Affordable christmas eve dinner for two

[iammarilou]

Hello,

Christmas is just around the corner. Anyone has any idea where to get an affordable Christmas eve dinner for two overlooking the river? Or any place with a nice view?

This is our first Christmas in Bangkok and is staying in a hotel so cooking Christmas meal like I usually do is not an option.

Thanks.

what do you consider affordable?

Mandarin Oriental does a nice spread.

The Peninsular...excellent food and a great outdoor setting on the river.

I remember having a couple of really good buffets for special holiday events, like Loy Khratong, at the Marriott on the riverside (next one north of the Oriental). But last time was probably 6 years ago and they were hardly cheap at about 1,500 baht a head - but with stuff like all you could eat steaks, lobster and large prawns on offer plus a very wide variety of Asian fusion and western (I think there may even have been some free wine involved too) I thought it good value and with a nice riverside setting.

Oriental would be much more expensive (but excellent) and Peninsular was also always a favourite. Never had Christmas in Bangkok in those days but I'm sure they will 'do Christmas lunch'. Possibly booked out by now though

Those were the days - business expense account days!

All of those places have been doing a 999 Baht 3 course special this month....I think it runs out on the 21st though.
