的莲蓉上海月饼。最右手边的是南益的豆沙上海月饼。

吃了这两家我觉得南益的馅料比较滑，也不会太甜，不腻。饼皮偏咸了点，但是他们的饼皮一点都不会干，吃进嘴里，融化在口里！

相比之下，源發的饼皮干了点，饼皮和馅料都偏甜，也有牛奶香。个人比较喜欢源發的饼皮。但是馅料方面比较喜欢不会太甜也不会腻的南益的馅料，而且也很滑。

如果可以用源发的饼皮和南益的馅料那就真的是 perfect 了！哈哈！我在做梦。

Last year when we went to Bangkok for 6D5N from Singapore, it cost us about $300 (Airasia + Silom Boutique Hotel) per person. This year, my friend challenge me to spend less than $300. I DID IT YES YES YES! $295! $5 difference only but still I did it HAHA!


How to grab cheap fares and hotel?

1. STALK STALK STALK. Always stalk the airline promotion and travel at the right time. (Avoid Secondary/Primary School Holiday if you are not travelling with kids).
Our round way trip was $150 per person including 25kg baggage (Jetstar).

2. COMPARE the hotel price and make use of travel site like TripAdvisor/ Expedia/Agoda. You can really get a super affordable and nice hotel at a cheaper price as compare to direct booking from the hotel website.

We book 2 separate resort/hotel. Waterford Sukhumvit 50 ($30 per night and a total of 3 nights) and Lit Bangkok Hotel ($100 per night and a total of 2 nights). If you compare with their own website, the price I got was really way cheaper especially Lit Bangkok Hotel.  The total will be $290! Which means each person just need to pay $145 for a 6D5N stay!

老实说，曼谷地铁站时真的是有点复杂。 可能跟我的方向感有点关系吧哈哈。曼谷有四个主要的地铁线。
1.ARL (Airport Rail Link) - 机场再分成3个地铁线。等下会解释。
2. MRT(Metro Chaloem Ratchamongkhon Line) 蓝色线
3.BTS (Skytrain Silom Line) 深绿色
4.BTS (Skytrain Sukhumvit Line) 浅绿色

Bangkok Train Station Map

在机场你可以选择乘坐3个不同的机场地铁线。- 褐色的线
1. SA City Line
2. Makkasan Express Line
3. Phaya Thai Express Line

Suvarnabhumi Airport Express-Makkasan (Makkasan Express Line): 快捷票

• 可以直接从机场到Makkasan 或者Makkasan到机场 （中间不会停留）
• 只需15分钟
• 来回地铁票: 150 baht (SGD 6.10)
• 单程票: 90 baht (SGD 3.70)

Suvarnabhumi Airport Express - Phaya Thai (Phaya Thai Express Line): 快捷票

• 直接从机场到Phaya Thai或者从Phaya Thai到机场 (中间不会停留)
• 只需17分钟
• 来回地铁票: 150 baht
• 单程票: 90 baht

SA City Line:（普通票）

• 从机场到最后一站Phaya Thai中间都会停在不同的站（请看褐色线）
• 从第一站到最后一站的车程: 30mins
• 最贵票价会到: 45 baht (SGD 1.90)

我会觉得复杂是因为要换成其他地铁线时我们必须打卡出来在打卡进去另一条地铁线。不像新加坡，不许打卡出来就可以换很多不同的地铁线。

比如说：从 Suvarnabhumi Airport Station (ARL) 到 Siam BTS station，你得先到 Phaya Thai station (ARL)，然后打卡出去，再走到Phaya Thai BTS line，重新买票后再打卡进去乘搭地铁到 Siam BTS。

一开始也有点乱哈哈。因为明明是同样的名字Phaya Thai，却因为一个是 ARL 和另一个是 BTS，所以需要买不同的票，这两站地中间也有一小段的距离（需要走差不多5-6分钟)。 不过不用担心，在每个转换站都会有标识教你怎么走。

每趟追高的地铁费用是45Baht。从 Suvarnabhumi Airport 到 Phaya Thai 一个人需要45baht（SGD1.90）。从Suvarnabhumi Airport 到 Makkansan station 一个人需要35baht（SGD1.50)。从Siam BTS (Siam paragon/Siam Center) 到 Mo Chit BTS (Chatuchak weekend market)，一个人是42baht（SGD1.70）。

如果你们想要买一天无限次乘搭地铁的地铁卡，你需要注意，MRT 的卡只能用于MRT的地铁站，而BTS的卡只能用于BTS Silom 和 BTS Sukhumvit的地铁站。我个人觉得，如果一天以内你需要乘搭MRT和BTS，买一天的票有一点不划算。

一天MRT无限次的票是120baht（SGD4.90）.而BTS的是130baht（SGD5.30). MRT 也有3天无限次的票，一张票价是230baht（SGD9.30)。BTS据我所知，应该，好像是没有3天的票。根据我的经验，我一天不会花超过130baht的地铁费用（包括转线或有时候只有BTS）。所以我都不会买一天无限次的票。
