Somtum Nong Rejoice is the spot for som tam and grilled chicken, proper neighborhood joint, cheap, and always full of locals. Walk the Wang Lang market stalls across the river for curry rice and fresh roti.

They have two airconditioned indoor courts and also some outdoor courts. You can book a court and either have an instructor for lessons or a 'knocker', who will hit balls at you or whatever exercises you want to do. The knocker doesn't necessarily speak English, but it's not a problem. You can get there from Soi 26 on Sukhumvit, but it's a good walk.
