An excellent breakfast buffet experience: Restaurant The Ping Cuisine & Bar @ Marriott Chiang Mai (20. December 2023)
As non-eventful as the lobby bar of the hotel is, as great is the breakfast selection in The Ping Cuisine & Bar in the Marriott Chiang Mai – you can find really pretty much everything you need and want. You’re greeted warmly when entering and the waitress, who leads you to your table also takes […]
A relatively disappointing hotel bar experience: Ping’s Bar @ Marriott Chiang Mai (19. December 2023)
Given it was not entirely easy to find a fitting location for drinks, we decided to have a drink at the bar in the hotel, and the “Thai Sabai (Mekhong spiced rum, lemon, Thai basil, lime juice, sugar, soda)” (350 THB) was somewhat okay. I mean, frankly, the drink is okay, but it is definitely […]
A lovely location, but you have to watch out for the mosquitos: Restaurant THE HOUSE by Ginger (19. December 2023)
Upon arrival, it was time to find a place, which offers good and tasty Thai food, hence, the Guide Michelin app was helpful again to find a Bib Gourmand place. Once seated down, we were attended by a very friendly waiter, who would take up the orders and help us out throughout the evening. We […]
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 […]
Celebrating 100 Years of the Red Cross: Food Festival @ Lumphini Park (17. December 2023)
It seems that I’m lucky whenever I go to Bangkok, since there is always some kind of festival when I’m there. This time it was the “100 Years Red Cross” festival and it was the last day, which was celebrated with a lot of food stalls in the Lumphini park. It’s hard to say what […]
