Harmonique



Harmonique was a wonderful find on a walking trip though Bangkok - John Bush and more.  




What an amazing place to find! Walking along the back streets and then a sign and an old building 




- time for a coffee then (next time food). 


It clearly has a lot of history to the restaurant and unfortunately I can find nothing. 



There is a tree growing in the building and the restaurant is very popular with the Chinese Tourist currently.



Definitely worth visiting to have a look at the number of historical artifacts which are scattered throughout the rooms.

Fondue House and Much More


My father was here so it was a very good excuse to have a cheese fondue for dinner - and it was only around the corner - which did make it all the better.



It was delicious and the bread was continually replaced, great service - well there was nobody else there...




The deep fried brie was also very nice.



Then it was time for the chocolate fondue - by this time I had my fill but the kids loved it.

Odds Rock Steak


Odds Rock Steak was somewhere air-conditioned and convenient for me to visit after I had been on a trip on the river.


It looked like it was more of a Steakhouse in the evening but quiet in the day and I had a very pleasant green curry.


If it was convenient then I would visit again but not if I had to travel to it.

Lord of Coffee


Lord of Coffee is closer to our home than the centre of Bangkok, 




in fact I cycle there after having my haircut!

What a pleasant surprise - seating outside and I chose this because it was relatively cool this time. The coffee and the cake were both very nice and complimented each other - the coffee not too strong and not in need of sugar (or maybe it was the cake).



Was so impressed I bought some of these for my daughter.

Petit Peyton Traveloque Cafe


Petit Peyton Traveloque Cafe was somewhere which I gratefully stumble upon when I was attempting - Bangkok Walk 5 - Rattanoskin.



Wow it was impressive - friendly service and happy staff and I was only there for a coffee!




The Cafe is very European in design - I only noticed the name when I sat down!



Certainly going back there for lunch - the food looks attractive and I read that the Panini is made there and it's a hostel.

Sammakorn Market


Sammakorn Market is where we usually go to buy a few bits and pieces; clothes, fruit, DVD, shoes and a lot more - but today it was time for breakfast. And wow this was certainly a good breakfast it's at the back of the market amongst a great number of them.


This was above where you can sit but many people take theirs away in a plastic bag.


Choose the dish you want - there were only these two at this place.


Then add all those extra bits - a delicious breakfast / start of the day...
