Cool Bangkok is your guide for where to shop, dine, party and sleep in style in one of the world's most popular travel destinations. Featuring more than 130 clubs, bars, restaurants, hotels and other venues, all of which have been carefully selected for their individuality and personal flair, this book enables you to strike off from the capital's well-trodden tourist paths and confidently explore side streets and hot spots in search of new experiences. Suitable for tourists and residents alike, the guide profiles a range of places that are testament to the city's diversity, whether you're after haute couture or urban fashion, molecular gastronomy or fiery street food, or stripped-back blues or Dutch electro. As cool isn't synonymous with cost, care has been taken to include venues that match a range of budgets, suitable for anyone from fashionistas to dime-store divas.
