I loved Suan Lum, for me it was a really great place eating out cheap and let the kids run. I even enjoyed the entertainment there. Can you please suggest a nice place with thai food, child friendly, live music,open air and in the sathorn area? ( i miss Suan Lum)

I think it will be very hard to find a place like Suan Lum night bazaar.

We went there often in the past, always had a good relaxed time, decent choice of food, beer, and a live band, busy every time till the redshirts occupied Lumpini park, that killed it.

Not found anywhere that comes close, think you need to forget the past and look for something different.
