Condo With Office Space (Ergonomic Chairs) - Does This Exist?

You're not going to find that setup in a standard condo's common area. Most buildings here put in cheap dining chairs or those wooden library seats because they look clean and are easy to replace. A few of the newer "work-from-home" branded buildings like Ideo Mobi Asoke or The Line Phahon-Ari have co-working lounges with mesh office chairs, but they're the exception, not the rule.

Your best bet is to buy a used Herman Miller or similar off Facebook Marketplace for 8,000-15,000 baht and set up your own corner. There are dozens of office furniture liquidators around Ratchada and Chatuchak if you want to sit in them first. That'll be cheaper and more reliable than chasing a building amenity that probably doesn't exist the way you're imagining.

Krua Dok Mai Kao is solid but I've always found their som tam a bit tame on the pla ra. If you want the real funky version, try the shophouse spots along Soi Udomsuk 26, near the night market end. They pound it fresh with fermented fish that'll clear your sinuses, and it's like 60 baht. Different style from the On Nut places, more Lao-leaning.

for som tam specifically i'd say the Isaan spots in Chatuchak are underrated, weekdays only though since the weekend crowd ruins the vibe. there's a stall near gate 2 that does tam pa with fermented bamboo shoots, super sour and funky, not something you see much in On Nut. if you're already heading north for Or Tor Kor anyway its worth the detour.

honestly the som tam at Krua Dok Mai Kao is good but what got me hooked is their nam prik pla raa dip with the raw veggies, that funk hits way harder than the papaya does. think most people sleep on it cuz they just order the som tam and gai yang. also pro tip, go before noon on weekdays, after that teh pla ra gets milder cuz they batch it for the lunch rush
