Joined my friends to have dinner buffet at Flavors, the coffee shop of newbie hotel Renaissance Bangkok near Rajprasong intersection. Ambiance is superb, service is good, food-wise selection is narrow while quality is guaranteed.

During Thailand suffered from its worst economic turmoil in 1998, many restaurants in the region were forced to farewell from the scene. Entrepreneurs were so reluctant into new restaurant venture at that time. Except one. The Anna's Cafe.
If you are a fan of Thailand and a frequent traveler to Bangkok; I assume that you had been eaten at the original and once legendary Anna's Cafe on Soi Saladaeng, at least once, before its closure in 2006.
Five years later, the Anna returns (somehow with a swanky price tag). 1. crispy fried catfish with hot and spicy salad THB 160+ 2. deep-fried shrimp cakes THB 160+ 3. stir-fried baby kale THB 100+ 4. deep-fried trevalley with mango salad THB 340+ 5. apple crumble THB 110+ 6. sauteed calamari with salty eggs THB 160+ 7. chicken in green curry THB 160+ 8.
