ART BOX @ Bangkok

ART BOX

For the past 2 years, everyone is raving about ART BOX when they are in Bangkok. This is consider one of the newest night market. But before you go, do check out where they are locate at through their Facebook. as these night market is mobile, there is no fix location.

For this time, i went to the ART BOX at EM District. The location is very convenient where i take BTS and alight at Phrom Phong. Just follow the crowd and less than 5min walks will reach the ART BOX.

The moment you reach the entrance, you will see the neon light where you cant miss it. In fact they have staff to guide us in and also they seems to check the bag for security reason when you carry large bag.

We were there quite early, thus able to snap lots of photo to show the area before nite fall.

The place is segregate into few sections where you had the food, live band, live dwg and fashion buys. I would say that for the ART BOX @ EM district is not huge, maybe within an hour you can tour finish unless you sit back relax and have a beer there, listening to live band.

Also for those who are looking for bargain buys, this is a wrong place for you. Over at ART BOX, it is more about fashion and unique items. A totally different environment and feel compare to those night market where you expect things selling at 100 baht. 

 This is what i call creativity, where they sell drinks in the drip/transfuse bags.

 Another items i try is their drink, where maybe they had add some special ice to have the smoke effect.

Also we pack back some korean fried chicken which i feel super awesome. Great taste at minimum price.

If you like to have a drawing of yourself, get hold of any artisit here to have your caricature drawing. 

Found a spot to have some cool picture taken.

Does it worth the Hype???

Well i would say, do come to experience a different feel of night market.  Probably the food attract me more as they are really good and unique compare to other place i went.

Japan Hual from Daiso, 100Yen Shop ( Can Do), 3Coins and Natural Kitchen

Japan had many dollar store, and if you did not control yourself well, you might burst your wallet easily.

I went to some of the stores and here what i got from Tokyo:

Daiso
This is super popular all over the world and I went to the store at Harajuku.
All items is typically at 100Yen before their tax so is like SGD1.26 / item

But for Daiso, i just got a few items as follow:

100 Yen (Can Do)

This is the shop that I prefer more than Daiso. Actually they sell almost similar to Daiso, but I find I'm able to get more items that does not sell back in Singapore Daiso. And most important they carry more sanrio products like Pom Pom Purin or My Melody. This are items you won't be able to find at daiso. They also carry snacks from Meiji.
So here a snap shot of items i got from there:

3 Coins

As what the name say, 3 coins of 100 yen which make all items selling at ¥300. This shop is targeting at selling items at a better quality of those 100Yen shop. Is also a place where you are able to get all sort of items. But this time round I only get some Christmas ornaments as a gift for friends.

Natural Kitchen

I would say this shop selling more of home decoration items. They are like pop up store, where they often change the items according to festive season too.
Price can range from ¥100 to ¥1500. But most of the items is at ¥100 or ¥300. If you do not see any price label, that mean it is selling at ¥100.
So far in Tokyo I only manage to find it in Shinjuku some where at 2nd floor between the connection from My Lord to Odakyu department store.

So if you are in Tokyo and pass by all this shops, pop in and take a look.

With so many choices of dollar shops... you just can't have enough shopping at Japan.

I'm already start missing it.
