Catalan chef Roger Solé-Masoliver has turned his passion for Japanese cuisine into a bold, high-end concept that’s made Fuego a modern classic on Bangkok’s fine dining scene.

At Sushi Akazu, exlusivity isn’t just a concept, it’s a ritual. Hidden behind a discreet door, this minimalist sanctum seats barely a dozen diners, each privy to an intimate culinary performance orchestrated by Chef Masahiro Misaki.

This is the new favorite hangout of young Bangkokians who are drawn to its vibrant, Instagrammable aesthetic (and the markers provided to doodle on the glasses).

You’d never guess that the staircase of this modest little building leads to such a magical place.

With its tattooed chef and loud music, this place has naturally become a staple of Bangkok’s wild party scene.
