BANGKOK: The House on Sathorn

My last trip to Bangkok was 7 years ago when my parents and I flew over to choose a bulldog puppy. And the lucky bulldog puppy who happened to be chosen by both the breeder and us is......
if you were to check out my live instagram strip you would know.. Isn't he the cutest thing ever ?!?!

Nick and myself decided on a last minute trip to Bangkok because we were bored. And we got a good deal on Singapore Airlines. And AMEX gave us a wonderful deal to stay in W hotel, Bangkok.
So off we went, booked the tickets 3 days before departure and our 5 days of amazing experience in Bangkok started.

Aiya, cheap things no good, good things no cheap. Our cheap deal to Bangkok were crap timings. We reached bangkok at 8pm and we were to touch down Singapore at 12am. But cannot complaint right, i mean, we are after all paying only $240 per person for Singapore Airlines, round trip.

Anyway, it's my first time staying at Silom area. Previously I stayed at Pathumwan and Sukhumvit. We didn't know if the plane was going to be delayed or how traffic was going to be, so we decided that we were just gonna wing it for dinner on the first night.

By the time we finished checking into W and doing abit of camwhoring ( btw, I love the vibe at W. The aesthetics were amazing and I absolutely adored these 2 huge muay thai boxing gloves) , it was 8pm.

Quite tired after the flight so we decided to eat at The House on Sathorn which is part of W dining. It is a colonial mansion and Thai national heritage home in the heart of Bangkok built in 1889. 

Only later did I discover that it has been making the list for Asia Top 50 Restaurant over the last few years. Their most recent 2018 ranking is #43. 

The conversion rate for SGD To Baht is $1: 23.5 baht

A picture of the menu - it's was a romantic night with minimal lighting hahaha I suggest you go online and check their menu out. 

Started off with some bread - free

Crispy squid with tom yum mayonaise 400baht

Yellow Fin tuna cerviche 450baht

stir fried massaman lamb chop, hot basil, long bean, coconut served with steamed rice- 1200 baht

I don't usually eat lamb, but this was really yummy!

crispy duck leg, fermented black bean soy, dried shitake, kailan served with steamed rice - 850baht

i highly enjoyed this duck as well. 

Jumbo tiger prawn salad 550baht

We skipped dessert because obviously we ordered quite a bit and we were so full! But we did make use of how 1 for 1 cocktail voucher from W. We had what they recommended - Nick had some garden herby thing which really tasted grassy. I had... Idk, I didn't enjoy it haha. 

A place to definitely visit if you are staying in W and want to be entertained by a live band or want to dine at a place with a romantic vibe. The food was also great tho on the pricier side . I would definitely recommend all the dishes I had that night
