214/7-8 Phuket Rd., Phuket Town, 076-216-293. Open daily 10:30am-5pm. Closed every 29th of the month
Phuket Town takes great pride in its Hokkien traditions. The best place to get a taste of the city’s Chinese ancestry is at Mee Ton Poe, right on the Clock Tower Circle....
Jazz Gallery Art & Music Club
2/F, 44 Plaza, Jakrapong Rd., 02-629-5821/2. Open daily 5pm-1am.
Don’t judge a bar by its location. Yes, it’s right in the hustle and bustle of the backpacker mecca, but this restaurant-cum-lounge-cum art gallery actually aims for those with more...
1. Snapper: The Cheap Charlie's cul-de-sac on Sukhumvit Soi 11 has been seeing some new additions of late. The highlight among them, we think, is Snapper, a simple, very casual restaurant specializing in sustainably fished New Zealand seafood. Calling itself Bangkok's first NZ restaurant, Snapper...
1. ART >> Let's Panic. Can't get enough of the big bad flood? The exhibition on Bangkok's flood is extended to Jan 29, 2012 at BACC.
2. NIGHTLIFE >> Funkagenda. With it's funky stilts, we're pretty sure the club will survive the floods (it probably floats, too). Check out this...

Peaceful Town
Nan
After Pai, it was Chiang Khan. And after Chiang Khan, it will be Nan. For those constantly searching for tranquil towns that haven’t yet popped up on the radars of Bangkokians, the Lanna capital is the new go-to destination. If you’re in town, apart from Wat Phumin...
La Monita Taqueria
Hands-down the best place to get a super flavorful quesadilla or fish taco (B70-80) and cozy up with a date or a large party of friends. Burritos and the steak torta are also excellent.
Sunrise Tacos
Forget the new branches at Emporium and Paragon (unless you just can’t)...
Terminal 21 Food Court (BK PICK!)
The vibe: Time may have taken the shine off your fave old food courts, like the classic at MBK. But the relatively new one at Terminal 21 offers cheap bites and a whole lot of fun thanks to the faux buildings that engage with their Pier 21 fishermen’s wharf...
