Have you ever seen a tree growing inside a building? If you visit Siam Wisdom Restaurant in Bangkok then this is what awaits you, and both children and adults find it fascinating. I’m not sure which came first. The tree, or the restaurant? But nestled inside this traditional wooden two-story building, is a massive tree bursting forth […]
If you are heading to Bangkok, then be sure to book a table for the famous Novotel Platinum Pratunam Brunch Buffet. We chose the Weekday International Buffet, and even though we ran a little late, we managed to get there with plenty of food left for us. If I went again I would get there early, take […]
