Modern-Day Culture

What is it? A bar from friends who have collected records for more than 20 years and want to show that vinyl remains part of contemporary listening, not a relic. Old and new sit side by side.

Why we love it: The room combines classic details with a current look, while records are selected to complement what is in your glass. Signature and classic cocktails join natural wines, with many drinks drawing on Thai herbs and ingredients. The pairing makes Modern-Day Culture welcoming to curious newcomers as well as committed collectors. 

Time Out tip: Try the craft cocktails built around traditional Thai herbs, botanical tea blends and old medicinal recipes. They give the list a distinct local character and pair neatly with the night’s selections.
