Even if you're not staying over, breakfast on the riverfront terrace of Bangkok's venerable grande dame, the 150-year-old Mandarin Oriental hotel, is a rite of passage for anyone passing through the storied part of town. It's a silver-cutlery, white-tablecloth affair, with a menu of made-to-order eggs, Thai noodles, and cinnamon-dusted french toast, alongside a room-spanning buffet that runs the gamut from perfectly flakey pastries to gem-cut tropical fruits and a dizzying array of cold cuts and cheeses. 

The Mandarin Oriental's iconic bar, The Bamboo Bar is the place to be. We love this historic bar for the jazzy vibe and amazing drinks.
