A winter respite-at lightning speed in Thailand

 The restaurant name comes from S'mores, a common dessert often made during camping season in the United States, in which marshmallows are grilled on a stick, put between two crackers and topped with caramel or chocolate.

As is to be expected, S'more is the restaurant's signature dessert. Not only is it tasty but also great fun for the uninitiated. Apart from that, the restaurant offers an extensive selection, including salads, steak, pasta and pancakes with stuffing, all presented in a haphazard manner, but very tasty. Its craft beers and herbal tea are also well worth a try.

For afternoon tea on your last day in Bangkok, there is no better choice in Central World than Simply W, a sub-brand of Whittard of Chelsea, an English tea brand founded in 1886. Simply W offers authentic French pastries and a selection of coffee and tea drinks.

The icing on the cake of this short trip is an early dinner at Mejico, where you can get an authentic taste of Mexican food and drinks in a modern-style setting that is characterized with wooden furniture, black and pink light shades and exciting music.

Its thick menu contains a huge range of choice, and every dish I had remains in the memory more than a month after I enjoyed them.
