Ben's Bangkok

Bangkok done properly: chase the $2 noodle bowls and street tom yum, hit the new-wave Thai rooms (Sam Lor, Charmgang, Small Dinner Club), and when you're sick of Thai go for yakitori at JUA or duck at Pepe. Get into Sorn if you can, drink at Asia Today and Chenin, and sit by the pool at Soho House with a Pad Kra Pow.
