The new black gold

Guru, Nianne-Lynn Hendricks, Published on 24/08/2018

» Canadian Blake Dinkin is the creator and owner of the world's rarest and most expensive coffee, refined naturally by elephants — Black Ivory Coffee. Partnering with Ban Taklang in Surin and the Golden Triangle Asian Elephant Foundation, Dinkin produces "elephant dung coffee". However, production of Black Ivory Coffee provides valuable income for elephant care-giving families, as well as students who are taught how to wash and dry the coffee. The mission of Black Ivory Coffee is to take a negative situation, namely human-elephant conflict and turn it into a positive one by creating a luxury product that helps not hurts elephants, as Dinkin tells Guru.

Time to get healthy

Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 24/08/2018

» Launched in March, Cocogo is an online food delivery service that specialises in healthy eating, focused on those who don't have the time to cook or go to a restaurant. However, Cocogo isn't your usual "order one quick meal on the go". They deliver a set meal plan consisting of two or three meals a day. That means you can depend on their service for breakfast, lunch and dinner. But how does it fare among other healthy food delivery services? For those who haven't started that diet plan for their new year resolutions, read on to find out.

Sound hounds

Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 24/08/2018

» Bangkok's underground electronic music scene has been rapidly growing in recent years. There are various events focusing on different music genres which include house, disco, techno as well as the subgenres within, which there weren't as many a few years back. Western influences have changed the music landscape and conversely, Thai acts have begun to take inspiration from their style to apply on their craft. We chat with six Bangkok-based DJs and acts, artists who are putting in the sweat to expand and gain exposure in the underground music scene. These DJs have made a significant impact on the dance music community in recent years and Guru feels the need to give you, especially you who love the underground dance music scene, a proper introduction.

In tapas we trust

» A few things come to mind when Bangkokians think of Spanish food: the plates are small, expensive and not worth the money. Walking into any Spanish eatery, you have to mentally prep yourself to either break the bank, or pay an affordable amount for a less-than-mediocre meal.

Warm, welcoming, rustic

Guru, Nianne-Lynn Hendricks, Published on 24/08/2018

» Mallard, a newish Mediterranean eatery is nestled half-way in the popular food soi that is Sukhumvit 49, attached to the Adelphi Forty-Nine Hotel. Named after the dabbling duck known for its adaptability, the restaurant's philosophy is "what we cook is who we are", with a focus on wild and exotic meats. The interior looks like a country farmhouse, with a patio and terrace seating, complete with potted plants, outdoor fans (to keep the hot summer days cool), animal trophies, antler chandeliers and wood and leather furniture. Warm lighting completes the look, which includes a bar in the centre of the restaurant. A very macho restaurant.
