Bangkok, indeed, is a great place to enjoy the art of eating. Or, if we want to be a little bit fancier: the art of gastronomy. And it goes beyond Thai food.
We suggest that foodies try not only the restaurants on the list but also those that they find suited to their personal taste, preferences, and budget.
Here’s hoping that this special focus on dining and gastronomy will enhance your enjoyment of Look East even more.
