This restaurants, which is located in Thonburi just off Charan Sanitwang, serves an outsanding array of Thai Isaan food that originates from Isaan, in the northwest of Thailand.

Apology accepted ;), but it was my own fault I know I should have called ahead. At least I got to see parts of Bangkok I’ve not seen before + the driver knew of another Isaan restaurant. So iIt’s all good. Keep up the good work man.
