Thrones when you're away from home

See All Lists
It's no secret that I am OBSESSED with well presented public restrooms. Heck I've even used my visits to them as inspiration for my own bathroom's gentrification (Ahem Le Germain I'm looking at you) Here are some grand examples of what a proper lieu experience should be all about.

Being a sucker for modern architecture and clean lines I was drawn in to Soontorn Bahn Thai by its magnificent  facade while promenading on the Lakeshore.  Hubby excitedly pushed its huge wooden revolving door open and once we spilled inside it was…More »

Hubby and I came here for a saucy weekend away from home.  We also love Hotel Germain as they are super dog friendly and allow bigger dogs like our 60 lb Amstaff to stay for a nominal fee of $35.  We checked around at other hotels (who shall remain…More »

Was not terribly impressed by the service here.  Arriving on a Sunday afternoon about 3 ish, the place was moderately full but we could definitely see there was lots of capacity for seating.  The hostess could give a toss that we were waiting to be…More »
