Dr. Burrito Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 (edited) I ran across a little gem of a Thai restaurant close to my abode the other day,and since these people seem like such nice folk and have great food, thought I would pass it along. The place is on Lad Phrao 35, which connects my street to Lad Phrao, so I drive right past it on the way home. It's owned by a farang and his Thai wife, very nice people indeed. The name is Krua Sang Dao, about half a kilometer on past Bale, if you are coming from Lad Phrao on the rght hand side. I admit, at first I thought I had found a new karaoke place, as there lights ablaze and so I stopped. No karaoke in sight though, but I was surprised as heck when I was greeted by this older than me farang who seemed very happy to see another farang. There were quite a few customers, but I was the only whitey. They serve a bit of an Isan style menu, but is some of the most cleanly prepared food I have had in a while. Not oily, not overdone, just frankly, nice. The guy serves Beer Lao and some very Isan type music by a live band. I know its a blatant plug for them, but hey, I think they deserve it. He's about as sociable a guy as I have met in a long time. Seems he used to live in Los Angeles. Guess he and the missus met there but are now back here. I had a great time and walked away a few pounds heavier for almost nothing, all things considered. Can't speak highly enough of the place and them. And no, he is not me.

llz Posted August 22, 2007 Share Posted August 22, 2007 I especially love the Beer Lao part ... Latphrao 35 being quite long, how far is it from Latphrao Street ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Burrito Posted August 23, 2007 Author Share Posted August 23, 2007 I guess it' close onto a kilometer. All I know is if you go from Lad Phrao, then you go to that hard left and hard right (close to Siam Legal). After that, its about a couple hundred yards up on the right. They have parking across the street. They've done the place up very northern style, a bit open air and a bit inside. Still developing I guess, but its a nice place to stop on the way home and to take the family too as well. Dr. B Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
