Raising the bar
Guru, Richard Mcleish, Published on 24/01/2014
» Nested in Athenee Place near Phloenchit, the champagne-tinged lounge bar acts like a sun room annex for Athenee Tower that looms above. The glass walls and roof afford it the best of the afternoon light, and a cosy atmosphere in the evening. The slender room is adorned with a long bar (unsurprisingly) and is bookended by an outdoor section and service area from where the culinary goodness emerges. The story is that the existing bar was splashed with an orange colour, even before a certain champagne pairing had been considered, so it was an easy match that evolved naturally. The venue piggy-backs the success of coupled and famed French restaurant Le Beaulieu from praised haute cuisiner Chef Herve Frerard that was established in the same building just over a year ago. The crowd is made up of well-heeled locals and Le Beaulieu faithfuls. Leave your flip flops at home for this one.

Rocket science
Guru, Richard Mcleish, Published on 30/08/2013
» From the average to the cosy to the indulgent, Bangkok has had close to the full spectrum of brunch options to deliver your weekly fix of eggs and caffeine on lazy weekend mornings. The only thing missing it seemed was a venue that combined all the elements. That was until two months ago, when Rocket opened its doors in Sathon. And the owners have the measurements right, in perfect, Nasa-worthy proportions.

» When did Bangkok become so damn cool? Is the capital that's famous for its sleaze and grime finally cleaning up its act? Probably not quite yet, but Ari newcomer Fat Bird is encapsulating all things here and present with effortless ease after only a couple of months of operation, and it has had people chirping its praises ever since.

Charm of the Siam
Guru, Richard Mcleish, Published on 21/09/2012
» The audacity! Opening a hotel with such a grand name as The Siam seems awfully ambitious, we thought. It reminds us of the 80s band Europe, the group named for a continent that delivered a lot less than their title promised. Why didn't they just call the hotel "The Bomb" and be done with it?

Menage a Trois
Guru, Richard Mcleish, Published on 03/02/2012
» They say that good things come in threes; whoever they are. In the case of Triplets Brasserie, it's the three minds behind the no-fuss, "global cuisine" eatery on a back lot of Lang Suan. It's in a happy household, hence the "menage". So expect French culinary delights rather than any other you dirty minds.

Home KITCHEN
Guru, Richard Mcleish, Published on 23/03/2012
» What are the main ingredients of restaurant success in our fair capital? A romantic might say sugar and spice, while a cynic might suggest P and R. (For the slower readers, that spells PR.)
