Bangkokian breakup lines
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 17/02/2017
» Who else is glad that Valentine's Day is over? So much pressure to be romantic and don't get us started on the floods of Instagram posts about how many goddamn red roses people got this year. 112? Alright, love, nobody gives a rat's arse.
Ruck & Roll

» Now that the Super Bowl is over and Six Nations is back on, it's time to get stuck into rugby. You know, it's the sport where they pass the odd-shaped ball backwards and -- oh yeah, Dan Carter.
For fusion's sake

» The setting: There are two types of sushi restaurants in Bangkok. Ones where they serve up omakase in a setting so fancy you're probably too scared to let a cough slip out; then the casual ones where you can pretty much rock up in flip-flops ordering salmon rolls stuffed with goose liver, with no one blinking twice. Yuzuki is all about the latter.
Rika, uncaged

» Those familiar with the MMA scene in Thailand may have already heard of Rika Ishige. Her nickname, "The Smiling Assasin", should already give you a clue as to who she is. This chika isn't just another pretty face, she's also the first Thai female MMA fighter that will be competing at the ONE Championship (fb.com/ONEChampionship) happening next week. She talks to us about what it's like to date and train with her other half, what she thought of the Rousey-Nunes fight and the common misconceptions people have about MMA. Knock 'em out, Rika!
Flip the health switch
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 27/01/2017
» The new year brings about so many idealistic goals and changes -- and from our own past experiences, let's just say that it's fairly likely that not all will be achieved by February. So we figured, instead of completely cutting out sugar or carbs from your diet, how about making a few healthy swapsies instead.
Breaking bad news
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 27/01/2017
» Now that 2016 is finally over, we can rest assured that all the bull**** and f**kery it brought with it will never be repeated. Right? RIGHT?! Bleh, who knows what the future has in store for us. Let's face it, this time last year the thought of Trump becoming the 45th President of the United States probably made you spit out your coffee or, if you're a hipster, choke on your kale juice. But then again, never say never, right?
Let's get Baked
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 03/02/2017
» Open the doors to this dainty bakery and cafe on Soi 33 and you'll be immediately greeted by the smell of baked goodies and a very welcoming reception from co-owners Ning and Tong. These two affable ladies have taken over the spot that used to be 'Fat Beagle' -- which was also a bakery -- and decked it out in a homey yet modern style that's seriously inviting. If you ever find yourself in the area, it's a real must to drop in for a slice of cake.
Extreme new year pep talk
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 30/12/2016
» What does a new year bring, if not hope and the prospect of starting over with a clean slate? Especially when 2016 was such a mess. And no, we're not just talking about America electing a racist and sexist narcissist for a president.
Guac me, baby, One more time
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 30/12/2016
» The setting: They say tacos come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. And whether they're served on a plastic plate from a greasy food truck or topped off with some hipster twist at a fancy brick-and-mortar counterpart, tacos (and maybe, Mexican food in general) are man's greatest creation when it comes to types of food that go dangerously well with any alcoholic beverage.
Crack-Attack
Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 06/01/2017
» One of life's greatest disappointments is biting into a soggy waffle -- that, and also putting a chocolate chip cookie in your mouth and then realising two seconds later that those little black chocolate chunks are actually raisins. Damn you, dream-crushers!
