Making a good meal start at home
B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 28/04/2019
» Why do people in Bangkok rely mostly on food from vendors or restaurants? There are multiple answers to this. Some spend most of their time on the road. Cooking is not allowed in some apartments and condominiums. Hoarding ingredients like meat and vegetables is too complicated for some. Others have no cooking experience. Or believe it's a waste of time. Some think it costs more to cook at home than dining out.

Eating Amid The Great Outdoors
B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 17/12/2017
» I may not have to explain how much fun it is to picnic. When asking family members or your loved ones to go on a picnic, chances are everybody would say yes. Organising a picnic trip requires finding (sometimes booking) a scenic spot and preparing food and drinks for your outdoor dining. This might be a little extra work, but it's worth it.

Clean up in kitchen with versatile fruit
B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 12/11/2017
» Growing your own backyard vegetable garden is great. One thing you should definitely have on hand is kaffir lime. It has that sour yet refreshing taste that makes it a favourite in Thai kitchens. Kaffir lime is no inferior species to lime -- it can actually be even more versatile. But it's not the only fruit or vegetable worthy of belonging in your garden.

What's cooking for breakfast?
B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 08/01/2017
» Everyone knows that breakfast is an important meal, but when looked at closely, it is as loaded with cultural significance as it is with vitamins and nutrients to fuel the coming day. It can provide a wealth of detailed information on the local environment, on the historical era in which it is or was eaten, the kind of work done by and the social status of the family who prepare and eat it, and the prevailing awareness of the relationship between food and good health.

Selling points

» In making any type of business investment, the most important thing to consider is your customer base. This can be tricky as you have to guess what your target group wants.

A recipe for harmony on the streets of Bangkok
B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 28/05/2017
» When the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) announced its decision to clear vendors from the city's streets, they didn't present a clear-cut plan for the procedure.

If memory serves
B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 14/05/2017
» Something strange happens to people who have been around for some time and adopted a certain taste for the past. At times, it could be so bad that may make them either nostalgic or fussy -- maybe both at the same time. They can get depressed thinking about the fact that nowadays Thai food doesn't taste the same as it used to. Those bygone dishes may look the same, perhaps slightly different, but they simply don't taste the same. Such a disappointment is hard to swallow.

Wat's the centre of Mon tradition
B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 10/04/2016
» There are only three days left until Songkran, a festival that is celebrated throughout Thailand, but that is especially significant for the Mon community. The special importance it has for the Mon may have to do with the strictness of their Buddhist belief and the firmness with which they have maintained their cultural traditions. When Songkran arrives they celebrate it in a way that preserves the original character and meaning of the festival, creating an event that we can admire or, better, take part in.

Sushi on a roll
B Magazine, Suthon Sukphisit, Published on 04/09/2016
» Sushi, the Japanese rolled rice favourite, has made itself completely at home in Thailand. It has quickly acquired the status of a younger sibling of sukiyaki, which arrived here more than 50 years ago. Over half a century, sukiyaki has adapted to local preferences and become completely naturalised in Thailand, now having little in common with the original Japanese dish.
