Restaurants, Eating and Street Food in Bangkok. Guide to the best restaurants in Bangkok and the Sukhumvit area. Thai food and unique eating experiences (Thailand).
Something many Bangkokians will be familiar with. Opening my kitchen drawers you will find piles high of ketchup, oregano and chilli flake packets. In the cupboards below you will find bags full. These are the three condiments which accompany every Bangkok Pizza Delivery order. For years they have accumulated in anticipation of a ketchup emergency …
I rarely write about individual restaurants but we do go here a lot. Wine Connection started in Bangkok first operating in import and distribution before expanding through clever diversification to open wine shops, delis, bistros and tapas bars.

I celebrate Valentine’s a day early in Bangkok. There are three reasons for this; Fewer crowds, Valentine’s is stupid and I am cheap. We celebrate with a Bangkok Dinner Cruise on the majestic Chao Phraya River. With advance booking for the day before Valentine’s, we find a bargain; 1,200 Baht per person. It was one …
In honesty I am not a big soup fan and if I had the choice between juicy steaks or barbecued meats I’d likely never eat soup again. Fanfan on the other hand is obsessed with soups in particular the Thai Hot Pot (Jim Jum). It is easily in her favourite of mall foods often beating …
As you may have guessed at Hajime Robot Restaurant in Bangkok the food is served by robot waiters. Every man’s dream since Rocky 4?

The restaurant looks to be part of a localised ‘Himalaya Residences’ a base for Himalayan folk in Bangkok – like a Little Himalaya I guess. The area is …
(Note. After 1 year of trading at the Sukhumvit Soi 29 location the Totoro Cafe is now closed. Will update new location when confirmed). To-to-ro Totoro, To-to-ro Totoro, Dareka ga Kossori Komichi…. I really don’t know Japanese. Sooo Bangkok is now officially home to the first ever licensed Totoro restaurant, or the ‘Bangkok Totoro Cafe’ …
Fanfan “I feel like I’m in a Doll’s House..” Me “and do you like it?” Fanfan “Yes”. Some few words to sum up our experience at Mr Jones Orphanage. It felt like we were in a doll’s house and yes Fanfan liked it. To add more Fanfan “I’m Full” Me “You Didn’t Come Here for …
After more than two happy years together I was caught cheating today and in honesty it was my first time doing so. While there’s been temptations in the past I have always shaken them away offering no more than an occasional flirt on passing or a quick massage. But this time it was a lot more. I …
Despite past desperation to eat Isao’s super cute, sushi plates it wasn’t until recent when I finally live that dream. While I do live close to Isao and pass regularly it has taken me a good three years to pass through the front doors; the reason for this is Isao’s popularity where any given day …
