Soul food from New Orleans
Guru, Nianne-Lynn Hendricks, Published on 12/06/2024
» It is without doubt that some of the world’s best cuisines exist because of trade routes, colonisation and migration.
Experience a paradise of abundance at Joali Maldives
Guru, Nianne-Lynn Hendricks, Published on 12/12/2022
» Nothing and I mean nothing prepares you for the Maldives… and I grew up by the sea. Long known as a romantic spot for couples, in a post-pandemic world, the Maldives is seeing a lot of changes to its tourism. It’s a spot for families, friends and IG-driven people.

Turning a new leaf
Guru, Suthivas Tanphaibul, Published on 24/06/2022
» To all Thais, now you can proudly brag that we're the first Asian country to legalise marijuana. The new milestone was marked on June 9, 2022, when growing and trading cannabis were no longer a crime in Thailand. Smoking gets a green light too, but puffing a joint in public is still prohibited. With a newfangled marijuana business popping up around the city, we list dispensaries in Bangkok for those who are curious. We also asked the weedness-owners about their backgrounds and basics for begin-stoners.
The 2021 Guru awards
Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 24/12/2021
» As the year comes to a close and we're all looking back at the past 12 months with introspection, at Guru we will stick to time-honoured tradition of being reflectively snarky. Like any other year, 2021 had no shortage of cringe-worthy and WTF moments. So before we head into the new year with resolutions we'll give up on halfway through the first month of 2022, let's roll out the metaphorical red carpet as we award moments from the eventful year. It's time for this year's edition of the Guru Awards.
Serving green realness
Guru, Nianne-Lynn Hendricks, Published on 14/02/2020
» Despite the despicable air quality we all long for green open spaces to hang out. A longing, which has been heard by new cafes, bars and dining spaces. In a concrete jungle where every square metre is a baht sign, it is rare to find such spaces.
Addictive fluffiness
Guru, Eric E Surbano, Published on 20/09/2019
» Doughnuts are a bit of a hit and miss. It sometimes depends on where you buy your doughnuts from but mostly it's how they are made that determines whether you're going to be enjoying it or not. Heck, even established doughnut places can botch it at times by going off the rails with weird flavours. This is probably why Kinu decided to make straight-up simple doughnuts for everyone to enjoy.
No sugar, no cry
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 23/08/2019
» Bangkok has seen many alternative diets. You can go vegetarian, vegan, paleo, gluten-free and now you can add ketogenic diet to the healthy/picky bunch. Ketogenic or keto for short, is high in fat, adequate in protein and low in carbohydrates. The diet is used to treat epilepsy but it's also known for forcing the body to burn fat for fuel rather than carbs. If the ratio between fat, protein and carb of the diet is a bit much to wrap your head around, then you should consider a visit to Club No Sugar for an introduction. It's not just a keto-centric restaurant but feels more like an institute of sort. Launched in April, Club No Sugar stands where Green Republic restaurant was and the structure remains pretty much the same (Rama III is my turf).
