The most famous branch on the corner of Suriyawongse and Narathiwat-Ratchanakarin. To give the appearance of freshness, there are large glass tanks in front of the restaurant exhibiting live seafood, from crabs to fish. However, as the famed restaurant is a favorite of Chinese and Japanese diners. As for the steamed whole sea bass in soy sauce, they applaud the sweetness and freshness of the fish but the execution was lamentable.

Baan Khanitha is a lot bigger than the former location and has been made impressive in many ways, including decoration and service. Everything about the décor screams out “Thai” including the wooden sculptures, wooden tables and chairs, Buddha figures, plate cabinets and the staff’s traditional uniforms. Dishware is bright green ceramic, and a cute teapot even comes in the shape of an elephant. The service was fantastic and lively, plus every waiter could speak English.

The restaurant serves a modern New Zealand menu in an industrial atmosphere. The manly mood is conveyed through a bare concrete floor, wood panelling, sturdy tables, metal pipe shelving and more. This spacious venue offers settings for different occasions from al fresco breakfast with a side of people-watching to hearty chow time with friends in the dining area to upstairs couches and booths that should allow you more privacy. We visited when Kai was just a few weeks old and the first floor wasn’t ready yet. We are told that they will open for dinner by the end of this month. Office workers and condo dwellers in the area are among their initial customers.

If you are brave enough and forget everything you thought you knew about food, Chinatown will surprise you. Street food is always fun and travellers seem to enjoy mixing with locals to experience something traditional. Yaowarat is famous for its very popular food stalls balanced on the most impractical pavements, not to mention the dubious sanitary conditions. And yet, each plastic chair is occupied and a queue is patiently standing by, trying not to get hit by tuk tuks and bikes passing by. There's also a small selection of indoor restaurants complete with menus in English, including the amazing Double Dogs tea room, with hundreds of types of tea, and Cotton at the stunning Shanghai Mansion

The eatery is unapologetically Southern, hitting every spicy note, which genuine home cooking from those parts is all about. Under the rule of a matriarch chef hailing from Chumpon, the single-room restaurant is family-run: the late father’s portrait stands in the dining room, the courteous daughter takes the orders. She’ll point you to the signature dish, a Southern classic of course, khua kling, which they recommend with diced pork. It can be hazardous if you don’t watch out for the chilis, but that’s the way it’s meant to be. The green phrik kee nuu come whole and in abundance as in many of their other dishes. Tread carefully.

Tourists from all over the world flock here. The food isn't necessarily any better than anywhere else in Chinatown, nor is it any longer cheap, but the seafood abounds, plenty of black crab served with pepper sauce, huge prawns, stuffed scallops, cockle shells, and lots of fresh fish take up most of the menu. The place is hot, noisy, and chaotic, but that is part of the fun. People rubbing elbows with their neighbors, taking pictures, and watching plate upon plate of steaming seafood arrive. There is an air conditioned indoor section just steps away, for those who can't handle the heat, but then you'd be missing out on half the experience.

Thais call the northeastern area that borders Laos along the Mekong River "Isan," and the region has a cuisine of its own. Nowadays popular the country over, the food is best at home in Isan and in Bangkok, where millions from the northeast have moved for work. Incredibly good food is served at roadside stalls, but Sara-Jane's does Isan food as well as anywhere, and the restaurant has the comfort of an air-conditioned dining room. The roast chicken and "som tam" (spicy papaya salad) are top choices, but the Isan sausage and "lab," spicy minced chicken, pork or duck, will also please every time.

The cafe highlights beans by local micro roasters, with two house signature blends: Artisan (Thai, Colombia and Guatemala) and Craftsman (Thai, Brazil and Ethiopia). The menu features various avo-toast options along with some solid pizza (get the chorizo and portabello mushroom), but next door’s Akart Bistro is a better bet for a proper lunch date.

This cafe’s focus on light fare (salads, sandwiches) and coffee has made it a favorite with Sathorn’s busy professionals. On the menu is down-toearth comfort food like breakfast burritos; grilled cheese and sauteed musroom sandwiches served with raspberry ketchup; and the “sloppy meatball sandwich” with fresh mozzarella, roasted garlic, sweet marinara and a brioche bun. Delightful decor comes courtesy of Casa Pagoda, with whom it shares its lofty and chic Pan Road dwellings.

The Gardens of Dinsor Palace is a restaurant set within the house and grounds of a former royal mansion in the Ekkamai (Sukhumvit Soi 63) area of Bangkok. The pan-European menu is complemented by lovingly maintained gardens, swans preening themselves in the pond, and peacocks, bunny rabbits and doves in a large aviary visible through a fully glass-walled side of the house. Built in 1930 for a royal princess, the house itself is made up of a coffee shop, downstairs dining room and several private rooms upstairs each with their own balcony. The Gardens of Dinsor Palace is fantastic for a large gathering of friends or family. The menu is full of tasty options and is very reasonably priced.

It's a favorite of non-meat eaters thanks to no-frills, meat-free comfort food that packs in flavor. There is a thick crowd of both Thais and foreigners. Sitting apart from the healthy food trend often associated with vegetarian food, this restaurant is not afraid to add calories in pursuit of flavor. Dishes like oily fried minced tofu (B129) with holy basil would be hard to find at any serious health-promoting eatery, and while not lean, still manages to be a pleasant, full-flavored kaprao. It’s the same story with their shiitake spring rolls (B99) and cauliflower “spicy wings” (a vegetarian attempt at Bonchon’s chicken wings, B129).

Above Eleven is a very popular 32-storey rooftop bar at Fraser Suites Hotel on Sukhumvit Soi 11 that offers a more vibrant experience than most other rooftops in Bangkok. A few things set this bar apart; Peruvian cuisine, modern party music and value for money signature cocktails being the most apparent. Set over three floors, the view of downtown Bangkok is impressive and far-reaching (despite the lack of riverside views). From here you get a 180-degree panorama of Bangkok, looking towards Siam and the famous row of Bangkok’s shopping malls. There is nothing better than looking down at the slow-moving traffic whilst you enjoy the breeze, drink in hand.

Havana Social Bangkok is a cool secret bar on Sukhumvit Soi 11, which takes a prohibition theme to new heights of authenticity. Think dim lights, classic rum cocktails, exposed beams and crumbling plaster – the 1940s pre-revolution Cuba theme is painstakingly well executed. Bar staff are smartly dressed and coiffured, as are the socialite crowd who were cool enough to find their way to this ‘secret’ bar. The reason why it’s such a secret is there is no signage or front door. Instead, there is just a mock-retro phone booth. Step inside, dial the secret code and a false door in the back of the phone booth swings open. It’s the most unusual entrance to a bar we’ve seen in Bangkok!

The industrial feel of the club makes it the perfect place to escape to when the glitz and glam of Bangkok starts to feel too much. The venue also features a small outdoor veranda for revelers to hang out at as well as one of Bangkok’s top hip-hop rooms called “Dirty Bar” – a club within a club. Expect a different vibe, more catered towards your hip-hop heads here, but expect the same trendy crowd who are all there to party.

Tech-House Club in Thonglor!!
Beam Nightclub Bangkok is one of the latest underground dance clubs to open in the city, bringing underground house and techno music to Bangkok’s bass heads. The music policy is strictly adhering to the ‘cooler’ elements of the dance music scene so don’t expect to hear and vocal EDM tracks. The music style you are most likely to hear is minimal and deep tech-house in the bare, dark main room that is more reminiscent of European dance clubs than the glitzy and glamourous style of partying often preferred by Thais. The VOID Acoustics sound system at Beam Club Bangkok is incredibly good, as is the LED laser and light show.

If Maggie Choo's was a Victorian colonial club hiding in a Hong Kong basement, Sing Sing is its brash L.A. sister. Prolific Bangkok-based Aussie designer Ashley Sutton's (Iron Fairies, Mr. Jones Orphanage, Fat Gutz to name a few) Chinoiserie fetish is here expressed in a Hollywood vision of 1930s Shanghai that's all lanterns, red lighting and elaborate metal screens. A lot of white men who get their style cues from Apple keynote presentations (hope you like untucked dress shirts in dark colors), a few of their vastly better dressed Asian buddies and young ladies hired to strike hieratic poses in outrageous costumes.

the Platinum Fashion Mall is actually like taking a trip to Chatuchak or Pratunam markets with the bonus of a whole lot of icy air conditioning thrown into the mix. Platinum is a wholesale shopping mall, much like its outdoor counterpart Pratunam down the street, where you want to buy 3 pairs rather than 1, with mostly clothing, shoes, and fashion accessories being hawked from hundreds of small shops. The six shopping floors of Platinum are named after world famous shopping streets or districts, like Ginza, Soho, Camden, Orchard and such, and this is the rare mall in Bangkok where bargaining is the norm.

Taking the same approach as he did with the Jam Factory, Duangrit Bunnag (one of the original founders of TCDC and the country’s most famous architect) has transformed a 4,000-sq-meter space of abandoned World War 2-era warehouses in Charoenkrung Soi 30 into Warehouse 30. Two of the warehouses will become a co-working space called OneBig.House, operated by FabCafe. Duangrit’s minimalist fashion brand, Lonely Two Legged Creatures, will get its own flagship store, where you can also take a sneak peek at the designers working on their creative patterns. F&B is taken care of in the next warehouse, with tenants like Summer cocktail and wine bar, managed by the team behind The Never Ending Summer.
