Welcome to the BamBite Community

မင်္ဂလာပါ — and welcome. If you're reading this, you're part of something we've been quietly building: a home in Bangkok for the Myanmar community, gathered around food, coffee, and one another.

BamBite began with a simple conviction — that the flavours we grew up with deserve a proud place here, reimagined with care and served without compromise. This first letter is our way of saying hello, and of inviting you in.

Two tables in the city

We now have two homes in Bangkok. Our Pathumwan venue sits near Rama VI, and our Udom Suk bar is on Soi Udom Suk 5 in Bang Na. Both are open Tuesday to Sunday, 7:30am until midnight — mornings for coffee, evenings for something a little livelier. Mondays we rest and reset.

Membership that gives back

Our members are the heart of BamBite. Load ฿2,000 into the BamBite Wallet and get ฿2,200 to spend, earn points on every visit, and carry your membership card right in Google Wallet — tap to check your balance and redeem in-store, no app to download. If you haven't joined yet, this is the moment.

For our makers and businesses

Food is only part of the story. Through the BamBite Network, we're connecting Myanmar-owned businesses across Bangkok — suppliers, makers, and shops — into one community marketplace. If you run a business, or know someone who does, we'd love to feature you and help you reach more of our people.

On our shelves

Alongside the menu, you'll now find “Life Beyond Success” by Dr. Myint Myint Khin — a landmark memoir from a pioneering Burmese physician, available at BamBite for ฿400. A small way to keep our stories close.

What's next

We're bringing our tables onto the platforms you already use, planning community evenings, and adding new dishes and member perks. This newsletter is where you'll hear it first — in English, ไทย, and မြန်မာ.

Come say hi

Drop by either venue, become a member, or reply to this newsletter and tell us what you'd like to see. This community is ours to build together — thank you for being here from the start.
