Pretty hip clothes, and very enjoyable night out the last time I was there. 
Where is Mehang? It sounds like another great little haunt. |
Mehang is just next to the open air market (talat). Entry via the main road. The upmarket mall is called Villa Festival Mall or something like that. Save yourself some baht and buy from the street vendors unless your tilak knows her stuff
555... forget to add why tiz place is recommended... less likely to bump into someone u know!

Its called "Ratchayothin" coz I think its at the junction of Phaholyothin & Ratchada roads. Anyway I also got it wrong; told taxi driver "Major Phaholyothin" but he brought me to the correct place without further Q's

In order of preference when checking fares: The 3 budget airlines, Cathay webby, Swiss Air webby and if have time Mustaffa! Think now Tiger & Jet Star r promoting their fares very aggressively but tink Tiger is cheaper for the moment.
