I want to introduce my bird to the delights of traditional English food so was wondering if anyone can suggest a good Indian restaurant, ideally away from whoreville.
Cheers in advance

Sorry, I buggered up here. What do you consider "whoresville" in BKK?
http://gothailand.about.com/od/where...indianfood.htm
I guess most Indian (Paki) restaurants are in or near to farang areas, or whoresville if you see it that way.
I also read somewhere that there are more Indian restaurants in the UK than in India, but most of them are also in farang areas.
most indian restaurants in bangkok are even filthier and more of a health hazard for the unaccustomed than the ones in india. the food being prepared by men rather than women.
those that like indian food recommend the restaurants in the pahurat area of bangkok, that's where the indian businesses and markets are to be found.

She will think the restaurant is dirty.
The staff are dirty.
The food is dirty.
And you, for taking there are dirty by association.
Used to be a really good one years ago behind Nana Plaza, but that's in one of the OP's No-Fly zones.
Honestly can't understand the whore restriction. Really limiting.
Have to say, it is an up hill struggle getting a Thai lass to enjoy indian food. It can be done on rare occassions, but definately a struggle.
They are not normally keen on the smell of the food to start, and the oily "ghee" component in particular.
If she is not already open minded and tried a few foreign cuisines, OP will have a very sad time...
Despite the rjadhamma the bhuddhism the average Thai lady hi-s or paddy plucked thinks our brothers of the sub-continent be they beeming Bengalis,Immaculte Indians oh goodness gracious me or for your good self perfect pukka Pakistani chaps in jodphurs owners of floating Palaces and and theKoh-i;Noor they wall be filthy wogs too her.
You cannot have your kek and eat in these parts.
Most Indian cuicsine 90@ is veggie and can be had at the disgucting temple side restos or Madras Lodge Silom (hairy chepo backpackers)
Chicken Peeka Masala was invented in Uk .I worled for a year at an Indian Uni and its uneard of .
Most stuff I like is Portuguese Goan chef inspred Vindaloo ( Vinho d'alho= wine and garlic used to disguise the rotten shipboard provender of old mutton,that was just the nurses)
Plau Pinang gave use Curry Kapitan
My advice take her somewhere French <italian better with white tableclothes and flunkeys if you keep off the wine no dearer than a shitty curry served by people she will disparage.
Barolo and and prawn Pizza ay Alfredos just ask for the legopener carafe as favoured by Giovanni di Condomi
The backpacker ghetto behind Wat ChanaSonghkran has a few flash packer cuury house where suc on a Shisha she'll be so amazed looking at the Trustafarians in rags dreadlocks having done Nepal on 3 rupees a day she wont notice the Cat Korma on a bed of old Okra and busladyfingers
Or Splash out 300 baht a head La Primavera,Italian ,wine by glass Herbert Austrian owner keeps it spotless and Tahi staff knw what sorbets pastas (sweet for yur lady).

Once she's sleeping ou off time for a Kebab or a sheetlifting Vindaloo with me at Nana

Mrs. Balbir's. Soi 11 Suk. Good, cheap, been there since 1975. Not in whore zone.
The only place I frequent it's equal
was Illuna on N Beach SF sadly gone or now
is the Plaza Tokyo or Chez J Pres De Gaulle's former chef a tastevin and chef sans pareils
Super Buffet | Keio Plaza Hotel Tokyo
Iluna Basque - Restaurants | Travel + Leisure
^I've eaten there a few times as well - good chow. Even better as I was never the one picking up the tab.
I know that there is a good Indian restaurant in Soi 11 but not sure if it is the same one as Davis has recommended. It's not very far from Cheap Charlie's bar and on the other side of the road. It isn't cheap but the food is good. Generally, the food in the lower numbered sois of Sukhumwit is expensive and/or rubbish, I'm afraid.
this is the place you're looking for:Originally Posted by SiLeakHunt

For no problems at all but at a very high price take her to Rang Mahal in the Rembrandt Hotel on Sukumvit 18. Nice high floor location, very hoity toity, but damn good northern Indian food. The do a brunch on Sundays. If she does not like the food, with the atmosphere, parking, then give up and do Isaan.

Dreadful website.
Any comments on the food?
does the OP ask for a good website or a good restaurant?
