MisterSandMan1 Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 Hi All, I'm up in CM for the weekend and would appreciate it if any locals can recommend a good 'Traditional' roast for tomorrow. Cost not a major issue - happy to pay more for the better of the bunch. Regards and apologies if this topic has been raised recently. Younger.

OldeBellPedr Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 We at The Olde Bell have Roast Lamb, Roast Beef, Roast Pork, Roast Chicken and vegetarian Chestnut loaf, all served with Yorkshire Puddings, Roast Potatoes, Onion Mash, Veg and Gravy. We also have combinations like our Super Sampler with all the above for the larger appetite. Prices start from 195 Baht. Lunch is available from 1pm to around 9pm. The Olde Bell is on Loi Kroh Rd, next to the Raming Lodge hotel and behind the yellow exchange booth. There are a few other options: The Pub on Huay Kaew Rd has been doing Sunday Lunches since the year dot. The Archers Bar and Sweetheart Bar do Roast Beef and Roast Pork, Gecko Garden does a Buffet Sunday Lunch and I' sure there are others I haven't mentioned. Different places have different supporters. I test our offering regularly and with my waistline, you'll see I enjoy my food! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ulysses G. Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I really like Archer's Sunday roast beef dinner. They used to be a little stingy with the portions, but from some recent pictures on Thai Visa, it looks like they have remedied that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coma Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) Since cost is not a option. May I suggest the Four Seasons Hotel. It is without a doubt, second to none in Chiang Mai. The live band plays in a great atmosphere. Four Seasons Hotel Sunday Lunch: 1,300 Baht per person including free flow of juices and soft drinks 1,800 Baht per person including free flow of juices, soft drinks, beer, martinis and Prosecco. Live jazz all afternoon at the Terraces Restaurant from 12:00 PM - 3:00 PM.

OldeBellPedr Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 I don't think any of the roast dinners in Chiang Mai will leave you hungry - everyone gives generous portions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beetlejuice Posted July 21, 2012 Share Posted July 21, 2012 (edited) Personally I have to give THE PUB the thumbs up for Sunday Roasts Just like my Mum used to make it. Outstanding I second that. A real man size traditional English roast, Yorkshire puddings, baked potatoes, mint sauce, lashings of gravey and everything, for around 250 baht. I really don`t know how the owner does it for that price. Last time I was there, there was a choice of lamb, pork and beef. I think they also do turkey on special occasions. The portions are BIG and the only thing I found skimpy were the waitresses hot pants, but no one ever complains about that. http://thepubchiangmai.com/ Edited July 21, 2012 by Beetlejuice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beer are Sa are their names! The Old Bell. i wont make this remark if it was a one off. but repeatedly shocked by the lack of respect, service and attitude of lady! I sense a stitch up double eight. Member registers on 19th July and 2 days later is slagging Beer off. Still just in case you are genuine: Are you sure that was Beer? We had a day girl who was somewhat brusque with customers and she has now departed. All I can say is that if it was my wife you must have really upset here over something. Usually she's very 'customer orientated' but if you spoke badly to her, she'd do the same back and I don't blame her. Some details would help: approximate dates, times and specifics of the incidents.

All the times I have eaten Sunday Lunch in Old Belle,The food was excellent and no problems with the service,show respect and it will be returned,I think some people feel waitresses are their slaves, The proprietor is Pedr and is from Wales I believe,not Pedro, hes defiantly not Mexican Regards Worgeordie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
