Editor’s Letter There's never been a better time to eat out in Bangkok. New restaurants are opening at pace.

They are ready to serve the taste of happiness on a silver plate on your table. Local eateries that consistently provide good food and good service in equal measure give you the best time of every meal. I hope you enjoy reading the art of making undeniable sweets dishes, the interview with Chef pol- #Hash me, the passion of Japanese chef who makes exquisite Japanese food with love, and deliciousness where happiness melt in your mouth at D’ark I recommended you to try at least one of these dishes and don't be surprised of how much you'd love it.

Enjoy the dishes!

The stunning of the white coffee shop inside the Piman 49 complex serves brews so good they’ve made local office, but D’ARK looks upon itself as a whole lot more than a coffee shop. In fact, there’s not much they don’t do.

D’ARK also provide good quality of food in the nice atmosphere and modern where is suitable for coffee lover and who wants to take a nice picture for sure. The decoration of D’ARK look very clean which there is a large table and the hanging lamp from the ceiling. The corner which is very famous location for people who often come to take a photo. Moreover, D’ARK also have their own art style within every corner of the shop. The second floor, there will be the small table for the customers to see the view of people walking around that area. Most of the people often come for their cup but the food of this shop is also very interesting because they have got the chief name “Jeriko Van Der Wolf” a very young chief who has many experiences about creating the menu of fusion style and his menu is very impressive which he used this technic from France to make the dish look tasty and can make us enjoy the food and sharing photos.

Each dishes came in small portion so that you can enjoy many dishes including Vichyssoise Soup, it is the cold soup which there is an ice-cream smoked milk in the middle and there is also the soup that made from France which will make you feel fresh all day long. D’ark Omelette, made from egg and potatoes, eating with butter and truffle foam.

D’ark Omelette, made from egg and potatoes, eating with butter and truffle foam. Spicy Freshness, another dish that you should not be missed because the taste is sweet and a bit of sour from orange and mango but the main course of the shop must be Asian Memories, it is the salmon comfit which heat up at 44 degree Celsius and 45 minutes long, then put into the seaweed.

The best seller include Berger and many types of Salad.

Apart from D’ark, there is also bakery which is very interesting because we have got Chief Joffrey Jacob from France. He has been working at La Grande Epicerie Paris before. He can make the bakery look beautiful which is very classic style and he also deconstruct each part to make the bakery look very impressive while having the same texture. You can try White Chocolate Fondant and D’ARK Cornetto Collection, it is the homemade ice cream of this shop. It’s so amazing in your mouth.
