DibDib Kitchen & Bar

Warehouse 10, 02-108-4270
From the owners of longtime favorite Pla Dib in Ari comes DibDib, similarly decorated with raw cement only with a DJ station that resembles an orange shipping container sat in the middle of the space. The menu contains some familiar dishes, but there are plenty new ones to try like salmon tartar with white asparagus (B300) and Langkawi bivalves with sake (B300).

Kacha Kacha

Between Warehouse 9 and 10, 02-108-4242-3, 081-629-3799
You have to pick your time wisely to get a table at this popular teppanyaki and yakitori chain from Nagoya. That’s down to the welcoming vibe rolled out by the chefs (all from Japan) whose banter and showmanship light up the premises. Try the okonomiyaki (Japanese pizza, B270), while yakitori starts from B40 (B420 for 12 sticks) and sake from B200.

Brasserie 9

Warehouse 9, 02-108-4288. www.brasserie9.com
Run by the company behind Bangkok Air Catering, Brasserie 9 serves French cuisine with a few contemporary twists. The restaurant is decorated with a mix of prominent timbers, hanging lamps and a feature wall displaying an old-fashioned world map. A la carte dishes include marinated salmon tartar with avocado and egg (B320) or try the 6-course set dinner paired with new world wines coming up soon.

Kodang Talay

Warehouse 7, 02-108-4488, 081-832-5884
The name says it all. Kodang Talay gets the plum location right by the river where it serves seafood in the classic Thai-style. It’s easy to look past the simple decorations when you’re feasting on deep-fried seabass in fish sauce, au suan (pan-fried oyster with egg) and stir-fried Thai scallop with butter.

Fire & Dine Bar & Bistro

Warehouse 10, 02-108-4388
One of several bistro-style restaurants set to open here, Fire & Dine Bar & Bistro is owned by the team behind Wine Republic. So you’ll be familiar with the décor as well as dishes like crab meat with asparagus in white wine cream, tomato coulis, and caviar.
