So Bangkok

You'll find yourself on Alexandra Parade in the heart of town, walking into a place that takes its food seriously without any of the fuss. So Bangkok does that rare thing: authentic Thai that tastes like it's been cooked by someone who actually gives a damn. The kitchen balances heat and flavour with real skill, whether you're ordering pad thai or something more adventurous. It's become the sort of spot locals keep coming back to, which tells you everything you need to know. The ratings speak for themselves, and the word-of-mouth around town is even better.
