Savour Spain
Guru, Nianne-Lynn Hendricks, Published on 25/05/2018
» Taburete is not new to the Bangkok food scene. In fact, it moved from a small space on Sukhumvit 24 to Soi Sala Daeng a year-and-a-half ago, taking with it the same tastes and flavours. In a slightly bigger space now, with an outdoor terrace area that has four tables, Taburete's quaint concrete facade and fancy grillwork transports one to Spain, where lazy afternoons are spent people-watching while sipping sangria, minus Bangkok's mosquitoes. Once through the wooden doors, you are actually in a tapas bar that has no more than four tables, with a long table against the French window for the streetview.
Welcome to heaven!

» It is rare that food these days is prepared with its medicinal values kept in mind. But a chef in the heart of Thailand's Northeast is slowly changing that.
Cool for the summer

» Summer would not be summer without ice cream. It's most people's go-to frozen treat and what makes this treat even better is the addition of a little bit of "spirit".
The Italian affair
Guru, Nianne-Lynn Hendricks, Published on 27/04/2018
» Sukhumvit 31 is a long soi and we often tend to forget the little cut off street leading to Soi 23. Calderazzo On 31 is on this forgotten street. Having recently moved from Langsuan to 31, Calderazzo is Italian with a difference. It has a rather bistro-like feel to it, with plenty of tables for private or romantic dinners. There is also a patio for those who enjoy the occasional breeze Mother Nature allows Bangkok.
The pioneer woman

» Women have always been at the forefront of social change in Asia; however, Helianti Hilman is not your average social do-gooder. She loves problems. "The more problems I have, the more butterflies in the stomach and the bigger the adrenalin rush thinking about solutions and creating products," she says. "If there is a problem, there is a product. I like creating things."

A sweet time

» A 10-minute leisurely stroll from BTS Ratchathewi is what it takes to escape hot and humid Bangkok to the English countryside that is otherwise known as Lemoncurd Tearoom.

The sunny side
Guru, Nianne-Lynn Hendricks, Published on 30/03/2018
» Sandwiched between a craft beer bar and hostel, and a closed shophouse almost on the corner of Ekamai 12, Broken Eggs has a sunny disposition. Its small porch has tables for those who like to light up and big French windows gives you a glimpse of the inside, a casual wood and steel setting, comprising a mix of high tables and normal tables and seating at the big bar. A street vendor's food cart parked in the front is what chef Jacobo Astray Tudela uses when Broken Eggs serves up tapas at the various food events around town, and is a homage to its days at W District, where it all began.
