The Commons is one of them new-fangled, hip, modern “community spaces” that are just so on trend and hipstery that I WANT to not like them, but how can I not like a place that houses mini-versions of all the best quality local eats an shops and provides functional, multi-use group gathering spaces that fosters… Continue reading Bangkok Restaurant Review: The Commons / Roots Coffee
Thonglo is lousy with amazing coffee shops like one of my all-time favorites Rocket Coffeebar S.49 and D’Ark, so it’s no surprise that when I make it to Sukhumvit Soi 49 I don’t tend to make it as far down as Casa Lapin x49. However, after a lovely ladies brunch at Tribeca Restobar we… Continue reading Bangkok Cafe Review: Casa Lapin x49
A productive Sunday needs a perfect cafe. One with plenty of workspaces with power outlets, WiFi, good music, strong coffee, an inspiring environment, and friendly staff. This afternoon Blue Dye Cafe knocked it out of the park. I got some serious power work done while sipping on a delicious Caramel Latte… Continue reading Bangkok Cafe Review: Blue Dye Cafe
Hey Soi 49 – Stop It. Why are there so many amazing places clustered *literally* on top of each other? Above D’Ark Coffee Shop is a Secret Garden Spa & Cafe which is simply a magical place. I actually brought my Fuji Finepix along thinking I might snap a couple of non-iPhone quality pictures,… Continue reading Bangkok Cafe Review: Organika Secret Garden
After a day of enjoying delightful cafes, I was all cafe-ed out (I know, I didn’t think that was possible either) and headed home. On my way to the BTS, I walked by Dandelion and was stopped dead in my tracks by a sign advertising Butter Beer. This was impossible to resist along… Continue reading Bangkok Cafe Review: Dandelion
I needed a healthy and productive Saturday so I headed down to Chong Nonsi with my laptop to find Not Just Another Cup cafe. I was delighted by the open, modern, and sunshine-filled space and settled in to a table by the window. I had come with a dish in mind after… Continue reading Bangkok Restaurant Review: Not Just Another Cup
My favorite Bangkok coffee shop chain Rocket has a brand new location in my favorite part of town: Thong Lo! As you walk down S 55 it’s hard to miss the clean, hip Rocket aesthetic on your right. If the courtyard doesn’t catch your eye, then the hipsters doing elaborate photo shoots will.… Continue reading Bangkok Cafe Review: Rocket X 72 Courtyard
It’s hard to talk about brunch in Bangkok without hearing the name “Dexter”, so when I saw that the Bangkok Young Expats Meetup group meets here regularly it seemed like a great opportunity to give it a try and to meet some new people. I made my way down to Sathorn and found a modern,… Continue reading Bangkok Restaurant Review: Dexter Cafe & Bar
I am absolutely enamored with Rocket Coffeebar S.49, so decided to check-out their Siwilai Rocket location located on the 5th Floor of Central Embassy. This Sapparot Deconstructed Dessert was a complete work of art. The rolls are pineapple and lime mousses served with roast coconut ice cream on a bed of spongey cake… Continue reading Bangkok Cafe Review: Siwilai Rocket Coffeebar
There are several brunch options on my to-try list in Phloen Chit, but this morning I finally gave in to the Siren’s call of their Pumpkin Chocolate pie and headed to Cafe Tartine. It’s a delightful little French Patisserie style. Fancy enough to feel delightful, yet casual enough not to feel too stuffy.… Continue reading Bangkok Restaurant Review: Cafe Tartine
