A decent flight experience, but just not the same as in First: Flight BKK – ZRH (LX181) (17. July 2026)
After flying First to Bangkok, the flight back in Business is obviously nothing you can compare, especially regarding the ground experience as well as the inflight experience. However, the food was quite fair. As a starter, you get “bread with butter” and “tomato and burrata mousse with eggplant salad and balsamic pearls”. The salad is […]
An absolutely outstanding dining experience – on every level at No. 22 of The World’s 50 Best: Restaurant Sühring (16. July 2026)
Once you have entered the Sühring, you realise immediately that they are on another level (of course, the 3 Michelin stars at the entrance are a give-away here). You’re briefly seated in the entrance area until your table is ready … … and then brought to your table where the crew welcomes you and you’re […]
A lovely (insecure) view over Bangkok with interesting drinks: The Speakeasy @ Hotel Muse, Autograph Collection (15. July 2026)
On the first visit to the Hotel Muse, there was somehow no time to visit the bar on the top floor, but today, it worked out. So, The Speakeasy (which isn’t well hidden, tbh) offers an unobstructed view over the skyline of Bangkok (at least parts of it) and is in thus far interesting as […]
A lovely dining experience at No. 35 of The World’s 50 Best: Restaurant Nusara (15. July 2026)
Visiting the Nusara has been on my list for quite a while already as it has been among The World’s 50 Best for quite a while by now. That being said, these days it’s No. 35 of the world, so, I was – naturally – superbly curious to experience it. When you enter the Nusara, […]
A good choice, considering the limited selection available: Restaurant Imm Rice & Noodle Zone Satellite (West) (1. July 2026)
If you’re flying from the Satellite Terminal BKK, then there aren’t too many options available, also, because quite a few airlines don’t have lounges yet (incl. Thai Airways, which I found rather surprising). So, the Imm Rice & Noodle restaurant seemed like a decent option to eat something and, luckily, they offer noodle soups. I […]
Not sure what to make of the visit – good food, but a somewhat non-satisfactory service experience: Restaurant etcha (30. June 2026)
When you book at the Etcha, you better make sure you want to go and won’t have to cancel. Their policy is rather strict with you pre-paying 3’750 THB per person and the clear statement that the amount is not refundable – under no circumstances. I find that quite a strong stance, but, of course, […]
An outstanding dining experience at the No. 30 of The World’s 50 Best: Restaurant Le Du (29. June 2026)
The Le Du has been on my bucket list for quite a while already and somehow, whenever I had been to Bangkok, I didn’t manage to pay this place a visit. Hence, it was more than time to finally dine here. The dinner was the “Le Du Experience (6-course menu)” (5’500 THB) with a “7 […]
Great dishes in a simple location – with speedy service: Restaurant Baannok Bangkok (29. June 2026)
I hadn’t ordered the “coocnut” (180 THB), but a watermelon juice, but after it had been served, I figured, why not, and it was quite tasty. Plus, it was a good deal since the coconut was relatively big, so, you would get a lot of coconut water. I decided to go for the “pork crackling […]
