Places like Jua are the reason why Charoenkrung held the title as “Bangkok’s hippest street” for the better part of 2017. It’s upmarket but wallet-friendly; concise but creative; artsy and effortlessly cool. In other words, it hits a sweet spot that most restaurants miss.

The buzz: Despite the sheer avalanche of the Korean cuisine craze in Bangkok, the lack of Korean fine-dining restaurants comes as a bit of a surprise.

Kacha Kacha, the Nagoya-imported teppanyaki hut at riverside mall Asiatique, fits the cliché of a restaurant at a tourist destination: below-average food at over-inflated prices. While Asiatique draws in tourists from all over the world, it’s perhaps telling that this eatery is frequented almost...
The seed for Sathorn’s new bean-to-bar chocolate cafe, Kad Kokoa, sprouted when founders, Nuttaya and Panitchin Chunhasawatikul, fell in love with a beautiful piece of land in northern Thailand.
After studying the art of bean grading in the U.S., they began to grow cacao at their own private estate...
This retro restaurant is all about Chiang Rai-style kanomjeen (rice vermicelli), which means thicker curries and the added potency of sun-dried fermented bean sheets. The place itself is also a delight, set in a traditional wooden house filled with fabrics and other old-school markers. Other local...
