shopping here sucks- vendor was super rude and attitude and will want to rip you off with exorbitant prices. i know their stuff is from taobao/aliexpress, and you can still choose to support them given the price is reasonable and right. however, their markup is RIDICULOUS. even platinum mall in bangkok don’t even quote such expensive prices and platinum mall has aircon and i believe the rental there is higher. food wise, was approached by a guy selling halal thai food and decided to give it a try. the food was average given the price, but service was good. will recommend the scallops from the seafood store, it was cheap($8sgd for 3 pieces) and yummy!

If they are full, they will conjure seating. If you are hot, a cold towel will appear. If you get wet, a dry towel will be delivered. We stayed at Karon so it was a 150thb Bolt ride each way but still worth it...
