Samui's extreme escape
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 07/04/2017
» Some holidays should be spent being active and exploring new places, while others should be reserved for extreme relaxing and doing absolutely nothing. If you're after the latter, there's no need to look any further than here.
Tea for me (and you, maybe)
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 11/11/2016
» Afternoon tea in Bangkok often brings to mind posh hotels, an uptight atmosphere and a price tag that could have easily bought you three decent meals. And as decadent as they come, sadly not many are able to replicate the ambiance of classic British tea houses, nor have they found a remedy for the plague of crappy clotted cream and bland sandwiches.
Cool finds in Chiang Mai
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 11/11/2016
» We're not just about the "new". We also dig the cool, the fun, the funky and all things slightly hidden from plain sight. So we did a little detour, stepping into one or two "just-opened" venues and we also honed in on some less-discovered (but totally awesome) places. We tried, we tested and we even got a bit lost trying to find some of these hidden gems. So without further ado, dear readers, here are our top Chiang Mai picks for this year's winter season.

» Planning an itinerary for a modern-day traveller is no easy feat. One minute they expect to be thrilled and swept off their feet with adrenaline-filled activities and in the next, they expect to be lying in the sun doing absolutely nothing, exerting minimal energy, deciding which cocktail to have next or reapplying sun cream.

» Lo and behold, brunching is still proving to be a popular pastime for Bangkokians.
Dining-in directory
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 19/09/2014
» Spoiler alert: It’s rainy season; it’s chucking down like there has been a drought for two years and the traffic is just as painful to watch as it is to be stuck in. The chances of leaving the office by car and actually making it to dinner at 7pm on the dot is close to zero. And unless the new PM decides to add cars to his next ban list (along with shisha/hookah), commuting in Bangkok city is a painful experience that one must simply suck up and face (yes, weekends included). So to make life a little easier, and to help you continue to have the best eating experiences you’ve been accustomed to, we’ve compiled a list of places that deliver culinary treats and drinks for every occasion.
Hitting the 30s
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 15/08/2014
» Three sois in the heart of town have filled up with so many new restaurants and cafes we decided to designate it a foodie zone. It could be the fact that there’s no more space on Sukhumvit Soi 31 (if there was a Thai version of Monopoly, this would be Park Lane) and with Appia, Bella Napoli and Isao reigning supreme, diners can be seen queuing for dinner at ridiculous hours like 4:30pm. So what are new restaurants to do? Scooch down a couple of sois, it seems. We’ve compiled a list of new eateries in Sukhumvit Sois 31, 33 and 39 so you’ll be able to plan your whole day and night around this area and avoid having to curse and honk your horn at the non-moving traffic. Hurry on down before everyone decides to migrate to Sukhumvit Soi 41.
