The power of attraction

» K-pop stans and Blinks across the world were sent into a frenzy when Blackpink's Lisa released her solo debut album, Lalisa, a few weeks ago. The internet quickly fell in love with its addictive beat and rhythm, but the accompanying music video featured more than just tantalising visuals drenched in neon lights -- it featured the Buri Ram native in a traditional Thai headdress and the Prasat Hin Phanom Rung.
Come fly with me

» Among the many things that we've lost during this pandemic, the ability to get on a plane on a whim and fancy has been the biggest. If you've ever been to Suvarnabhumi International Airport in the past months to just walk around with a trolley to remind yourself what it feels like waiting for your flight (no? just me then?), then you'll know that the airport is a shadow of its former self. Even if you did manage to book a flight, it involves so much paperwork and costs so much, coupled with the fear of catching the virus, it's not worth it unless in an emergency.
Casually Italian

» When people mention Italian dining, there might be a certain image that comes to mind: perhaps it's a little hi-so, maybe even fine dining and something that's saved for a special meal where you dress up all nice. Gigi wants to do the complete opposite.
App-solutely smooth

» We at Guru know we're snarky about Bangkok at times -- OK, most of the time -- but like any other city, there are things we hate about it and there are things we love about it.

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.
A little wining and a little dining
Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 13/09/2019
» 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.
Hakuna Matata

» Phuket has long been a beach getaway for locals and tourists, and for good reason. Especially if you're a Bangkokian like me, who can resist a quick weekend getaway complete with great sights, mouth-watering food and fantastic beaches -- all of which can be reached within an hour's flight? Of course, while Phuket is a great destination, there's more aspects to a great trip that have to be planned out and that could be a little stressful. Soon enough, you'll find yourself having a headache just trying to sort out details for a vacay and once you finally do go on the trip, you start wondering whether all that stress (and the money you spent, which made your bank account run dry) was even worth it. Vacays and getaways should be stress-free, enjoyable and despite being perhaps a little pricey, still worth every single dime you spend. Enter Twinpalms MontAzure, your next beach destination. Seriously, this is your next vacay. It's not a suggestion and you'll see why.
