Banh mi and bourbon
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 05/01/2018
» The Setting: Not only Happy Endings, a new restaurant in Sala Daeng Soi 1, should pique your interest with its double entendre name (intentional or not) but also its contemporary take on Vietnamese cuisine. I climbed a green metal staircase, passing the restaurant's name spelt in handwritten lowercase with neon lights and opened a double-panel door to a casual space. Think bare ceiling with pipes running along it and exposed beams.

Plant-based meal plans
Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 26/01/2018
» Following through with a diet plan can be an arduous task. You are what you eat after all, so maintaining a healthy lifestyle by being selective with your food choices could prove difficult for most people (including me). Pranaa Food For Life, a new food delivery service whose menu is based entirely around plants, could be the answer for a quick eat without the hassle of cooking healthy meals yourself. Having launched two months ago, Pranaa's vast selection of dishes are based on a plant-based whole food diet that's suitable for vegans. Therefore, their ingredients include vegetables, fruits, grains, legumes, herbs and spices, and are devoid of meat, dairy and eggs. All cooking oils are also excluded. Brown rice and bread are used whenever possible (sensibly). The service aims to help people lead longer and healthier lives. Colour us healthy then.

Clean, green energy
Guru, Nianne-Lynn Hendricks, Published on 09/02/2018
» Bangkok, the city that never sleeps, which also can be said true for its inhabitants. We are always on the go, especially with all the Netflix and chilling keeping us awake till late into the night.
Some manga to go with your coffee
Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 16/02/2018
» On the second floor of Paradise Park in Prawet district, within the Tokyu department store section, Tezuka Shoten & Cafe aims to be the first manga (read: Japanese comics) cafe in Thailand, having opened in December last year.
Concert peeps
Guru, Pasavat Tanskul, Published on 16/02/2018
» Concerts are awesome. Here at Guru, we have been to a fair amount of live shows of our favourite artists and bands, despite the ridiculously expensive tickets. And with every concert we attend, we see and meet the same kind of people. From the fans that seem to know the lyrics of every song to the ones who just can't seem to put their phones down as they record every moment of the show. We took the time to list our favourite (or for some, least favourite) types of concertgoers in Thailand. All in good fun.
Taking noodle up a notch
Guru, Pornchai Sereemongkonpol, Published on 16/02/2018
» The Setting: A kuay tiew experience doesn't have to mean a quick shophouse meal where all the tables have the flimsy pink papers for wiping everything and plastic jugs filled with tea that look like they have never been washed. If the idea of kuay tiew has become uneventful, Mamarin Noodles can spice it up for you (lame food pun intended). You see, the new kuay tiew restaurant highlights a Ban Beung (a district in Chon Buri) variation of the popular street food while taking it up a notch with the cosy ambience and, most importantly, quality ingredients.
