» The Mall Group has begun charging B1 for each plastic bag to coincide with the International Plastic Bag Free Day on Jul 3. Shoppers at The Mall, Emporium, EmQuartier and Siam Paragon are being encouraged to bring their own bags for all their shopping needs. It's a small but significant step towards the city's progress in reducing the use of plastic like many other places in Thailand. Even Central Group has stopped handing out plastic bags to shoppers. Additionally, they will not provide plastic bags on the 1st, 4th and 16th of every month reminding shoppers to bring in their reusable bags.

"Eating healthy" is a relative term too, but get specific and say "vegan" and some people may get turned off quickly. For a meat-eater like me, vegan food was something that I had very little interest in trying but after trying Nourish Cafe Bangkok I'm inclined to start considering eating vegan for some of my meals.

» <b>The Setting:</b> When talking about high altitude dining, readers should be informed that there's a new kid on the Sukhumvit block.

Décor-wise, Mojjo goes for a classic and spacious feel, with an added dash of Latin flair. The whole interior oozes class and style, befitting the occasion of a sophisticated dinner or after-work unwinding. You can watch the twilight sky from air-conditioned comfort through the tall floor-to-ceiling glass windows. Or enjoy an unfiltered view and breeze at the outdoor black-and-white checkered area.
