Beam me up!

» Interest in extraterrestrial things (and beings) make a comeback to the Thai collective consciousness, thanks to asteroid 2006 QQ23 flying by and a viral video in which a local man, who claims to be a medium of Pluto God, warns humanity of 2020 doomsday in an alien tongue. This got us thinking about the local interest in UFOs and aliens, and how Thailand is linked to alien stories in a way that you may not be aware of. We aren't saying we believe in Pluto God or trying to convince you one way or another but there are many pieces of evidence (of varying degrees of credibility) of alleged alien visits to the Land Of Smiles and they are too fascinating not to share.
Dining in chemistry

» Not every restaurant creates such an impression on arrival. In the case of the second branch of ABC Essence in Eatery, your eyes may be drawn to work out all the dashing details in its décor. The white installation made of hexagonal patterns at the entrance is the first thing to grab your attention. The two gleaming white bars facing the outside at the front are designed for those who want to grab a cup of joe or a sandwich while people-watching. A few steps further in are hexagonal podiums, displaying cookies and boxes of micro greens, as if they are artefacts. One of the walls is adorned with copper mirrors from floor to ceiling, visually doubling the space. This indoor dining area with marble flooring feels spacious, airy and modern. But why so many hexagons, you ask? Well, they represent the structural formula of chemical compounds and, of course, are the essence of food.
