Day 4

• We took the BTS to Chit Lom station. We walked through Gaysorn (an upmarket shopping mall) to get to Narrai Phand but it was closed
  
• We headed to Big C Rajadamri where we found a factory outlet store with cheap Levi's and Dockers (as cheap as 850 Bht for jeans or khakis)
• Went to Big C but didn't find any mini items like we were told
  
• Took the BTS from Chit Lom to Siam. Went to Siam Square looking for Lam Som Tam Nua on Soi 5. But we stopped before that at a alley between Soi 5 and Soi 6 with a nice sign that said Food Plus. It was a lane filled with stalls on the left and wooden park benches on the right selling about the same thing along the whole way
• We found a table and sat down. We looked around only to find that we were in a sea of locals and all the menus were in Thai. The stall next to us, however, was very well patronised. So, to go with the flow, I had 'chap fan' from this stall which was extremely good. If you were to try the food here, have the minced pork. Verdict:Price was 35 Bht/plate of 2 meats +egg + rice, loved it! Excellent experience - probably the best local food we've had
• Walked around Siam Square, lots of nice little shops selling clothes and knick-knacks, own designs, very interesting, this place reminded me of Oxford Street in Sydney
• We saw Hard Rock Cafe from afar, couldn't get to it as it started to rain. We walked into Siam Centre and had coffee at Black Canyon Coffee. Tip:Buy 1 free 1 on Wednesdays!
• Took a taxi outside Siam Paragon to the Platinum Fashion Mall
  
• Walked to the Chit Lom Station (approximately 15 minutes) and took the BTS back to Asok
  
• We had dinner at Cabbages and Condoms along Soi 12, Sukhumvit. Verdict: Different setting. A one-off thing to do when in Bangkok for the first time. Foot massage cost 60 Bht/15 minutes, all money goes to a good cause
  
• Walked down 2 minutes along the same soi to Crepes and Co. Verdict: Lovely setting, friendly staff, affordable, comfortable and relaxing. It's a nice place to go to with friends, wide selection of sweet and savoury crepes
