The Thai Place: Chaophraya

Chaophraya is a Thai restaurant located right in the heart of Buchanan Street in The Townhouse building. As you walk in it does not look like restaurant. It is very grand stairway with stunning interior of Buddhas and elephants.

Chaophraya serves a wide range of Thai food to accommodate everyone. This includes mains of soup, salads, curry, stir fried dishes, noodles and rice, from the grill and seafood and also vegetarians dishes. Also if mains are not enough it also serves a range of appetisers, sides and desserts. For drinks there is a good selection of wines, cocktails and the usual soft drinks and coffees.

I have only visited this restaurant once with a friend even though I have walked past this restaurant many times as it is right in the middle of the city centre. I don't know why I haven't been more than once as I highly recommend to anyone. For starters, I had grilled pork skewers which were really good and perfect for an appetiser. For main we opted for the crispy duck salad which is one of the chefs signature dish and spicy seafood udon noodles. The salad was really nice and the dressing went really well with the salad and crispy duck. Even though the crispy duck makes the salad not so healthy, I would still definitely recommend you try it. the spicy seafood udon noodles were also delicious. the udon noodles were cooked perfectly and the seafood and flavour mixed well with the noodles with good flavour and again worth a try!

Overall, I would definitely recommend Chaophraya to anyone especially if you want to go somewhere fancy to eat. The restaurant looks stunning and the food is really good. The customer service is also good. Having only been to the restaurant once, I have not yet got bad views on the restaurant.
