I recently visited Chaophraya on Buchanan Street to celebrate my boyfriend’s 21st birthday! The food, atmosphere and service was fantastic and I would highly recommend dining at Chaophraya if you have a special occasion to celebrate!
The restaurant is on Buchanan Street, which is an ideal location as it is in the heart of the city centre, with both Central and Queen Street Station only a few minutes walk away. The building is really lovely from outside and has been decorated with a Thai theme.
To start, we ordered the Maeklong Platter, which was a selection of chicken satay, pork dumplings, chicken spring rolls, sweetcorn cakes and Thai vegetable tacos. We also ordered the Spare Ribs, the grilled pork ribs were marinated with fresh Thai herbs and homemade barbecue sauce, served with grilled pineapple. Delicious!
Then for my main I ordered the classic Chicken Pad Thai! This is the national dish of Thailand, it consists of stir-fried noodles in tamarind sauce with chicken, spring onions, carrots, egg, sweet turnip and bean sprouts.
