Made by experts like Buntanes “Pop” Direkrittikul, these cocktails might just cap off your incredible Bangkok getaway.

 

Starting off an incredible career

 

The talented yet untapped resource, Buntanes “Pop” Direkrittikul started his career at Eat Me. A prominent eatery in the Bangkok dining scene, Eat Me has been serving customers a flavourful experience for almost two decades.

 

A Definite Stopover

 

While the many riverside restaurants in Bangkok keep up with the much-loved reputation for sumptuous delicacies in the capital, Eat Me offers a chic vibe with a jaw-dropping collection of food and beverages. Those who are based at nearby accommodation options such as Anantara Riverside Bangkok Resort should not forget to sip a cocktail or two here after a sumptuous dinner.

 

Learned from the best

 

Buntanes Direkrittikul’s chance to shine came just as the former head bartender at Eat Me resigned. He had the greatest opportunity of learning from an industry star, the prominent bar consultant, Joseph Boroski.
