In Japan, the term Kushiyaki refers to skewered meats and fresh vegetables grilled over Binchotan, or Japanese charcoal. At JUA we take this idea a few steps further. In addition to classic kushiyaki, our chefs dish out an assortment of Japanese and Korean delicasies prepared à la minute and served, tapas-style, on plates meant for sharing. This is unpretentious drinking food best enjoyed with good friends and family. Our beverage menu is a thoughtful collection of craft beers, unique wines, handcrafted cocktails, artisanal sake and rare, small-batch spirits.<br /><br />The intimate yet functional space comfortably seats up to 40 guests and is located near the Chao Praya River in Talat Noi, Bangkok’s emerging “Creative District”. The 3-story building was formerly a baan kaanphanan, or illegal gambling house, that operated for more than 25 years. JUA is a reference to the game of Siamese blackjack, otherwise known as pok daeng, and loosely translates to “hit me!” in the original Thai. The name serves as a playful tribute to the building’s nefarious past.<br /><br />JUA’s primary goal is to promote a memorable social atmosphere that encourages an after work snack, happy hour cocktails or a night out. A place to relax, unwind, and enjoy food and drink as they are meant to be enjoyed, in a immaculately-designed space that combines the spirit of Osaka’s backstreets with vibrant energy and laidback soul of Bangkok’s old town.<br /><br />Taste of Bangkok – Discover Bangkok’s eclectic mix of culinary cuisines and urban culture.<br />Real Lives – Real People<br /><br />Questions/Comments<br />Email : info@theworldtaste.com<br />Website : www.theworldtaste.com<br /><br />#thailand #bangkok #bkk #foodie #foodporn #foodgasm #nom #youtube #youtuber #vimeo #video #series #photography #videography #vlog #food #production #postproduction #travelbug #travel #wanderlust #exploretheworld #tastebkk #jua #japanaese #teaser #chetadkins
