Heading over to Koh Tao? Don't miss this new beachside Italian bistro, where an easygoing tropical-resort vibe meets with a classic menu of pizzas, pastas and antipasti. Or drop by for breakfast, when they put on a spread of freshly-baked pastries with views of the palm-lined sand.
The buzz: 72 Courtyard’s Hopeland has been transformed into a very casual wine bar that serves up carb-loaded dishes designed by Bunker’s former chef, Arnie Marcella.
The decor: A mix of wood, concrete, neon signage and hanging bulbs makes for a rustic-industrial feel, all framed on one side by a...
