In Sha Raku’s scenic courtyard, new Japanese bakery Iwane 1975 (14 Sukhumvit Soi 23, 02-664-3450. Open Mon-Sat 8am-6pm) offers fresh sweet and savory pastries, from custard and coco buns (B25) to Japanese curry sausage (B35). They also make Western classics, like butter croissants (B25) and...
K. Village seems to have a pretty high turnover when it comes to restaurants. Self-proclaimed “Michelin-standard” Italian restaurant Inversus is the latest to bite the dust. The place is now boarded up and a new restaurant is in the works. Sources tell us it’s the same owners,...
In a bid to keep up with the competition, Siam Discovery has revamped its fifth and sixth floors into a busy food center with numerous eateries. Many are familiar chains like Ootoya (02-658-0020) and Outback Steakhouse (02-658-0202), but we’re intrigued by two restaurants in particular:...
Bussaracum (Bangkok’s very first fancy Thai restaurant) is moving from Thong Lor to Sathorn. Also opening early Sep is Catalana (Sukhumvit Soi 11), making it the second tapas place in Soi 11. Zuma, the global chain of hiso Japanese restaurants, is currently hiring, and St. Regis (where it...
We are intrigued by the nearly single-minded devotion to the dish shown by Bangkok Burger Company (G/F, Opus Building, Thong Lor Soi 10, 085-085-2423. Open daily 11am-11pm). Pick a size (regular or large), pick a meat (pork or beef) and finally, pick from an impressive selection of recipes,...
The people who brought you Birds in a Row, the healthy homemade lunch and dinner delivery service, have now bit the bullet and opened their very own restaurant. Seven Spoons (211 Chakkrapatipong Rd., 02-628-4588) is a small eatery in a Chinese shophouse refurbished with a whole lot of wood (...
It’s over a month old but it slipped under our radar—a serious omission our Francophile friends tell us. Zinc is that coppery metal that covers old school bars in Paris, so you can expect Le Petit Zinc to go for a bistro menu with classics like salade Perigourdine (the kind of protein-...

Yummier than any deck of cards you’ve ever owned, Famulous Eateries covers 52 Bangkok restaurants, both streetside and airconditioned, that are a little off the beaten path. The deck covers well-documented classics like Mon Nom Sod (on Dinso Rd.) and Roti Mataba (Phra Athit Rd.) as well as...
The popular new restaurant located on the top floor of Opposite, Garden of Dream (4/F, Opposite, Sukhumvit Soi 51, 02-662-5057) is making a welcome foray into brunch—a genre we still can’t have enough of, especially when it takes place in a bare cement meets tropical garden kind of...
