Phaya Thai just got its own trendy (meaning vaguely industrial) cafe, Usine. It serves mainly Thai food with tweaks such as a mango salsa served with bread (B80), herbal fried chicken with lemongrass and kaffir lime leaf (B140) and stir-fried beef with basil leaves and brown sticky rice (B110). There’s also a fairly green outdoor space and coffee shop, Quest, next door.
