This mall opened in 1985 and is one of the oldest shopping centers in Asia. It has 8 stories and 2 food courts that are remarkably good with tons of variety. Great place to hang out and cool down while acclimating to the heat and humidity.

All around Bangkok you will see vendors selling fruit: pineapple, watermelon, papaya. They chop into bite-size pieces and put in a plastic bag with a long toothpick. Sweetest pineapple you’ll get for less than a US$1.

Thai cuisine is known for blending spicy, salty, sour and sweet in a single dish. There are four distinct culinary regions in Thailand, each of which takes influence from neighboring regions and countries. Throughout the country, though, common ingredients such as fish sauce and an emphasis on fresh herbs, are found. Rice is the main staple food in Thailand, particularly long jasmine rice, which is indigenous to the country and exported around the world. The most famous dishes originating in Thailand are Pad Thai, Pad See Ew, and a number of soup dishes such as Khao Tom and Tom Saep.

The Bull's Head Pub is so British that you expect to step from the door straight into London's bustling West End. The lovingly cared-for wooden interior, complete with a bar and ample seating (both up and downstairs) continues to pull in the locals, expatriates and tourists. As well as traditional British pub food, there is a satisfyingly extensive range of drinks, including Guinness and Kilkenny's, as well as cheap pints of Carlsberg and Heineken. The last Friday of the month is when the house DJ takes over. Alternatively, you can bash out your personal favorite tracks on the hefty jukebox.

Bangkok's first and still most popular Irish pub, Irish Xchange, formerly called Shenanigans is a big two-story, wood-paneled bar on Soi Convent. This warm and friendly hangout continues to attract a wide variety of people, with its lively atmosphere (local bands play most nights of the week) and excellent quality food and drink. For the traditionalist, Guinness, Kilkenny, and Boddington's are all available, in addition to the usual range of Bangkok beers. As well as being a popular nightspot, this place also serves a good range of either set or buffet lunches, Irish curries and roast dinners with Bloody Marys.

As the name might suggest, the Londoner Brew Pub is an English-style microbrewery, serving excellent pub-brewed beers that are a refreshing change from the usual range of available in Thailand. The style is that of a big city pub, with enough seating including quiet booths, a bar, dining tables and pub stools to accommodate the biggest crowds. The food ranges from a spicy Thai menu through to more traditional Western pub fare, including some great burgers, kebabs and even Yorkshire Pudding! There is a stage with live bands and big screen coverage of sporting events too.

The interior of this Irish pub includes a welcoming bar with lots of attention to detail, including more than a few liberated street signs from Eire! Were it not for the traffic snarls outside, you could be forgiven for thinking you were somewhere on the Emerald Isle. There is a small but tasty menu of appetizers and main dishes, featuring more than a few dishes out of place at an Irish pub. However, the usual reason for people to come here is beer; standard Bangkok brands plus imported Guinness and Kilkenny. A pool table sits on the third floor.

It is not hard to imagine yourself emerging from a long walk through the rolling Tuscanny hills and settling down for a romantic meal in a Firenze side-street. All this without leaving Bangkok! Located in the Sheraton Grande Sukhumvit Hotel, Rossini's resembles a sophisticated Italian farmhouse, with fireplaces, exposed wooden beams and tiled floors. Pastas come in appetizer or main sizes and the choice is varied. Try the Tortelli filled with Lobster and Watercress, and flamed with vodka. The meat and fish dishes are similarly seductive and the menu changes regularly; there is also an excellent wine list.

Stylish and sophisticated, the Barbican is Bangkok's classic inner-city bar. The ground floor is dominated by a huge bar and juke box, whilst upstairs there is a great restaurant with good European pub food and sporting events constantly being shown on the television. DJs play a variety of musical styles, enhancing the Barbican's reputation as a place to enjoy a drink after a hard day trekking around Silom Road. Popular food choices include the excellent Smoked Salmon with Poppy Seeds and a wide range of sandwiches and burgers.

Drinking on the backpacker ghetto of Khao San Road traditionally revolved around dingy bars and cheap beer, but the new scene calls for something a little more sophisticated. Gulliver's, a big Western-style bar, was probably the first of these. The air-conditioned interior has the usual range of American paraphernalia carefully disguising a rather decent bar, with pool and foosball tables. The music is mainstream pop at a volume that can make conversation difficult, but the real surprise is the impressively varied menu of very tasty Western and Thai food. North American and European sports programs are screened throughout the day.
