International eats at great value for money on Thonglor
| FOR over four years now this trendy bistro on Thonglor has been delighting diners with its extensive selection of international wines, boozy and innovative cocktails, as well as international eats at great value for money. Grab a table on the outdoor terrace and you’re sure to enjoy some superb people watching – all gym-toned blokes and lithe women dressed to the nines – and it’s a lovely spot to while away an evening with a glass of wine or two (start at B200++ per glass, B950++ per bottle). |  |
Alternatively head inside to lap up the bistro ambience – think dark walls and furniture, subdued lighting, and a large bar displaying all kinds of spirits, whisky and beers – where tightly packed tables, and a large central counter flanked by stools, ensures there’s always a bubbly atmosphere. And that’s just on the ground floor. Venture upstairs and you’ll find the perfect spot for a date: a more spacious layout with tables set far enough apart to offer privacy, and subdued lighting spilling from naked lightbulbs in wire frames. Very New York chic.
In line with Wine Republic’s bistro-meets-restaurant concept, the food menu spans the globe and offers up a tantalizing range of appetizers, salads, pastas, pizzas, risotto, steaks, seafood and desserts, all of which are reasonably priced.

You can tuck into decent salad selections such as Foie gras rocket raspberry balsamic (a delightful treat with an earthy finish. B380++); thin-crust oven pizzas like the Wine Republic House Pizza (featuring salami, Italian sausage, bell pepper, black olive, sliced chillis and generous sprinkles of mozzarella. B320++); and succulent steaks such as New York Striploin (served with mashed potatoes, gravy and sautéed spinach. B380++).
But if you want to go all out and really indulge, the signature Lobster Angelhair (B1,050++), which is served on top of the lobster’s shell, is highly recommended.
When it comes to washing down your meal, like the restaurant’s name suggests, there are plenty of great wines on offer – including renowned labels from Australia, France, Italy, Spain USA, Argentina and Chile. But we suggest you also check out the creative cocktails, including highlights such as the Gordon Roug (a fruity concoction which blends vodka, Pimm’s No 1, white wine, vanilla syrup, lime and a handful of chopped fruits. B280++) or the Funky Monkey (a refreshing creation that mixes vodka, rum, cream de banana, vanilla and lime. B280++). All in all, a great night out.
