    Life, Vanniya Sriangura, Published on 01/08/2014

    K-pot

    Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 01/08/2014

    » At the risk of making a lame analogy, you may find it hard to say what you like best in a Korean hotpot, much like picking your favourite member of a K-pop band, given the various choices put together. Officially opened last week, The Red Sun specialises in hotpots with tokpokki (spicy rice cakes). The new restaurant looks like a cool greenhouse where you can sit under a tree in the comfort of AC but don’t have to worry about leaves falling into your food. There are instructions on how to tend to your hotpot properly on the paper placemats but, better yet, you can just wait for an attentive waiter to cook things for you. On our visit, groups of office workers and students were there to gang up on these red hotpots.

    A cut above

    Guru, Jarupat Buranastidporn, Published on 01/08/2014

    » If your intention for the evening is to wander around town, spot this restaurant and pop in for a quick meal — forget it (because you’ll never find it). But if you’re looking for great steaks, an old-school menu and a chef with over 40 years of experience in the US, Knife & Fork Urban Bistro is undeniably worth the drive down the hidden soi. Everybody knows that dining in Thong Lor often leads to a debate about whether there’s actually any parking available or if you’ll have to walk home after being left penniless from all the fancy food and imported wine. It’s safe to say that Knife & Fork offers diners the best of both worlds with sheltered parking, enjoyable dishes and decent selections of Wagyu, Angus and even US Prime cuts — all for a price that won’t break your bank account.
