TASTE<br />
Anyone who has been to Sukhumvit 38 might<br />
wonder about what lies behind the white walls, since<br />
all you can see is the Thai-style roof surrounded by<br />
greenery. Those who have a chance to walk through<br />
the front door might feel like they are under a magic<br />
spell because suddenly the surroundings completely<br />
change and the bustling noise of Bangkok seems to<br />
fade away. In the next few moments you start to get<br />
a sense of where you really are as you walk up the<br />
wooden stairs of a traditional Thai house flanked by<br />
lush trees. The magic spell is stronger at dusk when<br />
the whole compound is lit up by candlelight. Face<br />
Bangkok can always enthrall visitors in the most<br />
effortless way.<br />
In terms of design, Face Bangkok aims to<br />
present a Thai way of living through the Reun Thai<br />
architecture surrounded by water, a representation<br />
of klong, or canals, that were the lifeblood of<br />
Bangkok in times past. Walk straight through and<br />
you will be greeted with Face Bar, a meeting point<br />
and gathering place where you can have cocktails<br />
and conversations before heading to one of the<br />
three restaurants within the compound. Upstairs<br />
is Hazara restaurant that serves Northern Indian<br />
cuisine. Walk out of Face Bar and you will find Lan<br />
Na Thai on your right. This Thai restaurant offers<br />
Thai cuisine with delicious treats like pomelo salad,<br />
grilled sea bass in banana leaf, roasted duck curry,<br />
and all-time favorite desserts like mango and sticky<br />
rice. Downstairs is Mizaki, a Japanese restaurant<br />
where high-quality Japanese dishes and sushi<br />
are available in a private setting. If you come in<br />
a group and want to order every kind of cuisine<br />
available, Face Bangkok can easily arrange that.<br />
However, if you want a more private setting for a<br />
grand event, the function room at Face Bangkok<br />
can accommodate 50-80 guests at a time. Apart<br />
from the restaurants and bar, Face Bangkok also<br />
has its own spa with 2 treatment rooms and various<br />
treatments like Thai massage, herbal compress<br />
massage, facial massage and scrubs. All in all, it’s<br />
easy to spend your entire day at this one location.<br />
