Michelberger Hotel in Berlin seems pretty cool.

A local Thai travel agent managed to screw up the booking of my Hong Kong flight today. Big time. After having paid the agent twice I still had no e-ticket in my mailbox. Since I was already on my way to the airport when realizing, I called the airline directly to buy a new ticket. Lucky as I am, all flights today were full and I was forced to a stopover in Bangkok. I checked in at the legendary colonial hotel The Oriental, wearing the mandatory full-length pants. After chilling by the pool for a few hours it was time for dinner. I really like sitting by the river at The Veranda restaurant. They usually offer a very nice dinner buffet and this evening was no different. Not only did they offer proper sashimi, 500+ varieties of salad dressing, roasted sirloin, turkey, curries, Mongolian BBQ, hand made ice cream, mango with sticky rice (and the list goes on) - they served fresh chicken kebab! Bigups to the creative chef!
