simcity Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 What is some of the best buffets in Bangkok ? I try The Meridian few times ( ok, good ) The Marriott ( with this one I was terribly disappointed ) plus many other cheaper , looking at around 2000 to 3000 baht a head this time ! Perhaps Sukhothai for Sunday brunch ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stickman Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 The Sheraton Grande is my personal favourite. 990 baht ++. Directly across the road is Westin Grande, also excellent at 950 baht ++. Royal Orchid Sheraton on the river is very similar although Sheraton Grande on Suhkumvit has better food. I think the Plaza Athenee buffet at 1,400 baht ++ is over-priced. Quality and selection no better than the first two listed here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dantilley Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 "Corkscrew" has posted pics and a small review of most buffets in town and so he's probably the expert. Maybe try PMing him... Haven't been to many myself, but I heard the Marriott on Sukhumvit Soi 2 (i.e. not the riverside one) is generally considered the best - so am surprised you were disappointed by it, OP, assuming it's that Marriott you're referring to. Shangri-La I've also heard is very good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimmyTheMook Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 The Sheraton Grande is my personal favourite. 990 baht ++. I'll second that, and amazing layout of quality food. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really would dispute this. the Marriott's buffet is a real let down and just doesn't compare with so many others. I have tried it three times - and won't be going back, even if someone else is paying! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LtLOS Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 Over many many years been to about all of them, but I can say for consistency, quality of offering and best value you can't beat Otto's (Bei Otto) Sunday Brunch. Now having said that it is not a comparible offering to most large hotels, with regards to a very wide variety, but still number one in my book.

sendbaht Posted July 15, 2007 Share Posted July 15, 2007 I've been to many buffets and it at times shows. My all thime favorite is the J.W.Marriott for lunch. I've had some of the best food and company there. Great memories.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chinthee Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Went to the much vaunted Sheraton Grande (Sukhumvit) Sunday buffet brunch today. It was OK. But, I found it quite overpriced for Bangkok. Price was 1600B + taxes, etc., came to nearly 1900 Baht/pp. That did not include the free flow wine, beer, booze, etc., which would have added another 600+ to the tab per person. High points: free parking, live jazz trio, some oysters, lots of different salmon, antipasti... Low points, no great prepared dishes per se, lots of misc. things. Overall. Price ok if comparing to other 5 star hotel buffets in Asia, HK, SG, etc.. Seems too excessive for Bangkok. Also, the Starwood hotel preferred card will not get you a discount, you have to subscribe to the special Starwood Priviledge card, and that only gets you a 25% discount.

I know you said "Bangkok," but the Sofitel Hotel in Khon Kaen serves the best buffet I have ever had in Thailand......fantastic, wonderful food, both farang and Thai food. I have not eaten at the Sofitel Hotel in Bangkok, but perhaps they have the same set-up there. Also, the setting/surroundings are very nice. I love it.....nothing negative to say (jeeezz....that is not like me....something must be wrong). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stickman Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 I made it to the Sheraton Grande on Saturday night for the buffet and I see they have put their prices up AGAIN! Honestly, 2.5 years ago it was 840 baht ++ for the buffet whereas now it is 1,150 baht ++. There have been four price increases in that time...and I have not noticed any changes in the buffet at all. OK, the one change is that the dessert selection is not quite as good as it once way. Frankly, even with the discount card, it is now on the steep side.

simcity Posted October 4, 2007 Author Share Posted October 4, 2007 Well as I start this post , I am adding something : For my 50 birthday I went to Sukothai buffet on Sunday! Place is ok, food you have three type of smoked salmon / foie gras / pasta bar / lamb roast , good selection of bread , very nice cheese and nice dessert ! What I did not like is : i order a bottle of champagne at 5500+++ baht no vintage Paul Roger, but the waiter poor it to fast and to much on the glass , like it was water ! The bottle was finish under few moment, and big smile came asking if want one other to be chill ! I really feel push to the consummation to the extreme. We have 2 glass of red after , a pino at I think 500 baht a glass I should have done Sukothai 7 years ago, when it was on the top of the scale, I will not be back, pretty expensive the bill was 14000 baht ( 3 people ) but was special occasion ! One of my favourite place if anyone know are : JE NGOR’S KITCHEN ( SI-PHAYA) Next time, I will like to try the four season ( nearly same price , but I think wine include ) and landmark as I got good report !
