The rice president
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 07/04/2017
» <b>The setting:</b> Arroz is situated in a dainty house on the lower end of the leafy street of Soi 53. A quiet residential area that's been asking for an eatery that serves up something other than pizza and sushi.
The spaces between us
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 07/04/2017
» No doubt, Bangkok has its fair share of issues that hover over the urban landscape. From developers chasing out communities to make way for even more condominiums to the lack of greenery -- and don't get us started on the state of footpaths and the Jackson Pollock-inspired electrical wires we have proudly exhibiting all around town -- there's clearly a lot for our eyes to take in.
A southern pearl with personality

» Forget the usual beach huts and bland hotel buildings you've seen on your previous visits to Phuket. Instead, imagine an eye-popping destination set on a lush and tranquil beachfront where the sand stretches for miles and the sea is made up of 20 different shades of blue. Welcome to The Slate.
I beg your parden

» If you weren't sold on the two magic words parfait parlor, I don't know what your stomach is made of because mine was ready at the doors two minutes before its opening hours.
Hunting for rice bowls
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 17/02/2017
» For those of you familiar with poke, you'll know that this rice bowl trend has been fast and hard-hitting the East and West Coast of the US, as well as Australia. It's no surprise that this healthy option is quickly becoming the next big thing. After all -- what with the rise of clean-eating and the guilt-trips that we continue to inflict on ourselves every time we see those skinny b**ches in yoga pants -- this certainly makes sense.
A serious snack-fest to consider
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 27/01/2017
» <b>The setting:</b> Say hello to the recent F&B addition to the rooftop of The Commons that will have you migrating from the ever so popular Market on the ground floor all the way up to the top.
Lunch like you mean it
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 09/12/2016
» As the end of the year approaches, we're constantly on the lookout for the perfect dining venue for eating out with friends and colleagues to celebrate making it through another year without getting fired. Hooray!
Snitching on schnitzel's
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 02/12/2016
» <b>The setting:</b> Alright, alright, we know what you were thinking when you saw the name. But no, this most definitely is not a German restaurant. And yes, although they do serve up pork schnitzel and sauerkraut, other delicacies like pork knuckle and stollen cakes are not on the menu. Located at the quiet end of Soi 38, this dainty and unassuming restaurant could have been mistaken for a small coffee shop. Step inside and the rustic décor -- with bare brick walls, a vintage collection of bric-a-bracs and collectibles from the owner's previous residence in the USA make up a warm, casual and inviting diner perfect for those days when you have a hankering for American-style comfort food.
Of art and alchemy

» If there's anybody in Bangkok who knows how to make a good cocktail, it's Vesper. Testament to this is not only the seemingly obvious, that they achieved 17th place in Asia's 50 Best Bars 2016, but the fact that they almost always find themselves completely packed out on a Tuesday night.
Brunch on the bright side
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 25/11/2016
» Goodbye Rocket Coffeebar. Hello Siwilai Cafe. Although the swanky spot on the 5th Floor of Central Embassy hasn't exactly shed its skin -- having kept the cool interiors and casual vibe -- it has however, been given a new life in the kitchen.
