    The name comes from the physics of waves, sound and ocean both, which tells you something about how seriously this cocktail bar takes its own ideas. The bartender behind it ran both Vesper and Backstage before opening here on Thong Lo's second floor, and the drinks carry that pedigree, landing on Asia's 50 Best Bars at number five. Playful without being gimmicky, and worth lingering over.

    The dishes from the writeups

    • Ready! Aim! Fire!

      “Spicy margarita lovers will meet their match in Ready! Aim! Fire!: a bold fusion of a pickleback sour and Mexican firing squad.”

      The 50
    • Morning Tijuana

      “The must-try, especially when you’re escaping the hot weather (so always), is the Morning Tijuana.”

Eat Score

The score comes from the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin star outweighs a listicle. When you sort by what's nearby, distance changes the order, never the score.

      Stay Score

      Four fifths of the score is the awards it's won, weighted by who gave them: a Michelin Key outweighs a listicle. The last fifth is where it is: the ranked places to eat and things to do around it, and how safe the country is. When you sort by what's nearby, distance from you changes the order, never the score.

          Best Place Score

          The Best Place Score rates the area around a point, not any one place. The places are 60% of it: the best of what's within reach, weighed by distance. The setting is the other 40%: how life goes in that country (how people rate their own lives, how long and how well they live, how safe they are) and what it's like right there (the air, and the weather). If the score looks low, we probably haven't found enough critics out here yet.
