More on Day 1/2 at Phuket

As I promised, this post will be merely on the highights of the second day (we arrived at Phuket in the night so technically speaking it should be the first day..oh well). 

Morning

We had a quick breakfast in a cozy cafe along the street next to Patong beach. 
Thereafter, we went to the nearest mall called Jungceylon for a cooler shopping experience. Guess what?
We found this shop called Takashi which is a Japanese concept of doing facial (at 299 baht = SGD $12!! OMG RIGHT?!) Girls who need to cleanse their face after all the crazy shopping, I will strongly recommend this shop to you. The express facial was done in only 30 minutes and I would say that the service is pretty good ;)

Check out the pics below!!



Afternoon

We had a fabulous seafood lunch at this restaurant called "Pak Nam Seafood". It is very popular among the locals and so after 17 km drive from our hotel, we finally arrived at this place. The recommended time to go is 12pm- 4pm because after 4pm, the place will fill up real quickly!!

We had clams, minced pork omelette and the best part of the meal was the Thai-styled fried fish. It was fantastic!! Salivating just thinking of it now..lol






Late afternoon

After the hearty meal, we made our way to the Expo Fair at Phuket Square (just 2.3km from Pak Nam seafood restaurant). Ladies, if you are a shoe addict, this is THE place for you to go. There all types of shoes here!! Sneakers, boots, ballerina pumps, flats, high heels, stilettos, sandals everything!!!!
Shoes are going at a starting price of 120 baht (SGD $6 only). Here are just some pictures of the shoes I fell in love at first sight...


Evening

Enough of the shopping..by 5.30 pm, we decided that it was time to leave before we wipe out whatever money we had brought along. We drove for another 15 km to this place called Tung Ka cafe with a beautiful view of the sun setting.
We arrived at around 6 plus, just in time to catch the sunset and took these photos






We ordered two simple dishes i.e. crabmeat green curry and hokkien noodle. Aside from those dishes, I had a glass of Strawberry Honey yoghurt which was so refreshing and delicious.
I would give the crabmeat green curry a thumbs up and recommend that you try it. The crabmeat is in abundance and the curry was bursting with flavour...yum yum.. the noodles on the other hand was just so-so..not their specialty perhaps? Oh well..
