Torjiro 2011 (New Location)

Sukhumvit Soi 49/6 (Prompack)
Tel.02-261-5351
Opening Hours: 17:30-24:00

Torajiro’s new space covers the 2nd and 3rd floors of a large building. There is plenty of space, the walls are lined with bottles of alcohol. I have not spent enough time to observe, if like the Thonglor Soi 13 location, they are still getting the different types at different hours although I suspect not. A young woman in a very short, tight-fitting, red dress is pushing San Miguel Beer which,  is technically illegal in Thailand now due to the anti-alcohol campaign;  no one can prove it as there is no visible signage of the product on her clothing, but everyone knows anyway. The cooking is similar to what was served in the past at the old location and is not as good as at the Sukhumvit Soi 26 branch.

Prices: Very Inexpensive

This experience is akin to having “street food” in an air-conditioned room. That is how inexpensively priced the dishes are. The place is usually packed and with good reason: terrific food – low price!

Cafe Tartine Interior

The former café “Bread” is now know as Café Tartine, it is located a short distance from Ploen Chit Road on Soi Ruamruedee | 65 Wireless RoadBangkok 10330, Thailand, Tel. 662-1685464. It is a very bright, relaxing place to spend some time “soft dining” meaning; indulging in some light dishes and drinks in a friendly atmosphere while avoiding more complex dishes such as Quiche Lorraine for instance.
