Baru Za is a very nice and elegant bar and restaurant in the Silom Suriwongse area of Bangkok. They have a modern-style look and feel, and some really great dishes to choose from on their menu. They have happy hour everyday from 2-9pm (it’s buy 1 get 1 free drinks), although the prices are a bit high, for example an order of the famous Thai spicy shrimp soup named “Tom Yum Kung” is 190 baht, not much, but noticably more expensive than most other restaurants. With that being said, I must mention, it’s WELL WORTH IT! The food is great! And they have inside area for those of you who want aircon, and outside for those who want to smoke their nasty cigarettes hehe

The Menu: Consists of japanese cuisines, many thai dishes, curries, international foods, spaghetti, and many soups and salads
