Getting Food at Bangkok Malls in 2021
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 06/08/2021
» On Sunday, the Centre of Covid-19 Situation Administration (CCSA) announced 29 provinces as dark red zones, up from the previous 13, along with strict measures to control the spread. Bangkok is, of course, a dark red zone and most of the prohibitions and temporary closures of certain venues are understandable. One prohibition, in particular, at the time of going to print has left me (and many others) scratching their heads.
Dealing With A Covid-19 Side Effect
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 22/01/2021
» One side effect of the Covid-19 pandemic that you may have overlooked (besides amassing a vast collection of hand sanitisers and exposing govt inefficiency -- kapow!) is more waste, especially plastic. Inevitably, it is exacerbated by our appetite for food delivery while we're WFH during this quasi-lockdown. The first wave saw an increase of plastic waste by 60% in Bangkok due to the higher demand for food delivery as estimated by Thailand Environment Institute in May last year. Thailand Research Development Insitute also claimed that one such order can contain up to seven pieces of plastic waste (so opt-out of utensils when you order please).

Let's do lunch
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 28/08/2015
» Lunch doesn’t have to mean quick stop at noodle shophouse, the same old offerings at your office canteen or eating at your desk (and inviting ants to be your new colleagues in the process). Even if you’re not an office worker, you deserve a proper afternoon break -- and the occasional two-hour lunch every now and then never hurt anybody. So why not elevate your lunch experience to a new level? This week, we scan the city for places where you can raise your lunch game.
