Seeing this place is just like seeing a Titanic photo to me. It had so much memory of those old days my family members, old friends and colleagues and I swept across all the dishes here. Yes, and the highest record was 48 dishes for only 4 persons. Back then the place wasn't that touristic and I even went to this place with my local Thai friends.
As time went by, and as more and more hotels have been built in Siam area, this place as in such a noticeable location in Siam as well as its typical Thai decoration, has become more and more commercial.
So on a recent night that it was about to rain, we had an improvised visit to this place. Inside it didn't change much but the clientele is very foreign. The food is not bad and actually it's quite unexpected to see it's maintained at certain level, though not the best. What's even more unexpected is that they didn't increase the prices much, as it could have had.

me too, many good memory there
food is both good for tourists and okay for locals, one of the best tourist-palate friendly restaurants in town, at below Siam area standard price ..
i stop going there for years, is because of its very noisy and lousy background live (traditional Thai) music .. (the owner shall pay a little more to hire a better musician)
Each persons eats 12 dishes? Wow really broke the record.
The amazing is that you can stay so fit with all these good food constantly...... Amazing.
I think we also stopped going to this place due to the Thai music.
SS, that was almost 15 years ago.... :)
You really can eat 15 years ago.
Forgot mentioning the other 3 were super turbo friends, including Madam Fa. She was so powerful back then.
if Chris joined us eating in the old days (say, 15 years ago), he will be considered a very very small eater then .. hehe
I can match you guys 15 years ago.
I used to compete with guys in eating and they always lost.
Just for rice I can eat 5 bowls.
For piggy bread 3 rounds of refills.
And half loaf of Garden's Life Bread as snack.
Then half box of See's Candy in one day.
No need to say one pint of Haggen Dazs in one take.
Har... but how come I didn't see you so powerful on our previous trips?
Or SS you are speaking obo Chris?
That was 15 years ago Sea.
Now I only eat 70% as maximum due to low metabolism. I also want to lose some weight.
Chris never eat as much as I did before. And I don't want him to know about this.
You should let Chris know because that would tell him you need to exercise to keep your current shape. :)
