Restaurants Guide Bangkok ( Thailand)

June 24, 2011 - PRLog -- Mango Tree, off Th Surawong, offers classic Thai cuisine and live traditional music surrounded by historical photos and antiques. Recommended dishes include plaa samlii dàet diaw (half-dried, half-fried cotton fish with spicy mango salad) and kài bai toei (chicken baked in pandanus leaves).
A good one-stop eating place with a lot of variety is the Silom Village Trade Centre, an outdoor shopping complex at Soi 24. Although it' s basically a tourist spot with higher than average prices, the restaurants are of high quality and plenty of Thais dine here as well. Silom Village is the centerpiece with a shaded pavilion, outdoor tables and a menu of fresh seafood, and Chinese and Japanese dishes. Also in the trade centre, Silom Coffee Bar makes a good choice for a quick and casual meal.
Somboon Seafood  is a famous, reasonably priced seafood restaurant known for the best crab curry in town. Soy-steamed sea bass (plaa kràphong nêung is also a speciality.More restaurants: http://booking-thailand.net/hotel-bangkok.html
Mizu's Kitchen has a loyal Japanese and Thai following for its inexpensive Japanese food, including Japanese-style steak. The place self-consciously evokes an Italian trattoria with chequered tablecloths and a crooning Sinatra as background music.
Harmonique Or, around the corner from the main post office, is a tiny but refreshing oasis in this extremely busy, smog-filled section of town. European-managed and un¬obtrusive, the little shop serves Thai food, French and Chinese bread plus a variety of tea, fruit shakes and coffee on Hokkien-style marble-topped tables — a pleasant spot to read while quenching your thirst.
Sara-Jane's, about 100m southeast off Th Sathon Tai, has the same
fantastic Isan and Italian food as the original .This branch has an outdoor eating area and beer garden, as well as indoor air-con seating. It's not far from the Chong Nonsi Sky train station, and you can easily cross busy Th Sathon.More info about accommodation Bangkok: http://booking-thailand.net/bangkok.html
The Blue Elephant  got its start in Brussels more than two decades ago as an exotic outpost of royal-Thai cuisine. After spreading to other foreign city's, The Blue Elephant boldly chose Bangkok, the cuisine' s birth mother, as its 9th location. Set in a refurbished SinoThai colonial building with service fit for royalty, this newcomer promises fine dining within striking distance of the city's luxury hotels. Skip the set meals and choose wisely from the extensive menu of modernised ancient dishes — which range from idiot to savant. The salmon lâap (salad with mint leaves) and mesquitish phàk bûng fai daeng (stir-fried greens) are divine, while the Muslim (Matsaman) lamb curry is too sweet. The Blue Elephant is near St Louis Hospital at the Surasak Skytrain station.
