Busy is one word to describe the Bangkok Thai Restaurant, located just off the Rembrandtplein. As we took our place in the lobby to wait for a table, I was enticed by the wonderful smells wafting from the open style kitchen. After about 5 minutes, our hostess dressed in a beautiful traditional Thai skirt, led us to an intimate table by the wall. The floor was laid with salmon coloured tiles, accented with pink walls and a dramatic pigeon blood red ceiling, completed the exotic décor. As I sipped my jasmine tea, I had a hard time deciding what to order, but decided on the “ Lumpia”, chicken spring rolls as an appetizer, while Drew opted for the chicken and coconut milk soup. My spring rolls arrived, hot and crispy, delicately seasoned with a sweet and spicy sauce for dipping. Drew’s soup was full of tender chunks of chicken and the combination of the tangy lemon grass and coconut milk, was absolutely delicious.

For our main course we chose to share the Pork Pad Thai and a Shrimp and Pineapple dish. Both of us loaded our plates, and our server also brought us a huge dish of sticky rice . The Pad Thai was very tasty, slightly sweet and the pork was extremely tender. My favourite was the huge shrimp which were perfectly cooked, tail on and tangled with enormous chunks of fresh pineapple. Needless to say, we didn’t have any room for desert, after this feast!
Bangkok has a wonderful menu, coupled with attentive service, so I would highly recommend it if you are looking for quality Thai dining.
Our total bill came to 47.85 EU…and worth every penny!
