The (sand)wiching hour

» It eludes me why many think sandwiches can't be a meal. Perhaps it's because the sandwiches we know are the ones bought at a convenience store, which have been refrigerated, then squished under a toaster for a maximum of three minutes and voila, you've got yourself a "sandwich" with barely anything in between. Notice the quotation marks? These "sandwiches" are a sorry excuse of a "sandwich". Fortunately, Bangkok is home to a number of places that does sandwiches properly -- sandwiches that will not just have you filled and satisfied but also have you coming back for more. If you want to get away from the usual rice and noodles, it may be time to jump on the bread wagon. Here are a few of the best sandwich places around the city.
Around the clock

» Imagine this scenario: it's late at night -- really late at night. It's so late that even the street food vendors have gone to bed. You're not sleepy. In fact, you actually don't want to sleep.
Lick good

» In the day and age of convenience and apps, it's so easy to get everything with just a simple click, so much so that perhaps the only thing we complain about now is the fact that we have to walk outside to meet the delivery guy. Not that we need anymore reason to stay inside (as if an introvert like me is trying to find reasons to go out and socialise), Lick BKK could probably be another incentive to simply lock yourself in a room as you chow down on their signature offering -- burgers. And who doesn't love being antisocial while scarfing down a good burger anyway?

» RPG lootshooters have been a staple of gaming for the past few years now. Despite being common, some games are a hit and miss. One of the few games that have constantly hit the mark, however, is Borderlands and with the third entry in the franchise, everyone is anxious to see whether this game will exceed expectations. So does it?
Addictive fluffiness

» Doughnuts are a bit of a hit and miss. It sometimes depends on where you buy your doughnuts from but mostly it's how they are made that determines whether you're going to be enjoying it or not. Heck, even established doughnut places can botch it at times by going off the rails with weird flavours. This is probably why Kinu decided to make straight-up simple doughnuts for everyone to enjoy.
Daniel in the music den

» Messy hair, baggy shirts and a 90s vibe all around, Daniel Didyasarin seems like your typical half-Thai, half-American schoolboy with vintage tendencies. You might pass him on the sidewalk without a second thought, but this fresh-faced young man is a promising artist on the rise in Thailand's music scene. Daniel is a member of the bands Penny Time and City Plant, but since those two bands are currently on a break (hopefully not the Ross and Rachel kind), he's kept busy and released his first solo album Bedroom, not to mention a couple of EPs and singles, as well. You get the chance to hear him live on Sept 22 at Siri House. Guru sat down and talked to the burgeoning young artist.
A little wining and a little dining

» Within Thong Lor 13 lies 13 Wine & Dine, aptly named due to the soi it's located in, as well as the fact that it was founded by 13 people who are passionate about food and wine. The dimly lit resto, which gives off seriously romantic vibes, is designed with a touch of subtle elegance in sleek black, almost pulling off a fine dining sort of atmosphere though they don't consider themselves fine dining. The bar on the first floor is beautifully lit and bathed in light while the second floor offers a quieter and private dining area, all while instrumental versions of songs from legendary bands like The Eagles fill the air. Now that the scene is set, onto the food.
