Exploring Burgers.
Burgers are a food of the gods.
Ok not really, but they should be. Meat, bun, and topping: it’s a deliciously simple combination with endless variations. After a few months in Bangkok I was worried. It seemed no matter where I went the burgers were always average (at best). But then I found Escapades. A place where you can snuggle in, roll up your sleeves and get downright dirty.
Escapades is a cozy restaurant situated along the Phra Athit road. The venue itself is quite narrow, with half of the space inside dedicated to an open bar and kitchen to which you can pull up a stool, however there are also tables in the garden which provide much more breathing space. The vibe is very chilled and the walls are covered in art and memorabilia.
 It took visiting Escapades a few times before we actually got to sink our teeth into one of their creations. We had turned up twice before, however both times they had run out of something. Burgers, buns, common sense? I don’t know, but c’mon, running out of burgers in a burger bar? Really! But instead of moaning (kidding I totally had a little moan), we took it as a sign of popularity, and swore that next time we would camp out get there early. Turns out we got there a little too early, as they don’t open until 4, but after a walk along the river our appetites, and Escapades, were ready.
