Another Silom Soi favourite, this one a hot spot for the local in-crowd who come to see and be seen at the outdoor tables. Inside it's split over three levels and more hectic, with weekend clubbers cramming in to bop and bounce to everything from house to hip-hop. But we say slow down, pull up an outside chair, breathe in Bangkok night air and make eye contact with whoever takes your fancy. Bar staff are big on spirits and cocktails which should supplement your courage.
