3 Days 3 Nights in Khao Yai - Day 1 Part 2/2
I had previously written about how to go to Khao Yai and PB Valley Khao Yai Winery. Feel free to read into those if you did not have the chance to do so! 🙂
Now, let's us continue on with the tour! For the second stop, we went to the Yellow Submarine!
Stop 2 - Yellow Submarine Coffee Tank
Are you thinking about a yellow submarine? Initially, my mum thought that we were going to see a yellow submarine, but she was so wrong! Yellow Submarine is a cafe situated in Khao Yai! The cafe was surrounded with greens, and the cafe adopts a rustic style in the interior. It has a lovely contrast; it like a fusion between nature and the modern world. It's a perfect spot to take your OOTDs! We did see a lady taking her photos from the main entrance and various corners of the cafe.
Of course, one has to order a yummy toast in a cafe in Thailand! I ordered the Black Honey Toast and Iced Thai Tea with Hokkaido Milk. My family is not a fan of dessert, so that's all we ordered.
Thai Ice Tea with Hokkaido Milk
First, let's talked about the Iced Thai Tea with Hokkaido Milk. This has to be one of the best Thai Tea I had during the trip. It was not too sweet for my liking! Iced Thai Tea usually is very sweet because condensed milk is added. Instead of using condensed milk, Hokkaido Milk was used. The tea blended well with the milk. The overall taste was not too sweet, and it was still smooth. Moreover, the server presented the tea and the milk separately; thus you could customise your own drink! I added in the entire bottle of the milk, and it did not overpower the fragrance of the tea.
Black Honey Toast with Vanilla Ice-cream!
Next, the Black Honey Toast! The toast was actually charcoal bread. It was toasted to perfection. It was crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. It was still hot, so the vanilla ice-cream and the warm toasted went very well together. Even without the ice-cream, the toast went well with and without the honey. Personally, I like this. It's a tasty dessert. It wasn't too sweet or buttery like the toasts by After You.
I am missing these 2 dishes while writing about them. Damn... someone brings me back here!
Look at it smiled for the camera!
Anyway, there is an adorable dog in this cafe. When we reached the cafe, the dog came out and peeped at us at the entrance. Then, it went back to rest in the restaurant. When we were returning back to our car, he walked us out. He even decided to join in to take a photo with me. The dog was like a friendly service crew too!
Stop 3 – Phuwanalee Resort
Then, we went to check in to our resort at Phuwanalee Resort. I would leave the review of this hotel for the next post. So, stay tuned!
Stop 4 - Krua Khao Yai Restaurant
After a short break at our hotel, we decided to go for dinner. As we are feeling slightly tired, we decided to go somewhere nearby for dinner. We went to Krua Khao Yai Restaurant, and the first thing we did was to order one coconut for each of us. There was a promotion that day. We bought 4 coconuts and got 1 free. We ordered a scrambled egg, fried fish, broccoli, shrimp cake and more. I didn’t eat much as I don’t usually eat dinner. However, I would say that the dinner was pretty average. It was not bad, but it wasn’t great as well.
5 coconuts for 4 people! Well… I took 2.
This dish was pretty good! I can have this all for myself.
After dinner, we went back to the resort to chill. That’s the end of day 1 in Khao Night! It’s a pretty short day.
