"buffer zone" = have an image of downtown BKK being a wild area with noise and action 24/7. I'd like to be away from the center where Im not a sardine squeezed into can. I guess a little more remote location, while still being in the hairy part.

I'm renting a nice 2 bedroom appartment pretty much in downtown bkk (Sukhumvit soi 2). I'm in the end of a dead-end street 5 min walk from a main artery and its very quiet most of the time. Also, you dont want to take a 1 hour taxi ride each day you want to go out or go to a nice restaurant. Bangkok is huge, and the traffic can be very slow. The nice thing about my place is that I can go to most daily places walking, and the big shopping-cinema areas are a 10 min taxi ride.

Also, most bars close at 2 am...

i stayed at the atlanta hotel at the end of soi 2 for about a month when i first arrived. its a very nice little hotel and has a nice pool and resteraunt downstairs. if you dont know, a motorcycle taxi to take you to plenchit bts instead of the end of the soi, much faster than having to walk to nana BTS.

I have a free tuk-tuk ride to sukhumvit, I'm in Amar Garden in case you know. I may try the restaurant you talk about when I want to have a quick meal. And Degen, thanks for the tip, sometimes I want another beer at 2 am, because its too damn early to end a night sometimes.
