    Young at heart

    Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 19/09/2014

    » Contrary to the name, Oldman Cafe is a hip new hangout on the old side of Bangkok. Now, we know it’ll take more than good coffee and decent food to persuade city dwellers to leave the 10110 postcode. So you’ll be glad to know that the cafe is certainly worth the drive to the other side, where the people are so easygoing that even the fear of car towing or clamping doesn’t apply to them. The five-month-old cafe has already acquired loyal customers of all ages including families residing in the area as well as hipsters and young urbanites looking for a casual hangout. The owners’ passion for interior and graphic design is apparent throughout the restaurant, which is decorated with dark hues, leather sofas and vintage knick-knacks like typewriters and microphones from the 50s. There’s even a Harley-Davidson parked out front to remind you that the place serves up a good cup of coffee with a side of old school soul.

    Guru, Richard Mcleish, Published on 19/09/2014

    » Nestled at the front of Groove upstairs, this hunting lodge-themed restaurant is starting to garner plenty of attention in the area with some pretty stiff eating competition. To pull off the concept, they have gone all out with the decor to good effect, which is fun enough to dispel the mall feel that other venues in the precinct suffer from. It’s easily located by the iconic grizzly bear that towers over the entrance, instantly confirming the hunting tendencies of the place. The expansive premises has enough room for about 80 diners inside, which can stretch to over 100 with the outdoor area. Hang up your rifle on entry as you slink onto a bar stool after a solid morning’s hunting. The crowd is a steady stream of cool kids that all seem to know each other — friends of friends of friends, etc — Bangkok-style.
