Cool Salsa Party Nomad

Hey all,

Last night photographed at the new Nomad Restaurant and Club. It’s a Moroccan themed restaurant on Sukhumvit Soi 12. It’s a great place. The interior and decoration rivals Gazebo. The building is split into two sections. There’s a restaurant with nice tables and chairs and a cool looking outdoor seating area. The club portion is stunning. Nice ceiling and wall decorations with some modern photography on the walls.

I met the director Myriam. She’s a really nice lady and was very friendly.

I don’t know if the drinks were specialy priced for the Salsa night, but my Singha was only Baht 110 which is pretty good for such a nice looking place. I saw two ladies order mixed drinks at only Baht 200 a piece for a Mojito and Cosmo.

The event was thrown by Latinos Sabotaje. I met Carlos, an organizer for the events. Really cool group and they throw Latin-style parties around Bangkok throughout the week. Apparently there’s quite a network of dancers for these things, because the people present last night could dance. People were quite serious about it too, they brought special shoes and outfits. There were people on hand to teach beginners too though which is a nice touch.

The photos were shot for Lifestyleasia.com. Gallery Here.
