One “Hip” Bar and Many Others

By theskinnybib on January 9, 2011

Right! This is the round-up of places I’d been in Bangkok before I move on to reviewing the places in London. First up was the Minibar Royale, a very hip, “American diner’s” hangout kinda place for Bangkokian celebrities and socialites, serving up easy Western kinda food in a “hip” kinda way. Nothing too fancy or …

The Water Library

By theskinnybib on January 5, 2011

Right! The concept of the place – a restaurant with different types of water around the world amalgamating into an H2O list as opposed to a wine list – did spell out a big gimmick to me and I had, on one previous occasion, come across a restaurant with this sort of “water” list. My …

Sra Bua by Kiin Kiin: Thai Food, No!?

By theskinnybib on December 30, 2010

It has almost been a year since I visited Kiin Kiin in Copenhagen, renowned for its molecular deconstruction of Thai classics, but at the time, the other place we went to during the trip – known to the world as Noma – totally outdid it. I particularly did not enjoy my meal at Kiin Kiin …

Really Is The Destination!

By theskinnybib on December 27, 2010

I was just following the crowd, my high school best friends, to this unassuming eatery Nhong May in Hua Hin, the location of which was obscure. It was sort of just off Petchakrasem Road (Hua Hin’s main road). If you head for Bangkok, turn left – if you head for Hua Hin, turn right – …

(Not) The Destination?

By theskinnybib on December 27, 2010

My bags were packed for Hua Hin, another of Thailand’s seaside resort towns and a hub for Bangkokian urbanites, but before leaving I did not forget to google for places to eat. And I picked restaurant Kroui Pah Heed next to the Fishermen’s Pier in Cha-Am – called Sa-Pan Plah in Thai – which Thai …

Grilled River Prawns (and My Soaring Cholesterol!)

By theskinnybib on December 23, 2010

River prawns, in case you do not know, are the much sought after dish by Thai locals. Forget the high cholesterol; just imagine the sensually white, bouncy meat, the luscious, lava-like shrimp oil – and the grease it leaves on your lips that get you licking for more – the fresh, tangy and fiery dipping …
