Krabi and Phi Phi Delights (31 July - 2 Aug, 2009)

Image
Just want to share some food shots from my Krabi trip. Nothing extraordinary for those who have been to any Thailand cities or towns. I mean, You can find about the same in any part of Thailand but nevertheless, it is such a delight for me to savour this goodies in Krabi... from the sidewalk food stall to the tourist class restaurant to the al fresco thai dining eateries. Well, enjoy... these are what I discovered in my short holiday in Krabi and Phi Phi Island... Krabi Day 1 Street food... as greasy as they come. This is the Thai version of roti canai (for my fellow Malaysians) or prata (for my Singaporean friends). Sorry, more like roti telur (bread with egg) with dollops of butter inside. Served with a drizzle of condensed milk and sprinkle of sugar... rolled into a cigar with a piece of yesterday's newspaper. Yes, isn't that interesting... peel the paper and munch like you are having a crepe or popiah.... Hmmm go figure. Next stop, was to try the oyster omelet

Red Ginger Chic Resort in Krabi

Welcome to my new series on boutique hotels around the region. These are some pictures taken at the Red Ginger Chic Resort in Krabi. I stayed in the "Clubhouse" room, which is really a loft. Spacious. I really like the day bed in place of the conventional sofa settee. Really nice for afternoon naps or even card games with friends. Nice view of the pool. Service is great. Not a big resort, so you can be assured of peace and tranquility. 5-10 minutes walk to the night market and also to the seafood restaurants. For more details on pricing and booking, please look up the website. http://www.redgingerkrabi.com/
