Bangkok


An enviable riverside location makes this restaurant-bar a contender for one of Bangkok’s better sunset cocktail destinations. Seating is both outdoors on a pleasant riverside promenade and indoors in a wood-and-iron-themed dining area. There are some refreshing sundowner-style cocktails on offer – try the rum-and-orange diplo (345B). It's located on the ground floor of River City.
