Charm is one of the few places in town to bring Southeast Asian flare to the table in a comprehensive and authentic manner.

We don't normally bother with such trivial and arbitrary lists, but we're tired of these articles completely overlooking the benefits of Bangkok. When talking about our fair city, people often (and unfairly) think of only two things -- traffic and the blasphemous industry of which we don't speak because we're a Buddhist country so we pretend it doesn't exist. That has to end. This week, we give you 10 reasons why living in Bangkok should be everyone's dream.

» There's a sweet new trend in town, and guess what? It's calorie-free! The latest in fashion is about putting confectionery into clothing and accessories. The pieces are, of course, inedible, but some we've spotted nevertheless look good enough to be displayed in a dessert case.
