Breaking tradition
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 15/07/2016
» Just when you think the golden soi has had enough of Japanese eateries -- who are we kidding, Thong Lor will never get over its obsession with sushi. Be it the traditional omakase-style or the fusion places where the chefs try to stuff as many artery-clogging ingredients as possible into a roll. Oh yeah, goose liver, fatty wagyu beef, caviar -- they're not trying to kill you or anything. One thing is for certain; if you've got raw fish and wasabi, Bangkokians will eventually find their way to you.
Knock-out cocktails

» There's something about a cocktail. Whether it's the instagrammability of how they're presented or the vigour of hipster-looking bartenders using Boston shakers like jackhammers to make them -- whatever it is, they're rather easy to love.

» Planning an itinerary for a modern-day traveller is no easy feat. One minute they expect to be thrilled and swept off their feet with adrenaline-filled activities and in the next, they expect to be lying in the sun doing absolutely nothing, exerting minimal energy, deciding which cocktail to have next or reapplying sun cream.

Bird of all feathers
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 27/05/2016
» Last month, when Guru decided to check out an icy summer drink at a dainty eatery in Ekkamai, we didn't know that our attention would be completely diverted from the incredibly photogenic beverage to the amazing collection of curiosities that were on display inside.
Cruising through the jungle

» As an adventure nut, nothing gives me more joy than to be scared out of my own skin for a few seconds. Riding a jungle coaster and zip-lining through Chiang Mai's lush jungle seems to fit that bill perfectly.
To health and delicious possibilities
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 03/06/2016
» Gin was what came to mind when I first heard of Tonic. And as ironic as it sounds, I was rather glad to find healthy food on the menu instead of some strange infused-beverage crafted by a good looking bearded hipster. And 11am seems a bit early to start drinking on the job, even for me.
