I Love Bangkok!! 19 - 24 April 2007



For one of the nights, we had dinner at this place call "Cabbages & Condoms". I had seen travel programmes intro this place many times on tv so I decided I had to check it out when we visited Bangkok- my second home, this time round.



The story behind C&C is quite interesting. It seems that long time ago in Thailand, the farmers in Thailand grew lotsa cabbages, so much so, everyone had access to it at one point. With the hope of keeping the number of Thai people contracted STDs, a VWO came up with this initiative where everyone through them can have easy access to condoms and protect themselves against these dieseases.



The night at C&C was probably the only night during our trip where everyone sat down together to have dinner. The other nights, because of different programme, we did not get to have dinner.



The food at C&C was quite good but expensive. After dinner, we went into the souveneir shop and i bought myself an interstingly-shaped cappucino cup. I wished we had more time in the shop but we could not as our masseuse were waiting for us at the massage parlour call "The King & I". To be honest, I think the Thais are more creative when it comes to naming their shops.
