Revelations in Convent
Life, Vanniya Sriangura, Published on 19/01/2018
» Soi Convent has a strange pull. Crawling with office workers by day, it welcomes drinkers and diners by night. At one end is a cloistered convent protected by high walls, at the other a hospital and a church, and in between a motley selection of an Irish pub, street stalls, cafés, bars, dessert shops, dining venues, a som tam joint and an all-girls school. Flanked by the gaudy lights of Patpong and the business-minded Sathorn, the 800m soi in the busy financial district has a discreet but unfailing, perennial charm.

» The setting: Meat lovers rejoice, there is a new meat-centric restaurant in town. The Meatchop is one of the latest entries in Sala Daeng Soi 1, which is already home to many eateries in the area. Recognisable by its all-black, retro-inspired front, the restaurant's glass-framed door entrance sits snugly between two wide, cylindrical windows. Similar to a butcher shop, the left side displays the restaurant's deli section with its selection of imported cold cuts to entice diners to have a taste of their specially-selected meats and cheeses from around the world. While there are seats and tables outside, you'd miss the lively atmosphere inside.
