  The next level

  Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 11/07/2014

  » Dean & Deluca has taken its offerings to the next level (literally) by recently introducing a new zone and menu. Opened on Jun 20, The Mezzanine is for those who want finer fare with a side of table service. Even before reaching this new zone on the mezzanine level (obviously, as the name suggests), your appetite will probably already be building up from walking past the gourmet market, cafe corner, pizza counter and more on the ground floor. The Mezzanine offers a more grown-up atmosphere in contrast to the airy and spacious feel of downstairs. With dim lighting and marble top tables, this new space should fit an evening of after-work unwinding in style for Silom and Sathon execs or an eye-locking dinner.

  » <b>The setting</b>: They say don't judge a book by its cover. I say don't judge a restaurant by its name. Despite being called Fortune Cookie, this restaurant doesn't serve the American-Chinese food you would expect. But that's not such bad news. This recently opened Chinese restaurant serves the type of cuisine you'd find in Shanghai or the province of Sichuan, and it does it very well too.

  You're just a big kid!

  » It's okay to be a kid every now and then. By that, we don't mean asking your parents for permission to go out, throwing a tantrum when you don't get what you want or picking your nose and eating the booger either. Eww.
