Fukuoka cocktail bar opens in Bangkok - SilverKris

"Opened on 3 April as the second outpost of Yoshimitsu Obara’s genre‑blurring concept, this five‑floor Bangkok venue operates as much as a lifestyle label as it does a bar — known for signature coffee cocktails, music collaborations and fashion drops. About 30% of the Bangkok menu is new while core drinks like the espresso martini remain; inventive, narrative fusion cocktails draw on tropical fruits, Asian herbs and local spirits, including a distinct green curry cocktail (Khob Khun Krab) that differs from the Fukuoka recipe. The location near Phrom Phong BTS gives the team space to stage events, collaborations with local bartenders and musicians, brand crossovers and releases on an in‑house label, all aimed at mixing the cultures and people of Fukuoka and Bangkok." - James P.
