If you’re in a relationship, I hope you have a nice Valentine’s Day. But what the hell are you reading this article for? This is the single person’s playbook to Ekkamai on Valentine’s Day. Take your partner someplace nice and leave these places to those flying solo.
Being single on Ekkamai this Valentine’s Day is actually pretty cool. There are quite a few things to do that will keep your mind off that soul crushing loneliness…errrrrr…I mean celebrate your super awesome bachelor or bachelorette lifestyle.
The single person’s playbook to Ekkamai on Valentine’s Day
Stop 1: KKDC Café
We’ve reviewed KKDC Café on Interesting Ekkamai before and can’t say enough nice things about this new coffee shop on Soi 10. It is the perfect place to start your Valentine’s Day. Grab a coffee, we recommend the Dirty Coffee, and fuel up for fun time.
Best of all, KKDC Café is offering a THB40 discount on all drinks. And since you don’t have to impress anyone, there is no need to be embarrassed using a discount. Being single pays folks.

Stop 2: Better Burger
Fuck counting calories. At least that should be the mindset if you’re on Ekkamai celebrating Valentine’s Day in 2021. Just head to Better Burger on Soi 12 and enjoy the fact you don’t need to worry about your figure. Best of all, these burgers are basically orgasmic, so you won’t miss having a lover anyway.
We recommend the Better Double with fries and a drink (THB285). However, there isn’t a bad burger on the menu.

Stop 3: Karaoke Manekineko
For some reason, karaoke is this weirdly cathartic experience. I don’t really get it, but it just is. There is something about singing Kelly Clarkson really poorly that makes all your concerns in life disappear. You can do just that at Karaoke Manekineko in DONKI Mall.
They are one of Japan’s largest karaoke brands and this is their first branch in Thailand. It’s a really cool place, so definitely call up your single friends, pick some of your favorite songs and have fun. Oh, they also have a soft drink buffet bar. That enough is reason for me to go.

Stop 4: Lek Massage
After all that singing, it’s time to pamper yourself. Across the street from DONKI Mall is Lek Massage. Here you can indulge in a nice treatment at an affordable price. For example, you can get a 60-minute foot massage and a 30-minute head and shoulder massage for THB500.

Final Stop: Chateraise
Here’s the deal. You can’t end Valentine’s Day without dessert. But just about every place selling sweets is going to be teaming with couples. Avoid that by going to Chateraise in Gateway Ekkamai. It’s pretty much takeaway only (they do have like five bar seats) so your exposure to all the lovey-dovey stuff will be minimal. Just grab a slice of Legendary Fresh Cream Cake (THB125) and head home.
