Mama Mia!
It's true that Thai food is delicious
and there are many great places around
Khaosan Road to eat tasty authentic Thai
food. However, there are times when you
need a change and your stomach cries out
for a pizza or rich pasta dish. Luckily,
there are some great places to eat Italian
food around Khaosan Road.
If you want to savour the atmosphere
of Khaosan Road while you eat, look no
further than La Casa, located towards
the Buddy Lodge end of Khaosan Road. This
friendly, mock-traditional style restaurant
is open at the front so that you can look
out on the madness and mayhem of Khaosan
Road. The menu is reasonably priced, with
pasta and pizza dishes at around 200 baht.
The calzone is recommended, as are the
fish dishes, which come in a wide range
of sauces and styles.
Tel: 02-629-1627. Open daily 12:00- 24:00
Another great choice is the recently
opened Scoozi located to the left of Starbucks
on Sunset Street, which branches off Khaosan
Road. This modern styled restaurant features
a real clay pizza oven with a glass screen
so that you can observe the pizza being
made. This restaurant is for those who
love good service: each dish is perfectly
and professionally served and the waiters
are very attentive. There is light sala
music played in the background, a sports
screen and internet for those who just
want to sit with a cup of coffee and a
piece of one of the excellent cakes or
ice cream. Tel: 02-280-5280.
If you are looking for a stylish atmosphere
to relax with a cup of excellent coffee
and some good food, look no further than
Cafe Primavera, located at 56 Phra Sumen
Road, just a short walking distance from
Khoasan Road. Open since 1998, this restaurant
offers a wide variety of pizza and pasta
dishes, Viennese Applestrudel and relaxing
jazz music in the background. The set
lunch menus are a particularly good deal
as diners can choose from three set-menus
served between 11:30am and 2pm everyday.
Each consists of soup, salad, a main course,
soft drink and ice cream for just 175
to 225 baht. Tel: 02 - 281- 4718.
And of course, for those who want and
quick pizza fix, there are also branches
of Pizza Company and Pizza Hut to temp
weary travellers. The nearest branch of
Pizza Hut is on Phra Sumen Road and is
just a small take away outlet. The nearest
branch of Pizza Company is parallel to
Khaosan Road on Soi Rhambutri. This is
a much large restaurant with tables on
two floors and a large salad bar.
