  This Lady Brett is beaming

  Guru, Catherine Faulder, Published on 01/04/2016

  » Serenely tucked away above road level at 72 Courtyard is the new instalment of Lady Brett, the mighty Thong Lor rendition. Named after the character of Lady Brett Ashley, the twice-divorced Englishwoman who had numerous love affairs in Ernest Hemingway's 1926 novel The Sun Also Rises, this new joint certainly makes you feel like you're stepping into a different era. Perhaps a 1920s Parisian gentleman's cozy quarters or even the living room of a country manor, if you will.

  All about that jazz and glitter

  Guru, Catherine Faulder, Published on 29/04/2016

  » The second volume of The Iron Faries' fairytale is upon us. We all know how much of an impact the first bar and restaurant had on Bangkok's nightlife; Thong Lor has never been the same. The Iron Fairies Dragonfly at Central Eastville is definitely going to be another game changer, methinks. It may seem far out but hey, there's more to Bangkok than Thong Lor.

  Mad about Marcel

  Guru, Catherine Faulder, Published on 22/07/2016

  » You're stepping into the cozy abode of a Parisian hipster when you enter Marcel. The black and white chequered floor, the French blue walls, the light wooden tables and the sound of Prince all align together nicely, inviting you to stay. Books and newspapers line the bottom of the staircase, as do Polaroid photos of the restaurant's regular attendees, Marcel's extended family. This family has grown bigger in the last year since its opening.

  It takes two Hombres to Touché

  Guru, Catherine Faulder, Published on 19/08/2016

  » <B>The Setting</B>: Far from what you'd expect from a Mexican restaurant, we're sure. Touché Hombre combines authentic Mexican food with flavours of American pop culture. Expect West Coast American hip hop music, electric red light vibes and walls draped with murals of famous rappers in the downstairs section. The drinks menu looks like the bible of the antichrist. You can choose to have your cocktail poured from a chicken jug, which dare we say, is more Mexicana than Americano.

  Collect/saves the day

  Guru, Catherine Faulder, Published on 09/09/2016

  » Jay Sriyuksiri leads quite an interesting and full-on life. He's a part-time house DJ that goes by the name Sarayu, holding a residency at Beam and his newly founded night, UNST (UNST UNST); he's been "trying" to produce music for over a year now; he works with his family business like a good boy most of the time and he has also been involved with something a lot more interesting as of late. A project called Collect/Save, something he set up with his friends, aimed at helping Bangkok's local electronic music community become more knowledgeable in what matters to them most — music — through a series of workshops and production master classes led by industry experts and like-minded individuals.
