With the same interior designers as Greyhound, Wanara has the same edgy elegance. Finished in contrasting monochromes and equipped with marbletop tables and a black leather wrap-around couch, this eatery oozes style but also quirkiness. Thai fusion won't leave you wondering what the hell you’re eating but leaves you asking for more.
The design is quite smart but very 1999---lean white lines, dark wood, water. The venue serves Thai-wanese rather than Taiwanese. There are some Thai dishes, some Chinese, but few noticeably Taiwanese.
We’ve always been the only diners on our visits to Water Library, probably because of its location in a remote corner of a mall full of tutorial schools. Despite this, most items on the menu are still available, and the service is ultra-responsive. In fact, the elegantly dressed waitresses are a little too present. Water Library has, you guessed it, an impressive water menu.
Nothing less than a mega resort-restaurant decked out in Bali-contemporary style over a 15-rai area. With its capacity for up to 600 people both indoors and outdoors, eight KTV rooms for 10-40 people, it’s not exactly boutique but every single section is actually waterside. The sophisticated lighting creates a convincing illusion of intimacy.
Thailand isn’t just the Land of Smiles but also the land of whis-ky drinkers, ranking in the top 10 in the region. While other cultures might drink whisky on the rocks, we prefer to mix with something else…just as long as it rocks our night.
Once a haunt of the city's bold and beautiful, this homey and once trendy fusion venue serves dishes like som tam green apple and mushroom garlic salad for appetizers and fried squid stuffed with port and steamed plaa too for main courses. The food is consistent but the crowd has moved on.
Its familiar menu you'll find on the streets, buthere it's served up with the hotel quality and cordiality. The freshness of the seafood is exquisite and the whole meal offers elephant sized quantity.
The restaurant is in a house set into a lush bamboo-lined yard with a peachfully trickling fountain. The menu has a fairly standard listing of Thai and Indian dishes, with vegetarian options for both. You can also munch chicken and sea creatures, but no beef or pork.
The buzz: Quality wines for retail prices, a special wine dispensing system offering a good variety of wines by the glass and finger food from Gianni’s.
The décor: The second floor lounge is all about relaxing in upholstered chairs and taking in the paintings that are for sale. You can also puff on your Cohiba (B670) in their cigar room (by reservation only).
The second fl oor lounge is all about relaxing in upholstered chairs and taking in the paintings that are for sale.

As the name, Wine Loft offering around 400 labels, this cellar is defi nitely stocked.
