Hi guys...

So i've been having some anxieties the past few days and i decided to try out a teraphy that usually works well to calm me down : to blog about something that makes me truly happy and feel like i'm transported to happier times : travel. I know i haven't been updating about my super backdated trips, but i couldn't think of a better time to do it than when i truly miss it and need it like right now. I've been sad too about not knowing when we can travel again (technically we can, i can go to Bali or even Turkey, but i just don't feel safe to do so and i don't want to risk it) so here's a cafe recommendation for y'all kawaii lovers for the next moment we can step out of the country safely.

Honestly, the only thing that made me excited about our trip last year to Thailand was this cafe *LOL*. I went to Thailand (only Bangkok and Pattaya though) way too many times when i was younger and honestly i was quite bored of the touristy places (back then independent trips were still something foreign for me and since i was with my school/family, i relied on them for the itinerary, and when you take tour packages, they tend to bring you to the same place over and over again, those tourist traps) and their fashion was not to my liking (somehow their fashion now is right down my alley *LOL*. It's so weird, i dunno if they become suddenly fashionable in the past 10 years (okay, 10 years is not sudden, but the change is so dramatic IMO) or my taste changes. No, i don't think it's the latter. I still have some clothes i bought there 15 years ago or something (true story) and it's definitely a far cry from what they have in the market now.

Basically, i wasn't too interested in returning to Thailand except to shop and because i was OBSESSED with this Unicorn Cafe - ofc then we had quite an adventure, visiting places i've never been and discovering things we'd never know about if we have no local "tour guide" (who lets us crash in her place *LOL*, best tour guide ever. Shout out to my babe Bo) and now i would kill to return to Thailand (preferably to some other cities like Chiang Mai tho). Life and travels just got so much easier thanks to the internet, and then completely ruined by Covid 19. The Circle of Life i guess.

And with that long ass intro, i just wanted to tell you. I was dying to come to this cafe because i LOVE unicorn and i love quirky cafes okay.

I love this pic so much i think it's good enough to be the cafe's advert WTF

Anyway, the Unicorn Cafe was actually nearby Bo's place and it took us only a short taxi ride to get there. Much to my surprise, there are actually TWO of them (same company, i guess they got so popular on IG and decided to open another one to accommodate all the crazy tourists like moi).

Here's Zone A, that looks a lot more muted and toned down. Not that i came there for, sorry *LOL*

Now, this is what i came for ehehehe. The loud, OTT, Zone B Unicorn Cafe  44/1 Soi Sathon 8, Silom, Bang Rak, Bangkok 10500, Thailand

I mean, just look at the huge unicorn statue...

Sorry ah, tourist gotta do what a tourist gotta do

My happy place for sure hehe

Now, let me clarify something first. Olin's camera's really nice and she knows how to set it right too so somehow all of the pics turned out super pretty and dreamy. The real place? Er.. It's not as pretty as it looks in photographs. I honestly expected it to be more like those Japanese/Taiwanese dreamy thematic cafes but in reality... It's Thailand. No offence, but Thailand is still a lot more similar to Indonesia than Japan/Taiwan so i don't know why i had such a high expectations *LOL*. Reality is the place is not very pastel at all but very loud and almost neon colored. I took some photos of the place with my sucky pocket camera and it shows the sad reality hahaha but you know, you come to this place to take pics and with today's phone cameras and digital camera, achieving this kind of pics is not impossible so why taint the beauty of this blog post by showing the reality *LOL*.

Don't worry, i wasn't disappointed. I was still super happy to be there and i found the place to be super cute (although tacky. Seriously, this cafe is like how i feel about Thai actors too *LOL*. Some of you who comes from my IG would know that i'm quite obsessed with Thai actors lately, there are so many handsome ones and their visual's comparable to Korean actors but manlier. Because of their looks, i tend to forget that Thailamd is Thailand, and sometimes i get a bit of a shock when i see the background or location because it yanked me back to reality *LOL*. Looks too similar to where i am living, not glossy like how K-Dramas are) and totally worth a visit.

One of the cutest thing about the place is the many unicorn and ponies plushies hanging on the ceiling

Ofc like all other thematic cafes, there are plenty of plushies strewn around for you to take pics with

 And like most thematic cafes, they are quite dirty and dusty *LOL*. It was pre-Covid so nobody hesitate to hug and pose with them anyway, we can always wash our hands and shower afterwards right... Not so easy these days ofc *LOL*.

In case you don't know yet, when i plan to go to thematic cafes, i dress accordingly :p. You'd never finf me not matching the place fo sho

Yeah they sell a lot of (overpriced) unicorn stuffs to, i personally would skip them and purchase them at a much better price at markets/mall :p

I took the time to photograph the whole menu book for ya, ofc it's been over a year so they might take off/add some items or justify the prices, but i think this would still be plenty helpful for those of you planning to visit in the future.

The must order is ofc the kawaii drinks! One thing that i love about Thai cafes, they don't have minimum orders and even the thematic cafes are damn affordable

For the sweet tooth. These are stuffs that i'm never interested in tho *LOL*.

I don't know about you but the colorful cheese over the karage scares the beejesus out of me :p

And i also dunno if it's a cultural thing, but the strawberry salad is just... wrong *LOL*

They do have a LOT on their menu, i honestly would never expect steak menus in a thematic cafes like this. Also not something that i would order anyway, i have trust issues with thematic cafes' food :p. Even the Japanese ones okay

Now, this is more like it :p

Mandatory pic with everything that we ordered :p

I think this was Bo's order. It's the kind of drink that's the best for picture taking in this place but personally i could never drink *LOL*. If i came with my husband i might order it because then i can make him drink 80% of it, but i wasn't and i know i could not take more than a few sips of the drink so why not borrow it from someone who already ordered it haha

Hot cocoa. It was swelteringly hot that day, just looking at it makes me sweat :p

Now, this is my order. When it's crazy hot, i tend to go for something sour and sometimes soda (although i normally don't drink soda. I probably drink soda like, 10 times a year. Mostly when i'm at McD haha

We also ordered a cake to share. It was... edible *LOL*

The cupcakes were cute but we couldn't even finish a slice of cake between the 3 of us so not ordering the cupcake was a wise decision hahaha Like i said, i was super happy to be there, i ticked it off my list and i get so many cute pics. Would i return? I'd say it's a place where you only need to come once if you're a tourist (if i'm a local, i wouldn't mind returning because they let you take as many pics as you want, there are a lot of cute spots, the staffs leave you alone, the prices' reasonable, there are a lot menus to choose from and they also don't mind if you only order drinks! Those are all the criterias that i look for in a cafe especially as a content creator!) as there are plenty of other cute, unique and Instagrammable cafes in Bangkok. But would i recommend you to come here? If you love unicorn, kawaii-ness and pastel colors the answer is a hard yes. But if you're looking for extraordinary menus and mind blowing taste, obviously you're reading the wrong blog post *LOL*. And that's it for today, folks! The teraphy works, i'm no longer anxious! I always feel so happy and accomplished after finishing a travel post *LOL*, i wish they are not such a pain to prep though (i have prepping the pics because i use a LOT of pics and i HAVE to have them in the right order because i am a story teller, and well - an OCD as well...). If you're interested on this kind of places, you might want to check out my post on La Fleur X Uniqorn Cafe too. Toodles! #Pink
