Then take the hotel’s boat across the river to feast on a traditional Thai tasting menu while watching a classical Thai dance show at the Sala Rim Naam. The historic hotel is about to unveil a multimillion-dollar renovation that will touch every part of the property except the famed Author’s Wing, which once hosted Somerset Maugham, Joseph Conrad, and other writers. Bangkok’s hotel scene is hotter than ever, thanks to a slew of openings and renovations of heritage hotels.

AUTHENTIC THAI FOOD

So not only am I teaching or exposing them to the soul culture, but I want to be the catalyst of understanding that soul is about feeding, soul is about giving, soul is about nurturing. If you lived in Los Angeles between the mid-1990s and 2011 or so, you will likely remember Youngwood Court aka the House of the Davids, in Hancock Park. In the same neighborhood where a cross was burned in Nat King Cole’s yard, it was impossible not to see racism afoot when the neighbors filed a court case against Norwood’s home improvements. TV crews showed up at his door, and Johnny Cochran called and offered to defend him.

The disadvantages to that was I felt like I was in a hotel room. It was beautiful, it was big, but you know I felt like I was in a hotel room for a year. It was not Norwood-ized, at all, so I knew that it was part of the process. You couldn’t hang anything up on the wall — it was just like a hotel. So I did have incidents but because I’m such a positive person, it didn’t affect me as much. By the same token, I had the luxury of being out of the country a lot.

And being honest, there were more good times than there were bad. I created some amazing relationships, I did some amazing things, but at some point, things have to evolve. Bangkok House Restaurant features a blend of high quality, authentic Thai cuisine and warm hospitality in a sophisticated yet traditional setting.

If you’re feeling adventurous, head to the Yaowarat Street Night Market in Chinatown, which is lined with food vendors and seafood restaurants hawking delicacies. The area surrounding the notoriously raucous Khao San Road is also full of restaurants and bars. Tucked away on a narrow lane, you’ll find the hip spot Madame Musur, which serves affordable Thai food and drinks in a space adorned by low-slung chairs, traditional kapok cushions, and trinkets from the owner’s travels. Err is a casual-chic spot serving authentic Thai cuisine by the team behind Michelin-starred restaurant Bo.lan. They were mad that you cut down some trees to install the statues?

When in Bangkok, you can’t miss the Grand Palace and the opulent Buddhist temples in the historic city center. Architecture fans will be in awe of the ancient hand-painted murals, buildings adorned by gold and colorful porcelain, and statues at the palace. The Israeli military has massed dozens of tanks and armored vehicles in an area of southern Israel that is close to Rafah, in apparent preparations for an invasion of the city.

Israel says it will continue military operations until Hamas is defeated and that it will retain a security presence in Gaza afterward. Hamas on Saturday released a video showing hostages Keith Siegel and Omri Miran. Both referred to the Jewish holiday of Passover, which began Monday, and called on Israel’s government to reach a deal with Hamas. Elsewhere, Israeli forces shot and killed two Palestinian men at a checkpoint in the Israeli-occupied West Bank, the military said.

Over the Saturdays, McKinney has struck up conversation – and eventual friendships – with customers who often come in during his hours. But it’s the Cronin family and the relationship they’ve built with customers that keeps him coming back every week at the exact same time. Another glitzy newcomer is the Waldorf Astoria Bangkok, which opened last year and was designed by André Fu in collaboration with AvroKO. The Sukhothai Bangkok, which has interiors draped in silk that were inspired by ancient Thai architecture. Its new Club Wing offers the ultimate luxurious suites and exclusive access to the Club Lounge, which serves complimentary afternoon tea and evening cocktails.

“It's a really kind of an awesome window into, you know – it makes you feel part of their lives a little bit because they are such a part of the community and how they're running their family business,” Lester said. Birthday parties for the siblings were almost always held in the restaurant, alongside graduation parties and Cronin’s baby shower – the storied building witnessing generations of the family flourish within its walls. Sometimes, when they come in to eat at the restaurant, she'll reminisce with them about a long-ago day when they would be answering the phone and cracking jokes with each other while their mom cooked in the back – co-workers and siblings alike. Still, Bangkok House does not ask for attention. It instead demands a keen eye and an open ear – existing as a hidden treasure along Union Street in Wilmington, burrowed between a Puerto Rican restaurant and the KFC/Taco Bell hybrid that saturates its nearby street corner with artificial light. To discover contemporary Thai design, plan to visit the Thailand Creative & Design Center, which has a library of design-focused magazines and books, hosts workshops, and provides resources to designers.

For instance, if I’m in my car, which happened to be a Rolls-Royce, or a Bentley, if I’m one of my cars and the sirens go off behind me, the anxiety goes through the roof for no reason. All my papers are intact, everything you see, and then fear sets in — are they gonna beat me up, are they gonna put knee on my chest, I can’t live my life on a daily basis like that. God did not want — I wasn’t created for that. It wasn’t to be anything other than making myself happy and making other people happy. Despite everything I don’t regret anything because I created it a whole bunch of memories that people otherwise wouldn’t have. But in terms of getting older and knowing what’s important, and … it just came with a lot of stuff.

The official said mediators are working on a compromise that will answer most of both parties’ main demands. Meanwhile, the U.S. has been building a pier to deliver aid to Gaza through a new port, which an official said last week was on track to start operating by early May. Early Saturday, an Israeli airstrike hit a house in Rafah’s Tel Sultan neighborhood, killing a couple and their sons, ages 12, 10 and 8, according to records of the Abu Yousef al Najjar hospital’s morgue. A neighbor’s 4-month-old girl was also killed, the records showed. The Israeli military has amassed dozens of tanks and armored vehicles in the south of the country, close to Rafah, and has hit locations in the city in near-daily airstrikes. Hamas has said it won’t back down from demands for a permanent cease-fire and full withdrawal of Israeli troops.

So my struggle and my move had less to do with racism than it had to do with self-survival. Many things happened at the time in L.A., but at the time I didn’t realize that they were racist. For instance, when I bought my house, that whole history of them wanting to kick me out [of Hancock Park], was racism — blatant.

A separate Hamas statement said leaders from the three main militant groups active in Gaza discussed attempts to end the war. As part of your account, you’ll receive occasional updates and offers from New York, which you can opt out of anytime. Do you remember much of the Nest interview? But I vaguely do remember being extremely excited about the Nest experience. One because it was also during the time that I was going through crap with my neighbors, and I wanted to be able to stick it to em. Where I am now, there is a little more leeway, all the furnishings were very minimal so I could Norwood-ize a bit.
