sabaijai Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Re Baan Klang Nam....Sabaijai... their oysters look anything like this??? Baan Klang Nam has several locations, and also a decent web site.... As a matter of fact they looked exactly liked that, and delicious they were. I forget the price because I was with Thai friends and we ordered quite a tableful of food but if I had to guess, based on prices at similar-class restos around BKK, I'd say they were about 75 baht each. The branch we went to was off Rama III, very close to Saphan Khwaen. Hard to find, it's down a long narrow soi but worth the trip. I do love oysters, whether from France, New Orleans, Mexico, or Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfchandler Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 I was thinking of taking the TW for a surprise visit tomorrow to the Witch's Oyster Bar on Soi Ruam Rudee...which is real close to our home.... oysters and wine on her day off work... I'd like to go to the river myself... But she's not a big BKK traveler... So she's been ragging me lately anytime I try to drag her off to someplace (no matter how nice) that's too far away from home... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabaijai Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 I think the best oysters I ever ate were a plate of barbecued-in-the-shell at the little Marshall Store in Marshall, California, on Tomales Bay, last year. With a Napa chard, a very memorable afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zorro1 Posted August 26, 2009 Share Posted August 26, 2009 Thanks for the invite...and the info... SBK!!!What's the local Koh Phangnan place you're talking about... We do travel from time to time... I'll put it on my list.... as a little surprise for the wife sometime.... Not where I live. Tell your wife to come down for a visit sometime and we will take her to the local seafood place, serves raw oysters on the half shell (quite large too) with crispy deep fried spring onions and this really fantastic spicy garlic lemon dipping sauce. They have fish and other seafood too, so you can come too why dont they dress up a perfect Sydney rock oyster? God I miss them , maybe a dash of lemon ohhh so creamy.

They have fish and other seafood too, so you can come too Chor Chang, on the Ban Tai road, just before the bridge and the high school on the same side as the high school. The oysters are big ones like in your picture. Not sure of the price, maybe 75 baht each, maybe less? Its been awhile since we've been and my husband always pays the bill, so, to be totally honest, its just a guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sabaijai Posted August 28, 2009 Share Posted August 28, 2009 I've also eaten excellent Thai oysters on the halfshell at Khrua Nai Ban (Home Kitchen) on Soi Lang Suan. The relatively new Oyster Bar Bangkok looks promising. I counted 22 different varieties of imported oysters on the menu, including the Tomales Bay oysters I mentioned above, along with several varieties from France, Japan, Long Island, the Pacific Northwest and Portugal. http://www.theoysterbarbangkok.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bkkjames Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Speaking of oysters, I don't remember the last time i had better fin de claire than last Saturday night at Rossano's. Not cheap (fyi John only) but overall superb! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jfchandler Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Thanks for that, James... I am cheap....but I'm not easy... It's a life habit that's enabled me to lead my current life of leisure in some considerable style... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
