Poor cousin to rtks' palatial digs. Amari Residences (boutiquish apartment style), end soi 2 suk. Too near for comfort to NEP:p 55sqm, including a washer/dryer and pantry. With mini balcony for oxygen break:o Apologies, lousy pic quality, iPad camera

Hazard is more a matter of deduction than sight..

KYP, only hazard's my doing last night at long beer german (thai nick for TWD):o

Joetys, yes ..took me better part of 1.3hrs from sanambin to suk 2. Pay toll thb75 to suffer. If not for barang2 luggage, shd have done express airport train to Makassan (but think you got to leg it to main road kns, from my last outing)

Traffic is maddening isn't it? esp. at the tollway exit for Ploenchit South that comes out at Suk 2.
I think no need for express airport train to Makassan, normal train is good enough. At Makassan station, you can then change to the MRT Petchburi (walk 10 minutes gate to gate) but difficult with luggage to go through MRT and then the BTS. If you want to taxi it, no need to walk, taxi stand available at Makassan.

Room looks very nice indeed. Suk 2 is quiet - I wouldn't consider it too close to NEP. I lived at the JW for a month in the past.

Think this one you have to try Golden Mile but first, you must overcome the 'strong' smell from this shopping centre. But I think most Thai restuarants will serve "YAM WOON SEN" means Tang Hoon.

If you are into Mango, then it will become "SOM TAM". Beware of this one, as there are many versions. The most hardcore version is Som Tam Plu Pla La (Papaya salad with crabs and fermented fish sauce), which even local Thais also cannot take this but have since became my favorite salad to go with whisky.

Thanks for the pictures and recommendations.
Like spicy and sour, but no fermented stuff for me..................

PRC FT spotted in Sin City.

Went past third road earlier and spotted a 云南小吃. This one confirm PRC joint. Front of shop not much difference from those found in GL PRC food outlets.

Think I regret not asking the technician to move the aircon. knn, now aircon blowing directly on top my head. Think tonight go back sure kena Tao Hong.

Guess what? The flooring company just called and told me the color of the wooden floor I wanted will only be available just before Songkran. And they can only install after Songkran. Don't know it's good news or bad news? Think I should take this as good news and have a good break. But still feel bad cos' renovation not completed.
