Travel • Phuket June2016 (Part 1-Day 2)

Rise and Shine! It's Day 2 at Novotel Karon. We headed to the Horizon cafe where they serve buffet breakfast. Greeted by friendly servers & sumptuous spread!




Yes! U saw it right! That's a pancake machine. It dispenses 3 pancakes at a press of the button!Both the boys were intrigued by it and had pancakes for breakfast daily! πŸ˜…
Choice of juices at the corner, would prefer fresh juices instead of concentrates thou.
There're also melamine crockery specially for the children's use! No more worrying the kid might drop and break the bowl 😜
We brought the boys to the kids club after breakfast~ Kids World.

It's divided into 2 areas.


This section is for the younger kids. There is a small slide and ball pit, puzzles, building blocks, play kitchen and table toys.


And this zone's for the older kids, mainly TV games, arcade games & a small library. There's also movie-on-demand.
I was impressed with how neat and clean the kids club was! And the good range of toys/activities suitable for 6mo babies to teenagers, in fact even for the adults! πŸ˜„
Look! Even the dad can't resist a game of soccer on Playstation!
After a good hour plus spent at the Kids World, we went to the pool and had lunch at Joe Kool again.
Lil K really liked their fried rice! πŸ˜ƒ
On most days, Mini K would return to the room with me (shortly after lunch) and have a nap while Lil K stayed on with Daddy. They'll either be at the kids club or hanging out at shady parts of the pool. 
And we'll join them again after nap, for teabreak & short splash 😊 #TravellingWithToddler

 For the 2nd day's dinner, Daddy suggested trying out BBQ skewers. So we took a cab to Karon Town again.

BBQ meat skewers

Rice noodle soup, Basil Pork, Prawn fritters, Shrimp omelette
Ordered chicken skewer and bacon sausage skewer,both were nice. But their Thai dishes were a lil on the salty side, I had to add hot water to dilute out the rice noodles soup for Mini K.

After dinner, we returned to the resort and redeemed our Welcome Drinks at Champions Bar.






Lil K had a friendly pool match with Daddy,while Mini K watched and collected some choice balls πŸ˜‚ No prize for guessing who's the winner. It doesn't matter how good u are at the game,Daddy!😝

Recipe • The Very Versatile Anchovy Soup Stock!

Image
I cook chinese style vegetable soup pretty often. It's a good way to increase the kids' vegetables intake and convenient for days when I only whip up a soup and meat dish. Most importantly, the boys love drinking their soup when it's cooked with this stock! This stock is suitable for many types of Chinese soup, example: Chinese Spinach meatballs/fishballs soup Wolfberry Leaves egg drop soup Yong Tau Foo soup Cabbage soup Shrimp-Pork dumplings soup Winter Melon soup & Cai Xin or Xiao Bai Cai soup too! I often get queries on what is the soup base when I post photos of such soup, so I think it's high time I give this delicious and versatile soup base its own space in this blog! Also, I hope my own kids will get to follow this recipe here and cook their favorite "mummy's soup" in future and be able to reminisce the taste of their childhood!
