069: The Reef Hotel @ Koh Lipe, Thailand.

19:07 by Tenshi ChnNo comments

There's always two sides to a story because everyone has different opinions.

-

Took a motorcycle cab to our accommodation @ The Reef Hotel. Only cost 50 baht / person (RM5)

It is a small cosy place. Just a place we need for an island trip. The receptionist is very friendly and helpful at all time.

You can also ask her for some movie cd which you can watch in the room if you just want to snuggle up in the room and eat some pizza.

068: From Langkawi to Koh Lipe!

Just a little pricing info on the trip!

We actually booked AirAsia's Zero Fare last year with the intention of going to Koh Lipe from Langkawi. Basic cost per person is as below;

-Air Asia Flight ticker - RM55 / person

(2 ways between Langkawi and KL)

-Nagoya Inn @ Kuah, Langkawi - RM101 / person

(2 nights - before going and after coming back from Koh Lipe)

- Ferry @ Jetty - RM251.40 / person

(2 ways between Langkawi and Koh Lipe)

-The Reef Hotel @ Koh Lipe, Thailand - RM161 / person

(2 nights)

- Car Rental @ Langkawi - RM 50 / person

(2 days - RM 150 for 2 days per car )

Trip consist of 5 Days and 4 Night. Total cost for basics mentioned above .. RM 618.40

The essential that cost the most has got to be the Ferry Ticket from Telaga Terminal to Koh Lipe. It is a little confusing as to where we will be boarding the ferry to Koh Lipe. Is it Telaga Harbour or Kuah Jetty? In the printed ticket, it says Kuah Jetty but it turned out to be at Telaga Harbour for us. O.O

Hence, guys, please check carefully with the service provider which is the place to board your ferry!

Good day, everyone! ^^

Since my teen years, I have been lying exceptionally low on this particular repetitive day every year. Maybe I'm just being ignorance about something...

Might have lost everyone by now but it's okay.. Just something written for myself. Haha..

Let's move on tom something more interesting and yummy!

It involves yummy food and cooking! That's like pretty awesome isn't it! Good food and fun!

I've always wanted to join some cooking class coz I knew it would be super duper fun, informational and you get to eat yummy food at the end of the day! (literally) I enjoyed myself so much at this super delicious cooking class with Chef Florence Tan brought to us by Simplot Malaysia that by the end of the day, I left a really happy girl (: Totally turned my mood upside down!

Did you know that most of us have came across Simplot products one way or another? Pretty amusing, right? I didn't know that at first too! My friends usually say that McDonald's serve the bestEST ever french fries and it's true! Did you know who is the french fries supplier for McDonald's? It's Simplot!

066: Langkawi 2014 - Mostly Food. 2/2

Continuing my food tasting in Langkawi!

4. SUGAR @ Pantai tengah

Am going to review these two place together which is like a brother sister restaurant.

Before I got to know about these two eateries, I chance upon La Pari Pari, a small hotel with a beautiful concept like non other in Langkawi. Sugar and FatCupid are two ideas who came from the same people.

Hence, you can definitely expect something amazing from them.

I was pretty excited when I found out about Sugar. It gives a totally different feeling to this holiday trip. Usually, when I travel in my own country, I would only expect the local feel. This, however, makes me feel like I am having a very relaxing holiday at an island abroad. Does not feel like home at all as the surrounding was not set to express the asian vibe.

065: Langkawi 2014 - Mostly Food. 1/2

As the title suggest.. mostly FOOD!

Langkawi is a pretty small island and the place for good food is actually not many. Have tried a few when we were there last year (am deliberating if I should blog about them) and this year, we tried different place food again.

It was extremely hot when we got off the airport. Rented a Viva for RM70 since it is more convenient and cost about the same if we travel by cab. Before heading to our place for the night at Kuah, we figured that we should get some food first.

1. THAI MAMA @ Jalan Pantai Tengah

This was our first stop because one of my friend wanted to try this badly on our last day (last year) but it wasn't open for business yet. So, this year, die die have to try this restaurant. Lol. Found this restaurant advertised on the Langkawi Free Map with a picture of a boy name Justin recommending it. I have no idea who this kid is but we jokingly figure out that it must be the kid of the owner. Haha..

064: Bone & Pot Steamboat (Old Klang Road)

Everytime I fell inlove with a song, I kept it playing on loop until I get sick of it.
Does anyone else do that? or am I just the weird one.

This is probably my 2nd or 3rd time at Bone and Pot Steamboat. Don't know why but I always remember it as Pork & Bone instead. Too crazy about pork bone soup. Haha..
