Upper Sukumvit | Thong Lor, Ekamai and Beyond
Thong Lor & Ekamai

Thong Lor and Ekamai has become the playground of the wealthier young Thai elite and the area has numerous clubs and bars that are happy to satisfy the requirements of this elite set. The clubs are generally cool looking bars with no dance floors but plenty of dancing going on. The clubs fill up early and often - the better ones are full every night (consult the map or club descriptions for details). Places like Escudo, Booze and Santika are never empty.

The area also has plenty of dining available, though often less obvious as many restaurants are either small or hidden away in small side streets. This does however not mean that quality dining is not available. Whether you are looking for Thai, Indian, Italian, Chinese or French cuisine, this area offers numerous options for this and much more. Alongside the more stylish venues are also more local restaurants serving great value, especially Thai cuisine in simple surroundings. As the nights turn late, look for the street side noodle shops to attract crowds of hungry clubbers for a good night meal.
