Unpretentiously swank

» Suan Phlu has always been a street food hub, though old-time expats may remember it as being the place for the Immigration Department. With the relocation of the department and development, the road has gone a bit more upmarket with cute coffee shops, bakeries, bars and fine dining establishments having set up shop, along with modern condos.
A modern Roman Holiday

» While a lot has changed at this favourite neighbourhood joint, not much has changed. Entering the warmly-light Roman trattoria, you may notice the new wall art, the dry ager and the salad and charcuterie marble table out front, which doubles up as a fresh pasta-making table during the day. The kitchen has been brought out front to the open, and accommodates the solo or couple diners who like sitting at the "chef's table" watching their food being prepared. This seating also provides a tete-a-tete with new head chef, Miro Mattalia.
50 shades of cheese

» Blink and you'll miss it! The entrance to Ekamai 16 is rather small, narrow and the street sign is barely visible among Bangkok's iconic wire tangle. But what it leads to is a new restaurant serving good old American fare, complete with craft beers -- The Fat Tap. The casual setting in a townhouse is all wood, which is a step up from owner Matthew Fischer's very popular Fatty's Bar and Diner on Din Daeng. The Fat Tap has the cosy feel of a hip hostel, minus the backpackers, with long wooden benches softened by throw pillows. Classic tracks from yesteryear blast in the background and add more character compared to the other pricey craft beer places found in the area.
