Please forgive me for this long overdue delay in blogging. I have been sick ever since I got back from Bangkok and Hua Hin last week. Have been sleeping early and resting a lot.. doctor's orders. Anyway, I am here now.. being a responsible friend.. telling you a hidden place in Bangkok where it is a MUST to go for YUMMY YUMMY local food!! Cheap too!!

I am very sorry but their name card is in Thai and I can't read Thai....:P You can give them a call for their address and just for your info, not all cab drivers are willing to drive you there. hehe...(they say it's too far)
