the fabulous
when i walk down khao san rd, it looks virtually the same as the first time i came to bangkok in 2002. boho backpackers in wannabe beach environs, red bull tees, tribeswomen selling jangling accessories, pad thai every 10m, etc.
that's what makes the fabulous, extra-uber fabulous. this adorable coffee-dessert shop tucked away off of khao san rd is a welcome oasis of retro-style, quiet, and best of all: absence of seediness.
unlike other establishments in the area, this unique shop feels more akin to the cafes along thonglor or ekamai, flaunting its twee ambience. it's cute and it knows it. what else would you expect of a place that has an antique record player actually spinning records that don't play music?
free wifi, illy coffees (70-100+B), desserts (100-160B).
the fabulous
32 jakkapong rd, next to the true coffee shop.

in my procrastination I googled "The Fabulous Bangkok" to find out what i will order there on monday. and your blog came up! good job. but you didn't review any desserts so I still don't know what to order.
