                <description><![CDATA[This is the best cappuccino I've found in Bangkok, and the only place in the city I've ever ordered a second cup. Down a little alley, suddenly you reach this place, all big glass windows overlooking the river with a view over to Wat Arun. The cappuccinos come with a proper big froth rising above the top of the cup, slightly burnt around the edges.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Bangkok is actually a very hip place; the people are entrepreneurial and have a great sense of style. Playground is a mini-mall with a great magazine selection, a couple of cafes and a good restaurant on the top floor, a bookstore, clothes, great regular art shows and other designy things to look at.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[If you want to drink coffee on a budget in Bangkok and you can't stand instant or the prices at Starbucks, then kaafae thung (a local filter coffee) is for you. <br><br>It is sold by street vendors and is drunk with condensed milk and sugar or honey. <br><br>It can also be drunk iced; the steaming brew is deposited, Thai style, in a plastic bag full of ice tied up with a rubber band. The coffee is then drunk through a straw. <br><br>You have to state that it is the kaafae thung you want (pronounced kar-fay tueng) or your vendor will automatically serve up the more expensive western instant. Sometimes served with a savoury, dunking style doughnut.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[When in Bangkok airport don't queue for coffee in a throwaway cup at the self-service point on the main concourse. Co to the Thai restaurant where a waiter will bring you coffee in a cup and saucer at the same price. Peaceful surroundings and good food too.]]></description>
