The Baristro Asian Style

Baristro Asian Style is the largest café in the Baristro group, set behind a long wall off Suthep Road, and it's laid out like a small temple compound. You pay 80 baht at the gate and spend it inside. There's a glass speed-bar pavilion, a coffee slow bar, a shoes-off matcha bar on floor cushions, a raked-gravel Japanese garden and a Lanna-style workspace. The roti with whipped cream is the house dessert. It's the most carefully designed of the chain's branches, and I think it's worth the ticket.
