Wonderful Scenery of Colurful Sea at Koh Lipe, Satun

Hi friends,

Today i'm gonna tell you about my latest trip to Koh Lipe in Satun province. Satun is the province in the southern region of Thailand as Satun has many fantastic island for travellers to discover including Koh Tarutal and Koh Lipe.

In order to visit Koh Lipe, you must hire for the speed boad at Pak Bara Pier in Satun but please remember that the speed boat will depart from Pak Bara Pier to Koh Lipe at 11.30 and 13.30 daily.

The distance from Satun to Ko Lipe is approximately 2 hours and then, you will arrive at “Pattaya Beach” which is deemed to be the capital of this island. At this point, you will be transfer to the long tail boat or the taxi boat which will take you to any beach in this island at the same price of 50 baht per person. For me, i booked the hotel named “Mountain Resort”situated at the sunset beach which is only 10 minutes from Pattaya Beach

When i arrived at Mountain Resort, i really love it and think that "This Place is really Great"because of its own privacy fantastic seaside together with incredible colorful sea generating wonderful scenery (as you can see from the image). At present (December 2010), the rate for VIP room is 2,200 baht per night and 1600 baht for general room which, in my opinion, is really cheap if compared to other resorts and hotels. As mentioned its name, Mountain Resort situated in the hill where you can discover dramatic scenery of colorful sea from your room, furthermore, this resort is located in the hill, so, it will be safe for the risk of disaster Tsunami Wave as well.

After checking in, i'm enjoy swimming in the emerald sea at the private beach of this hotels which make me feel really comfortable and relax.

The City of Delicious Food Trang, Thailand

Hi friends,

Haven't post for a long time as this month is the holiday season and i just come back from my trip to "Trang" province. Generally, this province is also famous in its beautiful island like Koh Muk, Emerald Cave, Koh Ma for instance. However, one thing that you can't miss when you visiting Trang is its delicious food and beverage. Today i'm gonna tell you about the most favorite food of Trang that you can't miss when visiting this province.

1. Dim sum

Due to the ancestor of Trang civilian mostly migrate from China, therefore, you can taste delicious "Dim Sum" everywhere in the city center and the price is really cheap if compared to Dim Sum in Bangkok. If you order "Dim sum", some local famous restaurants will serve you the full set of Dim Sum as the price will be calculated concerning on how many pieces of Dim Sum that you ate. After tasting Trang's Dim Sum, i think its taste is very delicious and what i like is you can eat various dishes of Dim Sum and pay only what you eat, however, please note that Dim Sum in Trang will only be served in the morning.

2. Trang Grill Pork

Trang Grill Pork is one of the most favorite food in Trang and some people also said that "if you come to Trang and you haven't taste the Grill Pork, it means that you have never come to this province." So, i have to taste for the delicious Grill Pork. Like Dim Sum, the Grill Pork can easily find everywhere in this province especially in the city center where you can find famous Grill Pork restaurant. The restaurant that i've visited named "Trang Grill Pork", you can taste for tasty Grill Pork and Dim Sum in this restaurant. Of course, i ordered both Grill Pork and Dim Sum. As i mentioned earlier, Dim Sum served with full set and i ordered small dish of Grill Pork as it served without any source. After tasting, i think Trang famous menu is different from other region in Thailand as you can enjoy eating it without requiring any sources.

I really enjoy eating in Trang province and if i stay in this province for more than 1 week, i will surely get fat.

Note
Price for Trang Grill Pork in most local restaurant are as follows
-Small Dish 50 Baht
-Medium Dish 100 Baht
-Large Dish 150-200 Baht
-1 Kilogram for 360-380 Baht

Thank you for interesting my posy. See you on my next post.
