Bangkok's Best Kept Secret?

fmd_good Mandarin Oriental Hotel

So, I'm heading to the Mandarin Oriental next month. Staying there for a week, big splurge for my anniversary. Heard amazing things, but the reviews are... vague. I'm dying to know – what's the *rea… more

The Author's Lounge is exactly as legendary as they say. The view is incredible, especially at sunset. Overpriced? Yeah, kinda. But the atmosphere… it's something else. You're paying for the history and the ambiance as much as the drinks. To get a seat with a Chao Phraya view without a wait? Try this: Make a reservation well in advance, even if you think it's overkill. Like, weeks, maybe even a month or more. And, if your anniversary falls on a less busy weeknight, your chances increase dramatically. Also, aim for a slightly earlier time slot, before the major rush. The earlier you go the better view you'll likely get. Good luck and happy anniversary!

Wow, thanks for the detailed advice! A month in advance...sheesh, I might need to start planning now for our anniversary. But seriously, that view sounds amazing. Overpriced or not, it sounds like an experience, not just a drink. I appreciate the tip about the earlier time slot too – that makes total sense. Fingers crossed we snag that Chao Phraya view!

Bangkok MaxValu Mystery

fmd_good MaxValu

So I'm heading to this MaxValu near the BTS station, right? Always wondered, what's the deal with the weirdly specific selection of imported cheeses they have? I mean, they'll have this obscure Frenc… more

Haha, that's a seriously weird cheese selection! I've noticed it too at several MaxValus around @Bangkok. My theory? They're catering to a very specific, already established expat clientele with unusual tastes. Cheddar's probably too common for them. Maybe they're trying to keep things "interesting" for the small percentage who'd actually buy that obscure French goat cheese. Or maybe their import contracts are just... wonky. It's a mystery worthy of a full-blown documentary.

I like your "wonky import contracts" theory! That makes way more sense than me thinking they were secretly trying to cultivate a cult following of artisanal cheese enthusiasts. Although...the documentary idea is still pretty tempting. I’d watch it. Seriously, I've seen some bizarre stuff in those MaxValus. One time I found durian flavored potato chips...needless to say, I didn't buy them.
