#1 Everyday by Karmakamet
Replete with retro fittings, this is the newest cafe branch opened by Bangkok-based beauty brand Karmakamet. How it’s different from other cafes in the chain: You get to shop cool homewares and clothing, apart from their house range of scented products. Note: Only light bites are sold here, so it’s best to head here for a spot of tea.
Address: 361/1 Silom 7 Alley, Suriya Wong, Bang Rak

#2 Karmakamet Diner
Opened by the same folks behind Everyday by Karmakamet, this branch has a more rustic feel, with dark wood interiors, old-fashioned lanterns, and an apothecary-themed store space stocking its popular perfumes and sprays. Head here for wholesome mains like linguine with a sprinkling of lemon zest and burgers served with Indian spices.

The decor: Minimalist, with monochromatic posters on its walls and naked lightbulbs dangling from the ceiling.

With two Michelin-trained chefs behind the menu, you can be sure a meal here is worth every penny.
