Exploring Bangkok part 2- Union Mall (Fashion mall) & Central Plaza Lat Phrao

Today is Mike's off day so we decided to go to Bangkok for a day trip. We have decided to go to the Union Mall as I have heard a lot about it that there is a lot of fashionable thing over there and more varieties than Platinum Mall.

We set off from Kanchanaburi at 7am and reached Bangkok at 9.30am, as it was still early we parked our car at nearby Big C supermarket (free parking) and walked over to Union Mall. 

Please note that Union Mall open at 11am so we went to Central Plaza (the shopping mall beside Union Mall) first and look for Cinema. Long time never watch English Movie so we decided to watch GI. Joe 2 at Central Plaza and it cost 200 Baht (less than SGD$8) each for good spacious seat. The movie is abit disappointing but still not too bad. Kindly note that watching movie in Thailand, there is a short clip on the King and please stand up when you see that as this is their practice over there.






There is Krispy Kreme at the mall, so please get it when you are there. Please try the original Glazed donuts.

  
We walked pass a dessert shop call "after you Dessert Cafe", there are a lot of people standing in front of the shop taking queue number. We also went to take the number, we waited for approx. 45 minutes until our number is being called.





The lava cake is so soft and the chocolate is not so sweet. Nice. Please try it when you are there.
There are other outlets too.

Those people who love Platinum Mall, you will love Union Mall. The shop layout is about the same as Platinum Mall but is more spacious walkway. There are a lot of varieties (fashion, shoes, bags, make up and even IT stuff) as compared to Platinum Mall, you will not see the same thing all over the mall. It is more expensive as this is not a wholesale mall but the clothes there is so pretty. As I do not really need to dress up here so I give up a lot of clothes that I LOVE.. It is quite big and has a lot of shops that you may shop here for a day.
