Hua Hin Train Station @ Hua Hin, Thailand

DSC_2393

When you are travelling in Hua Hin, Thailand, you will find a lot of this sign standing along the road. No matter where you go, you will find this; along the road, or in the postcard, or even made as souvenirs (just like the small tiny one behind this large sign)


Wonder Why?


One of the famous attractions in Hua Hin is the railway station and it is actually the sign of train station in Hua Hin.

Here you go, a new fine dining place 


Upper Deck is located right above Tanzini; overlooking the magnificent view of KL; featuring the unique seasonal menu that changes every 2 weeks resulted from the creative energies between executive chef, Johnny Fua and Upper Deck sous chef, Alven Tan.


Thanks to an invitation from Goldis Berhad and Gladys, together with a few other bloggers, we were invited to fine dine in Upper Deck and we had a chance to indulge the luxurious six course dinner on that evening.

The Bridge over River Kwai @ Kanchanaburi City

Feel free to view my previous write up on Kanchanaburi Town
And for trip summary, please view HERE

DSC_1986

The greatest attractions in Kanchanaburi are the historical bridge over the River Kwai and the death railway. The railways connects Thailand and Burma; built by the empire of Japan during the World War 2. Forced labour - Asian labours and allied prisoner of war (POWs) were used in its construction. Almost half of the prisoners worked in this project died from disease, maltreatment and accident. 


It is even filmed as The Bridge on the River Kwai where it borrows the construction of the Burma Railway in 1942-43 for its historical settings.


Here, I am going to share up some photos I have taken during my visit to the River Kwai. :)

Chee Cheong Fun @ Restoran You Lee, Taman Connaught, Cheras

Besides the Dai Be Steamed Fish that is located inside the You Lee Kopitiam, there is another good stuff to try out - the chee cheong fun from the stall that tucked in one corner end in this kopitiam 

ccf stall

This stall owner (the uncle) is very patience in preparing every plates of chee cheong fun. He will flip open the chee cheong fun and lay them flat; then add a little sesame oil and chop them horizontally to create the kuey teow-liked noodles. Finally top it with the sauce and garnish with the fragrant toasted white sesame. 

ccf with chilli sauce and sweet sauce

White silky smooth chee cheong fan drenched with homemade black sweet sauce (tim zheong) and home-grinded chilli sauce. Toss-toss everything together to create a well balanced flavour in every strand of chee cheong funI find their CCF is quite addictive and will have it at least once a week for breakfast or lunch. Slurrrp Slurrrp... 

ccf with chilli sauce and soy sauce

If you don't fancy tim zheong, you can try this version of chee cheong fun which is drizzled with chilli sauce and soy sauce. Not to forget the pickled green chilli that go great with the chee cheong fun, this plate of CCF is something my mum loves.
