GAA Opened by Noma-trained chef Garima Arora, Gaa is the new restaurant on everyone’s lips. Two seasonal tasting menus are made mostly of ingredients found along the strip of land from Northeast India to Bangkok, blending modern techniques with traditional cooking methods. Top tip: skip the wine and opt for the juice-pairing packages instead, which include freshly pressed juices and house-made kombucha. Open for dinner only. gaabk.com

Warehouse 30 This recently unveiled creative and retail hub consists of 43,000sqft of abandoned World War Ii-era warehouses. From a co-working space to indie boutiques, cafes, juice bars and hip dining options, expect it to become Bangkok’s next hipster hotspot. openbox.in.th/warehouse-30 Alfresco 64 Bangkok knows how to do sky-high rooftop bars. The latest place to see and be seen is Alfresco 64. Sitting 800 feet in the air on the 64th floor of the Tower Club at Lebua, it is the highest outdoor whisky bar in the world, and grants breathtaking views of the city’s skyline and the Chao Phraya River. lebua.com.alfresco-64

chinatown You might not think of Chinatown as a destination for discerning drinkers, and yet this area counts some of the most interesting bars in town: Tep Bar puts a Thai spin on well concocted libations using potent local spirits; Ba Hao is Chinese-themed both in its striking interiors and its drink menu; and the 16-seater Teens of Thailand has earned a cult following for its gin infusions made from whatever the owners find in the neighbouring stores of Chinatown. 6 Yaowarat Rd, Samphanthawong
