A place to see the sunset in Bangkok – and to have a look at the Eye of Sauron: Brewski Rooftop Bar @ Radisson Blu Plaza Bangkok (5. January 2024)
Finding a place, which is kind of decent, in terms of atmosphere and view, plus offers good drinks, is actually not as easy and straightforward as you might think, so it took a while to find the Brewski Rooftop Bar on top of the Radisson Blu Plaza Bangkok, but if you manage to find that […]
When the online review is much better than reality: Hair of the Dog Phrom Phong (5. January 2024)
Sometimes a place is super well rated on Google, but then, when you end up there, you wonder why. I mean, sure, they have about 120 different beers, but given that they have only one local brand, is a bit disappointing really. In any case, as nice as the beer selection is, as disappointing is […]
A hidden gem of peace and quiet in a buzzing city: The Bar @ The House on Sathorn @ W Bangkok (5. January 2024)
Despite having stayed at the W Bangkok before, I didn’t have a chance to try the options at The House on Sathorn, so it was time to do so. The Bar, which is located in The House on Sathron is actually a super lovely place in the midst of a busy city. The “Bael Gimlet […]
A truly local Thai experience you wouldn’t normally discover as a tourist: Restaurant Savoey River View (18. December 2023)
We were lucky enough to get a truly local Thai dining experience as we have been taken around by locals and got to try a few very different dishes (which we couldn’t have ordered as the menu was entirely in Thai). The “crab curry” didn’t look too appealing, but it was actually absolutely exquisite in […]
A food market worth visiting – and where you will be full for sure: Thonburi Market Place (18. December 2023)
Apparently, the Thonburi Market Place has only opened recently, and it’s worth visiting. I mean, it’s not super central, but it is still worth the drive if you are in the city for a few days. It is basically a huge open market with a lot of different market stalls and food stalls – and […]
An absolutely authentic local Thai street food experience: Street Food Stall Guichaisapanhan (กุยช่ายสะพานหัน สาขาตลาดพลู) (18. December 2023)
For more than 8 years I order my shirts and suits from the same Thai tailor, Prince (you can find his produce under http://www.royalasiaboutique.com and he travels to Europe several times a year to take measures and do fittings). And he was so kind to take us out on a day in Bangkok – and […]
A luscious breakfast selection worth indulging in: Restaurant The Kitchen Table @ W Bangkok (18. December 2023)
What I love at Ws is really their luscious breakfast. You find kind of everything you need and want, ranging from the typical sweets and pastries … … to a salad bar … … a variety of juices and drinks … … and even fresh coconut juice in a coconut … … a variety of […]
A speak easy with good drinks, but rather on the small side of things: You Know Where Speakeasy (17. December 2023)
Sometimes Google is your best friend! The You Know Where is a nice and small speak easy. Booking in advance is highly recommended since the place is small, but we were lucky enough to score a place by the bar, and then a table. Once you’re seated, you’re served some “seasoned spicy banana chips”, which […]
