Art Exhibitions at Eat Me

From the very beginning we had wanted to have art exhibitions at Eat Me. My sister Cherie and I had dreamed of having a cool little arty space of our own and the thing that first attracted us about Café Bongo was the arty vibe. The first artist who we showed at Eat Me was that…

So Then We Opened A Restaurant

When we first moved into the building that we found for Eat Me, just off Convent Road in Silom, the structure was about 25 years old or so, so dating to the early to mid 1970s. It had some ugly design elements but we got rid of them, however, there are aspects of the original place…

Finding a Home for Eat Me

After that night at Telephone Bar when Eat Me was born, I frogmarched Chef A up and down Convent Road, Silom, and along almost every side street between the river and Sukhumvit 30, looking for a home for our new restaurant. My sister Cherie and I spent a year developing the project, travelling back and…

The Night That Eat Me Was Born

I first stumbled across Convent Road in early 1997 and I was smitten with the lovely, leafy street with these towering trees. I had heard about a restaurant on Convent Road where there was an art exhibition after I bumped into an artist who was handing out postcards for his show. The restaurant was Café…

Bangkok Streets: Convent Road

Eat Me is located on a lively little soi – what the Thais call a narrow sidestreet or lane – off lovely, leafy Convent Road. It’s one of my favourite Bangkok streets. It’s in the middle of Bangkok’s business district and yet it borders one of the city’s busiest entertainment areas in Silom on one…

Eat Me Is In The Media Again

We’re all delighted here at the restaurant to see that Eat Me has been in the media again in two stories focused on our fantastic neighbourhood, Bangkok’s vibrant Silom and Sathorn areas. As the articles say, when we moved in all those years ago there wasn’t much more than street food here, so we’re excited…

24 NOV – 28 FEB 2015 Eat Me Restaurant is very pleased to announce an exhibition of portraits of professional Muay Thai fighters, by the Australian-born artist Troy Schooneman, who has been based in Thailand for over a decade. ‘Warlords’ most immediately distinguishes itself with the fact that these fighters are émigrés to Thailand.

Eat Me Art: THE HOUSE OF THE RAJA by Spanish photographer, Xavier Comas

4 AUG – 13 NOV 2014 Forgotten in Thailand’s troubled Deep South, stands a dilapidated wooden palace once home to a Malay ruler, the last of his dynasty. Locals call it the ‘House of the Raja’, a place suffused with loss and solitude, laden with the region’s glorious past and tragic present. Intrigued by this…

Eat Me Art: The Enigma of Order by Rado Klose

3 FEB – 30 MAR 2014 Eat Me Restaurant is very pleased to announce an exhibition of new works by British photographer Rado Klose. Taking a cue from the human instinct to find pattern in the seemingly random, Klose’s photographs explore the man-made environment in a manner akin to the recognition of constellations among a…
