Today a friend asked me for a bar recommendation in Bangkok. After living in BKK for one and half years I covered a lot of ground in that department, so I threw together a quick list of my favorites. Here are my 2 cents on the Best Bars of Bangkok (click the links to… Continue reading My Favorite Bars in Bangkok
Roast is simply one of my favorite brunch options in Bangkok, so to start my birthday I could think of nothing I would like to do more than celebrate with one of my dearest friends at the location in The Commons. To my delight, we were able to get a table right away! On a… Continue reading Bangkok Restaurant Review: Roast at The Commons
Search for “bars in Bangkok” and no matter what the list, Iron Fairies will be on it. And while a little over exposed and over saturated, I really love it. The labyrinth like stairs, the hidden enclosures, the walls full of mini vials of fairy dust*… This bar is my first introduction into the magical,… Continue reading Bangkok Bar Review: The Iron Fairies
Did you know that the same people behind one of the best speakeasies in Bangkok Q&A Bar have yet another secret bar? Well, secret’s out. Down a nondescript alley in Ekkamai is a secret, magical, alcohol wonderland. Just as fabulous as Q&A in every way, but with a distinctly different vibe. Instead of classy, vintage railway… Continue reading Bangkok Bar Review: Sugar Ray, You’ve Just Been Poisoned
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

Today, some friends… Continue reading Bangkok Restaurant Review: Farm to Table Cafe
Sporting a little bit of a hangover from a Friday night visit to The Speakeasy at Hotel Muse, I needed a recovery brunch, so met up with two of my fabulous lady friends (and my friend’s adorable toddler) at Tribeca Restobar in Thonglo. Honestly, I’d kind of been avoiding this place even… Continue reading Bangkok Restaurant Review: TriBeCa Restobar
Some people refer to Track 17 as a “speakeasy”, but given that the doorway has some signage I personally do not consider it one. That said, it is fairly inconspicuous, tucked into a corner of the second floor of The Commons and you aren’t likely to notice it if you aren’t looking for it. Walking… Continue reading Bangkok Bar Review: Track 17 at The Commons
My friends live in the Chong Nonsi neighborhood of Silom and introduced me to their neighborhood haunt Le Cafe des Stagiaires. The multiple story building is home to the main bar on the ground floor as well as a restaurant and living quarters for the interns (les stagiaires). Mostly from France, the bar offers young… Continue reading Bangkok Bar Review: Le Cafe des Stagiaires
