» The Setting: Oh to live as a Parisian! With the wonderful food, beautiful streets and impeccable style, it's easy to understand why Paris is a dream destination for many. However, L'Appart by Sofitel Bangkok Sukhumvit brings that vibe right to Bangkok.
A flavourful trek to new heights

» Imagine having appetisers in one setting, the main course in another and desserts in a third. Sounds like quite an adventurous night, right? Centara Grand at CentralWorld is offering such a night featuring three different restaurants for their progressive dinner special: UNO MAS, Red Sky and CRU Champagne Bar. As you progress through the meal, you go up in height as well. Starting on the 54th floor, each course takes you a few floors up. The ambience for all of the restaurants is fancy and classy whilst providing you with excellent views of Bangkok's skyline. The progressive dinner, priced at B2,999++ per person, allows you to experience all three restaurants in one night. It's guaranteed that you'll be able to take amazing photographs, but your Instagram feed shouldn't be the only thing satisfied.
Charoen cool

» We've all been through the traffic jams, the unbearable heat and the same old crowded shopping malls of Bangkok. Sure, they're always busy and there is always lots to do -- but city life can be as draining as it is exciting. Sometimes you just need to get away from all the congestion. And what better way to escape than a trip down to the river? The riverside along Charoen Krung Road is riddled with different art spaces and centres, some of which have been around for a while and others that are just opening up. We decided to take an excursion to six different spaces that offer art, music and even opportunities for a swim, all within walking distance from the river.
Setting sail

» Bangkok has its charms, and there have been plenty of people enticed by this city. Yuval Schwok is one of them. Having grown up in Paris with a liberal Jewish background, Yuval always had a strong desire to travel and seek adventure. He accidentally arrived in Bangkok 14 years ago, and never quite left as he has now lived here for 12 years. It is quite fitting then that his first project was called The Overstay — a hostel, music venue and creative space all in one offering more than a place to stay for travellers and visitors. But for the past three years, Yuval has also been developing a new project called Bangkok Island, a boat that is set to be a prime venue for music and art. He hopes for it to not be like any other boat cruise, but rather a destination for artists and live music. We had a chat with The Overstay's founder about his new project, the challenges he has encountered and his take on the event scene in Bangkok.
