    I'm always leery about eating shellfish I've not prepared myself. It does look good though!

    Thanks Tom!

    ^ I had spicy Veracruz style shrimp stew at a Mexican restaurant last week. It was good. The next morning and day not so much so. Beware.

    (Sorry, Tom. I had to share.)

    I'm not into mall dining, but the Somboon Restaurant on Suriwong is a great place to take visitors to.

    Early in the evening though - service is brisk verging on brusque.

    Fish and seafood is as good as it gets in BKK in my experience - I must have eaten there about 40 times.

    Boo Pat Pon Garee is superb.

    Yep, always went to Udom Suk, been there probably 20+ times and always curry crab as one of the dishes, always ordered too much and end up bagging some.
