The venerated house of pancakes

» <b>The Setting:</b> The International House of Pancakes, or IHOP as it's most commonly known, has been a beloved breakfast staple in the good ol' US of A since 1958. While it does have the word "international" in its name, it was only a few weeks ago that the American breakfast chain finally opened its first store here in Bangkok. Located on the ground floor of Siam Paragon, IHOP sits right over the small artificial pond. Seating in the current location is limited, but it's planning to open up a bigger space up on the fourth floor by the end of the year. Because of this, it's best if you get there early. Besides, the menu is a breakfast menu. Actually, since Paragon opens at 10am, let's just say that it's perfect for brunch. You know what, we take it all back. Pancakes are perfect any time of the day, whether it be breakfast, lunch, dinner, or when you wake up at 3am in the morning feeling hungry. IHOP won't be open then, though.
The new kids on the block

» Bangkok is a huge and sprawling city with sights and wonders that captivate the tourist and resident alike. And there are some equally odd spots that would catch the interest of... well, some. The Big Mango is huge -- and it's not called the "Big" Mango for nothing, you know. There are places opening up all the time that give Bangkokians an inexhaustible list of things to do or places to visit. This week, we here at Guru give you six new places that have recently opened their doors to the public. Pay ‘em a visit, why don't you?
