The buzz: There are two types of Bangkokians. Those who have dined at Sorn, the new 20-seat southern Thai restaurant from Baan Ice founder Supaksorn Jongsiri, and those who haven't. Supaksorn's five-course sharing menus are causing a hi-so sensation thanks to bold flavors, traditional techniques—...
Sri Trat is in. A success. Even weeknights, your reservation might get turned away if it’s not made early enough. It’s luxurious rooms of azure, button-backed leather sofas and louvered wooden panels welcome a buzzy, high-end crowd to dine on recipes drawn from Thailand’s eastern provinces. It’s a...
Unlike other "work-friendly" cafes, Storyline Bangkok offers both the right ambiance and space to get down to business.
Centrally located just off Sukhumvit, the cafe boasts cozy single and group tables on the second floor, plus an open-air balcony for when you need some fresh air. The whole place...
Unlike its neighbor, the cool, minimalist Ryoku by Boy Japanese salon, Sumibi Yakiniku Kura has little to entice people inside, other than a couple of barely noticeable signs showing off its prized Japanese beef. Enter and you’ll find the two-story restaurant a fairly sedate affair: plain dark gray...

From the owners of one of our favorite bike-themed burger spots, Sweet Pista, comes the latest kakigori hotspot in town.
Located in front of the original Sweet Pista, beside much-loved custom jean shop Viapiana, Sweet Pista Little Cafe dishes out kakigori—that's Japanese-style shaved ice with...
Southeast Asian food and malls rarely mix. Jazz the food up and Bangkokians will turn up their nose at your fusion. Do a basic Thai restaurant and people will feel they’re better off eating in their soi. That’s why this clever combination of Vietnamese, Lao and Thai dishes is hitting a sweet spot...
Blessed with a large Japanese community, Bangkok has no shortage of restaurants that bear an almost perfect resemblance to what you’d find in Japan. Taishusakaba Torayoshi is such a place: a barebones tavern (izakaya) where drinking and eating are equally important—and décor really isn’t. It’s as...
