It's amazing that these movies make so much money. Just a bunch of pretty but miserable people running about. This one is probably the best one so far, but that isn't saying much. It's probably worth seeing at the IMAX though. I saw it at the Century so not too exciting.

For 3 to 5 hundred dollars you can get a good quality custom made suit in Bangkok. The keys to success are: 1. Know what you want and be able to explain it to the person you are ordering from. Sounds simple, but many people get all excited when they walk in a shop and a week later are disappointed because the suit isn’t really what they wanted. The tailor probably could have fulfilled their request, but your wishes were never properly communicated. 2. Ensure the company you are working with is legitimate. They should stand by their work, and make as many adjustments as necessary until you are satisfied. 3. Know what you want. I know I said this already, but you have to know what you want when it comes to every detail here. My personal recommendations for value – Bangkok – Tailor Pro – I can’t say enough about the owner,Sam who overseas all of the cutting in his shop, is Zegna certified, Italian educated, and has family in the business working in Rome.

I "discovered" this restaurant back in February (2010). I actually dismissed it at first as I assumed that any place advertising cal-mex food would be too bland for my taste. I like the spicier style of Mexican. But I did notice that the place was located very conveniently, about a 30 second walk from the base of the steps at Asok BTS station. Then I found out that one of the owners was previously if not still an owner of Great American Rib Company (GARC), a place I had enjoyed in the past. That tipped the scale, so one day while near Asok, I stopped in and had ribs. As expected, they were very good, albeit a different style of sauce than GARC. I can't say which is better, I think it would depend on the day of the week or what flavor of beer I had before eating them that would make the difference. I was very impressed with the facility. Quaint and pleasant surroundings with a variety of options (outside, inside, bar, air-con, upstairs, street-side, etc.). Nicely done. So I knew I would be coming back. So the next time I went, I gave the Mexican food a try. As I had feared, it was far too pedestrian for my palate. I asked for hot sauce or peppers, but only got the standard US fare of tabasco-styled sauces: not what I was looking for. The food did not lack quality, just that flavorful kick that I appreciate so much. But still, with the service and friendliness of the wait staff, the overall experience was good. It was on my third visit that I found the secret. I was at the bar enjoying drinks, and I spoke to a waiter about the "heat factor." He told me about the sauces- the same as I had been given before- but this time I pressed the issue. I described the peppers that I have seen used in my favorite Mexican food, and he knew them immediately. He said that the cooks keep them for their own use. THAT WOKE UP THIS FOOD. He brought them out finely chopped in a small bowl, and I added to my own satisfaction. Now this is how it should be. Since, I have been a regular customer at Los Cabos. But it is more than just the food, drinks, facility and wait staff. When the afternoon/evening crowd arrives, the place is just fun- it has character. The layout of the bar is such that it promotes easy socialization. A good place to meet friends and make new ones. The only downside here is that it would be nice if the bar area was even bigger. Conclusion: Highly Recommended. Rating: 4.5 (see below) Suggestions: -Offer a variety of spice condiments and publish this information on the menu. There are just too many in Bangkok that like spicy food to ignore them. (Gee, I wonder why ?) -At the bar, offer a complimentary or VERY inexpensive finger-food like nuts or chips and salsa so customers can enjoy more margaritas.

I've been here many times as the food is excellent. I like the outside picnic tables when the weather is nice. Very nice atmosphere. My problem is with the service..the waitresses are daydreaming most of the time. I literally went to the bar myself for more drinks as they just weren't paying attention.

I have walked past here 1000 times and finally decided to stop in. Very crowded and busy. The pizza-making guys were flat out. Service was quick and they kept my beer coming. Pizza was very good and I enjoyed the whole experience.

ate here last night for 1st ime and will go back..great atmosphere and great food....i loved sitting outside on the veranda...place was packed..

I had been there last week in Hot Curry with my friends group during my visit to Bangkok.We had ordered Dal Makhni and Paranthas with curd in breakfast.The food was so delectable and tasty.I went eating 7 paranthas myself.Dal Makhni was so tasty that I did not even eat such good Dal makhni back in India also. Hospitality was excellant and service was so wonderful.I didn't imagine that we could ever get such a good indian food and wonderful hospitality in Bangkok. Must visit to this place by every Indian food lovers.

I always went early in the morning and found WOW to be uncrowded. I hate when the customers sit on a machine and rest or talk on a telephone. I found the staff, other than the salespeople to be very freindly. But I never asked for anything special and other than checking in had nothing to do with them. I just checked in, changed, and went from machine to machine. It's very clean. I don't know what a Diamond Dual Membership is but I paid 8000 for 4 months, because I had to leave BKK for 5 months. I should have taken the year I guess. I guess I could have gotten and year for 8000. Next time I'll be tough. But I think I got my moneys worth any way. I got some good workouts in. If anyone has pointers about the membership, please enlighten me, because I'd like to join with the option of going to use the Pattaya WOW as well.

I went to the Pro Bridal Wedding Dress with my mum, and they were absolutely lovely, after a talk with the lady there, we were shown dresses which she felt would look best for me, and did she get this right, each one was just getting better and better. I liked them all and members of staff were very helpful in helping me and my mum choose. Each time I came out of the changing room my mum was in tears! I was treated like a princess. I know that I have found my dream dress. I will be getting everything from here, it was a joy and can't wait to go back and choose my bridesmaid dresses and for the fitting of my beautiful dress.

I have been eager to try this place since I read the review by Stevied on this site from back in Novemeber. He mentions that the salsas are hot, and that's the way I like it. Well, finally today I did try it, and I'm sorry I waited so long. Move over, Bangkok, there is actually real Mexican food here! I went with a friend today, and between the two of us, we shared soft and crispy tacos, burritos, a quesadilla and quacamole and chips with salsa. None disappointed. I personally did not think that the salsas were overly hot; they will only offend the most delicate of palates. As for me, I am insane about heat. And the wait staff was more than happy to adjust the heat to my tastes WITH FRESH INGREDIENTS. Simply delicious. Reasonable prices, too. The atmosphere? Well, it is not so flashy, kinda quaint actually. Our waitress was engaging .. well more than that, she was a lot of fun. Of course, not all is perfect. Today, the margaritas were on special, so they got by with it, but the normal price for beer and booze is too high. When I go for a relaxing meal, I want to sit back and enjoy it with a drink or four. It is hard to enjoy at 100+ baht for a 330 ml beer or 160 baht for a margarita. They should at least have a daily happy hour. (The margaritas are pretty darn good, though!) This food is perhaps the best Mexican in Bangkok. Best I have had, by far. So on that strength, it should rate a 5-star. But the expensive drinks and lack of a DAILY HAPPY HOUR do detract from the potential enjoyment factor. I rate this restaurant a 4-star.
