Who Makes The Best Martini On/off Silom Rd?

[tgf7]

I have been looking for a great vodka martini for years now....like the type you would get at a great steakhouse in the USA. I work near Patpong.

Good luck. I've been trying to teach Thai bartenders to make martinis for nearly fifteen years and they seem to be utterly immune from grasping any part of the concept.

I think the heart of it is that the essence of the great American martini is generosity and you can never break a Thai bartender of measuring everything out carefully with a jigger. You've got to order a triple to even have a shot of getting a decent drink.

As long as you're in Thailand you'll have to make your own martinis.
