Trying to keep my tradition alive by having Burger King's in all the airports I have been too. Thus, this entry is to commemorate my memory of the Burger King while I was in Beijing.


In Chinese, it's pronounced as "Ham Pau Wang" - I THINK! Don't laugh at me if in case I get it wrong. :P

Anyways, I didn't get the meal this time because I was in the airport at an ungodly hour - 5am!! And I was actually too sleepy/tired to eat anything. So I just got a Double Cheese Bacon burger. But in the end? I ate my burger even before I boarded the plane. :P Boy - I felt sick! Imagine eating that early in the morning! BUT, I have to say, it was quite satisfying. Not sure if it's because I have been having chinese food for the last 5 days there. :P Anyways, burger had BBQ sauce in it which gave it a slight sweet taste to it yet still being able to taste all the preservatives of the burger patty! Haha!


Burger only costed me RMB23 which is equivalent to RM12.50! Don't remember how much a meal costs though. Forgot to take a picture of the actual burger. Was too stoned and lazy to do it actually.. :P

Remember the time when I said I have a mission to go around all the airports to see how much their Burger King cost? I first started this mission during my Bankok, Thailand trip here.

So here's my 2nd encounter on the way back from Seoul.  Actually, I totally forgot about my mission myself until I saw this. And I was like "shit.. now I HAVE to eat Burger King"


 So I checked out the menu and order a Bacom Double Cheese burger. Ordered it because it reminded me of the Bacon Deluxe in Australia. One of my most favourite burger of all time. Always feel sick after but it's the most satisfying feeling ever! Haha!

 Picture of me meal. Somehow looks pathetic? Is it cause it laid on a piece of white paper instead of the colour branded Burger King paper?

 
 My measly 2 slices of bacon. 

Overall, the burger felt quite normal. Lacked the mayo which came with the Bacon Deluxe back in Aus. As for the fries, felt that it was quite bland and hard. For those that know me will know that I love soggy fries and also salty stuff. But I think Korean food in general is very bland - ie. no salt, no pepper. Just depend on the natural taste of the ingredients used.

Now, how much did this meal cost?

Seven freakin' thousand won!


That's equivalent to close to RM21!! I guess the Bangkok one was still more expensive but I think I had more satisfaction eating the Bangkok Burger King. The burger felt slightly bigger, fries were soggy and actually salty.

What I forgot to try is the KLIA Burger King. Is there even one? I will make sure I remember next time. :D

It was our final day in Thailand! And I hadn't bought anything yet NOR have we gone to a massage! How can! The things I wanted to do the most and I hadn't done it yet! Anyways, woke up early again - this time, to make sure we have enough time to do whatever we wanted to do.

So we woke up, packed up our luggage because we had to check out before leaving the hotel as we were only going to come back later in the evening before we left for the airport. First thing on the list? Get a freakin massage! Haha! We headed out to one of the spas in Thailand called Healthland. This place is now a chain in Thailand.


Photo of outside the spa. 

After the massage, we went to Siam Paragon to check out their food court. Pretty nice have to say. They did it well - kinda like Pavilion style but nicer! Haha! They had a wide range of choices for us to choose from. 


Check out their freakin' chickens!! They look like ducks! or rather pregnant chickens! Way bigger than our freakin Malaysian chickens. Haha! :P

Anyways, after lunch, we headed over to my beloved MBK! Muahahaa.. now that's where all the shopping started. Bought my dresses, food, etc!



Once again, the photo will not rotate. But look at all the weird stuff they have there! haha! 


Haha! huge ass crocs shoe with bf's finger sticking out the holes. 

After walking pretty much the main areas of MBK, we decided to head back to the hotel early cause we had to pack all the new stuff we bought during the day and thank god we did! It was raining and it took forever to get a taxi AND get back to the hotel. And from the hotel, took a while to get to the airport! So by the time we actually got there, it was just right timing! Checked in, got dinner, and then headed to the gate straight away. 

Speaking of dinner, me and bf thought since we've already had so much local food during our trip, we'd go for some western food and what's better than...

Burger King!!! *drool*

The thought of Burger King in a foreign country - a country full of pork just got me excited because that only meant 1 thing! BACON DELUXE with ACTUAL BACON in it! Woah! Even thinking of it now also I "lau hao sui". That's like my fav. burger of all time when I was in aus! Haha! Everytime after I eat it, I get so sick but it was so damn worth it! Haha! But too bad, they didn't serve it and I had to resort to a Double Cheese burger. As my bf was lining up for food, all of a sudden, he came back and whispered in my ear, "babe... each value meal is like RM25!". My eyes lit up and my forehead scrunched. How can that be?! How can a freakin' FAST FOOD meal cost RM25? I squinted my eyes (didn't bring my glasses) and checked and yes! It was freakin 245 baht for a meal!!! Me and bf quickly took our luggage and literally walked off to check out other places to eat. Bf checked though that all the other places were also about the same price! So we decided to go back to Burger King. For 2 meals, that how much it costed us to eat at the fried chicken place the night before for 5 people!!

Woah! This is ridiculous man! It's like the govt is punishing us in the airport for buying all the cheap stuff in bangkok itself! It's like.. "Let's kill them before they leave the country". So next time guys, word of advice? Eat before u get to the airport! Photos of our meal below.. come on.. it was freakin RM25 for fast food man. I HAD to take photos!


Picture of our meal


Picture of the burger. Not to say damn nice also.. something was missing. Maybe not enough sauce or something. I don't know. Maybe it's just psychological cause I know we paid RM25 bucks for the burger. Haha!


Us staring in awe at our RM50 meal... :S

I now have a mission to go to all airports to eat burger king to see how much it'll cost. Of course, only applicable if the airport DOES have a burger king. :P
