(2nd fl, Erawan Bangkok, 494 Th Ploenchit; mains 180-480B; 10am-10pm; ; Chit Lom exit 8) The
oversized chairs, panoramic windows and variety of hot drinks make this one of
Bangkok's best places to catch up with the paper. The lengthy menu of Thai standards will
likely encourage you to linger longer, and the selection of jams and teas to take away al-
lows you to re- create the experience at home.

( 0 2162 9000; www.kempinskibangkok.com ; ground fl, Siam Kempinski Hotel, 991/9 off Th Phra Ram I; set meal
2700B; noon-3pm & 6-11pm; ; Siam exits 3 & 5) Helmed by a Thai and a Dane whose
Copenhagen restaurant, Kiin Kiin, snagged a Michelin star, Sra Bua takes an international
approach to Thai food. Putting local ingredients through the wringer of molecular gastro-
nomy, the couple have created unconventional Thai dishes such as 'frozen red curry with
lobster salad'. Reservations recommended.
GAGGAN$$$

INDIAN
( 0 2652 1700; www.eatatgaggan.com ; 68/1 Soi Langsuan; set menu 1600B; 6-11pm; ;
Ratchadamri exit 2) The white, refurbished villa that houses Gaggan seems more appropriate
for an English-themed tea house than a restaurant serving self-proclaimed 'progressive In-
dian cuisine', but Gaggan is all about incongruity. The set menu here spans 10 courses,
ranging from the daring (a ball of raita) to the traditional (some excellent tandoori), with
bright flavours and unexpected but satisfying twists as a unifying thread.
