We thought it was time to celebrate the post-lockdown life with a list of trendy new restaurants, bars and cafes in Bangkok that will make jealous all your friends on Instagram. Whether it’s amazing views of the city, lush gardens or retro vibes, each of these F&B venues have more to offer than just delectable bites and sips.
Nestled in a beautiful two-storey house in Sukhumvit 26, Mia offers a flavourful eight-course tasting menu. The ground floor of the restaurant features a glass-encased kitchen and golden bar space that serves creative and delicious concoctions. Make your way to the second story to find a room full of tropical plants and pastel furniture that will remind you of London. You can also snap a shot in their darkroom. Be sure to bring with you the theatrical Be a Movie Star drink which comes in a popcorn box.
Tatler Tip: Don’t forget to check out Mia’s aesthetic washing facilities and be ready to snap plenty of pictures there.
