Sparkles Sweet Life, New Cupcakery – Bangkok
September 10th, 2012
Sapphire cupcake, the color is obtained from a natural flower (try and guess which flour & flower are used)
Sparkles Sweet Life
Sukhumvit Soi 53 (between Soi 5 & Soi 9)
Tel. 081-136-3367
Hours: 12-8pm; Sun 12-6pm
Of Course: No Trans-Fats,
only fresh, quality ingredients are used
The powder blue and silver theme that Sophie (the owner who originated the brand) used in her first shop on Sukhumvit Soi 53 just a few meters away from the Thonglor BTS Station, and across the street from Bangkok Prep School, now called Sparkles Boutique, has been brought over to the new store Sparkles Cupcakery, that has a much larger bakery space and is situated mid-way up Sukhumvit, Soi 53 between Soi 5 & Soi 9.
Her cupcakes and interior designs have been copied before and probably will be again, although this time around, it will be a more difficult undertaking, as the ceiling has a running motif of silver flowers which, are all applied by hand, a project that took weeks and weeks to complete. To all you “copycats” out there in the bakery business, just try duplicating this one and you will find out for yourselves!
A very tedious job that never ends as the silver flowers need to be cleaned so they won’t tarnish
If it’s not Sparkles, it’s just a cupcake.

Dalian Chinese Restaurant from Japan – Bangkok
August 8th, 2012
Dalian, Unit G-1 39 Boulevard Building, Soi Sukhumvit Rd. at Soi Prom Chit
Tel: 02-160-0306
Dalian restaurant is serving Chinese cuisine, Japanese-style as presented by Chef Ryo Haneji. They have at least two branches in Japan at Azabu Jyuban and at Yokohama in Chinatown.
The cooking is quite good and the prices quite low and in fact, 8-10 prawns bathed in chilli sauce at 420 THB is an amazing price even though shrimp is ubiquitous in this part of the world. They are also know for their gyoza joined together by a caramelized net – unique!
Pay a visit to this place, I know you will be pleased and the map below will make it easier to find.
