Nightlife

 

Two Shots: Sing Sing Theater

If you know Sing Sing, you know what’s about to go down. Entry (B300) buys you two shots, as the name suggests, and Saturday night is set to feature Mo-funk, Wildealer, and Wild Thai. Make sure you’ve got your other two shots as well—and an ATK test.

Apr 2, 7pm to late, 45 Sukhumvit 45 Alley, Khwaeng Khlong Tan Nuea, 063 225 1331

 

African Ride 

Didier Mpondo and Jacob Dinesen will be blowing up Speakerbox in Thonglor on Saturday. Didier Mpondo is a Cameroonian drummer and special guest Jakob Dinesen, a Danish saxophonist, will be making an appearance. That show starts at 9pm and it’s B300 at the door.

Too Hot to Handle Pool Party

The pool party of the week is at Hyatt Regency Bangkok Sukhumvit—a little more down market than SO Bangkok but likely more chill, especially considering it’s on a Sunday. B600 will get you standing around the poolside, but there are cabanas for five at B6,000 that includes two bottles of spirits. 

Apr 3, 3-9pm, 1 Sukhumvit Soi 13 Rd, Khlong Toei Nuea, 02 098 1234

 

Viva Filipinas Free Flow Party

This is pretty different from the club scene, but an affordable chance to see how much booze you can down in two hours. Viva’s Club Escolta is featuring bottomless beer, rum, vodka, tequila, and gin this Friday, with DJ Palla spinning throughout the night. The two hours of free flow runs for B699, and reservations are recommended. 

Apr 1, 7-9pm, 372 Sri Ayutthaya Road, Thanon Phyathai, Ratchathewi, 080-294 2561

Brunchilicious

Have you seen the Seen brunch? Well we have. And it is a lot. Slam three hours of brunching into the posh Seen restaurant from Avani+ Riverside on the Chaophraya. Expect fried chicken chicharron and mussel escabeche alongside sushi and sashimi for appetizers and duck confit, crispy lechon belly, and roasted rib-eye for mains. And the dessert is a tower of various sweet munchies, cakes, and, believe it or not, luxury s’mores. It’s B2,499++ per person for food, B3,499++ with drinks, and B7,999++ for champers.

Apr 2, 12-5pm. 257 Charoen Nakhon Rd., Samre, 02 431 9100

 

For the love of Fries and Fizz

Who knows French fries better than these guys? At Manfarang, to add a little suds to your spuds, locally made craft sodas will be transformed into mixed drinks by the mixologists of Wasteland from 6pm until late and DJ Sakina will be spinning throughout. 

Apr 1, 6pm, 12/3 Soi Sukhumvit 22, Khlong Toey, 095 495 1820

 

Brassica is Back

After quietly closing its permanent spot on Soi Nanglinchee in August last year, Brassica is bringing its famous goo-filled donuts to Ekkamai Soi 12 by sharing kitchen space with fashion cafe One Ounce for Onion. Expect the same bulky, sugary kick from the donuts, with Singaporean chef Cong Wen and his partner still handling the whole operation. Eat your fill with peanut butter jam, vanilla custard, and strawberry jam (B90), all with 12-hour rested dough that makes for a dense, bouncy texture.

Events

 

Broken Voices Open Mic

You’ve seen Broken Souls and Broken Toys, well, now it’s time for Broken Voices—open to poets, comedians, and spoken word artists of all shapes. And, if you’re not any of those things, performers get a free drink so maybe give it a try anyway.

The Swap Shop

The wellness gurus at Mindful Sparks are having a swap meet this Sunday at Training Ground, so instead of (or in spite of) destroying your body with food and booze, maybe spend your Sunday swapping your books, clothes, and kitchenware. Leftover goods will be donated.
