Holidays for Couples Honeymoons, holidays & weddings in Thailand | Page 26

1PM For a different taste of Thai culture, catch a ferry boat across the Chao Phraya river to the Jam Factory. The brainchild of architect Duangrit Bunnag, a former factory has been converted into a creative hub that houses the offices of Bunnag’s architectural firm DBALP, restaurant The Never Ending Summer, home décor shop Anyroom, and bookshop Candide, all set around a large, leafy courtyard. 6PM After disembarking, make a beeline for Viva & Aviv to snag a riverside table and watch the sunset. While the views get the most attention, spend some time perusing the evolving menu of French fusion favourites, such as the organic rocket salad and pavvmn-seared salmon and grilled Canadian lobster, washed down with a range of refreshing wines, cocktails, and – current favourite – mini taster platter of Belgian beer. 25 3PM Catch the local river ferry down to the Si Phraya Pier and then walk up to the River City (rivercitybangkok.com) complex. After browsing the many antique and arts shops, head to the dock to board the Supanniga evening cruise. The one hour trip takes you in a slow loop up the river to the Rama VIII bridge and back again, while you sip on Tattinger champagne and nibble on authentic Thai savoury snacks.
